*** WAKE UP TO THE RIVER! *** Picture your mornings on the open lanai, coffee in hand, as the Caloosahatchee drifts by, and your evenings watching sunsets paint the water gold right outside your door. With DIRECT GULF ACCESS and NO BRIDGES, the river is your gateway to the Gulf. Step inside and an $85K custom renovation (Dec 2024 - Jan 2025) makes this home feel brand new. The kitchen was completely reimagined with custom cabinetry, bespoke appliances and a breakfast bar made for easy mornings. The bathroom is a spa-like retreat with a floating vanity, all-new tile and a high-end bidet toilet. Custom woodwork on the shelves and walls adds warmth and character, while new flooring, fresh paint, custom window shades and a full plumbing update mean there is nothing left to do but unpack. Even better, the washer and dryer are right inside the unit, a rare find in River Garden. Professionally staged and truly MOVE-IN READY. River Garden is a small, quiet, park-like community where life revolves around the water. Cast a line from the fishing pier, launch your kayak, tie up at the community boat dock or gather with neighbors at the clubhouse and BBQ area. Peace of mind comes standard with concrete block construction, roofs replaced in 2022 and a seawall from 2019, and the monthly fee covers insurance, water, irrigation, lawn care and exterior pest control. Your assigned carport is steps away, and pets are welcome too (up to 2, 25 lb max). When you are ready for a night out, historic DOWNTOWN FORT MYERS is just minutes away. Stroll the brick streets of the River District, catch the monthly Art Walk and Music Walk, enjoy a show at the Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center, explore the Edison & Ford Winter Estates, or dine and dance along the riverfront. It is the best of both worlds: peaceful river living with all the energy of downtown close by. Your riverfront lifestyle starts here!
