Quiet, country living, yet only minutes away from beautiful downtown Ft. Myers and close to nature parks and access to the Caloosahatchee Intercoastal Waterway and State Rte 80. This charming custom-built home features a built in fireplace, large lanai, on 2.5 acres with its own fishing pond. Home also offers a great opportunity to relax while watching the sun rise from the lanai or the majestic sunsets sitting on the front porch, or spend cool evenings in front of the wood-burning fireplace. Location is close to the famous Alva Diner, WP Franklin Lock Recreation area, Hickey Creek Mitigation Park, Caloosahatchee regional Park, Alva Community Park, and yet not far from the conveniences of the big city. The owner designed the floor-plan and had the home custom-built. Electric utilities from edge of property to the house are underground and all construction meets the latest hurricane standards. Move-in ready.
