About this home

Experience the ultimate Southwest Florida waterfront lifestyle in Alva at this stunning, fully remodeled estate! Perfectly positioned on navigable waters with direct access across Florida from coast to coast and west to the Gulf, this exceptional property offers luxury living, privacy, and unforgettable outdoor entertaining. This spacious residence features 4 bedrooms, a dedicated flex/office space, and an expansive entertainment room complete with a full-size pool table area, making it ideal for hosting family and guests. Since 2018, the home has undergone extensive high-end renovations showcasing polished slate flooring, upgraded shower and bath enclosures, new shutters and shutter blinds, upgraded French doors, and premium finishes throughout. The chef’s kitchen is equipped with all-new KitchenAid appliances, including a dual-temperature wine cooler/display unit, combining style and functionality for both everyday living and entertaining. Step outside to your own private resort-style oasis. The spectacular two-story screened lanai encloses a sparkling pool and jacuzzi while offering panoramic “picture window” views of the Caloosahatchee River, protected bay waters, and surrounding wildlife conservation area with no obstructing structural bars to interrupt the scenery. Designed for entertaining on a grand scale, the outdoor living space includes a barbecue and cooking area, dining space for 20+ guests, multiple lounging areas, custom paver walkways, solar ambiance lighting, ceiling fans, and upgraded stairways and flooring leading to the upper balcony with breathtaking waterfront views. Boating enthusiasts will appreciate the private dock, newly stained and painted dock areas, and direct Gulf access from this rare navigable waterfront setting. Additional premium features include four new climate-controlled HVAC systems with heating and cooling, an oversized heated and air-conditioned garage with room for two full-size vehicles, a whole-house reverse osmosis water system that is owned and routinely serviced, a separate attached utility/storage room, a new well pump and supply piping still under warranty, combination fan/light fixtures throughout occupied rooms, a screened front porch with ceiling fans, and updated fencing and exterior finishes. The beautifully landscaped grounds provide exceptional privacy with mature palms, oak trees, ornamental plantings, and 10-foot hedges along both sides of the property. With vacant lots on either side and a 15-acre open equestrian center across the street, this home offers a rare combination of seclusion, nature, and expansive views. From sunrise over the water to evenings spent poolside under glowing lantern lights, this extraordinary waterfront retreat delivers luxury Florida living at its finest. This home DID NOT FLOOD during the Hurricanes!
