Property Description
Discover an extraordinary riverfront lifestyle in historic Fort Denaud, where Old Florida character, modern luxury, botanical gardens and the beauty of the Caloosahatchee come together on 1.24 private, park-like acres. Located near the historic Fort Denaud swing bridge, this distinctive 3-level residence offers 2,599 sq. ft. of living area with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths and has been extensively remodeled inside and out by the current owners. Substantial steel-beam construction is complemented by architectural details rarely found in newer homes. The original cedar exterior siding was carefully restored rather than replaced, while beautiful original cypress boards bring warmth and character to the interior. Soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, a fireplace and expansive river and garden views create an exceptional setting for everyday living and entertaining. The ground level offers remarkable versatility with its own kitchen and full bath, allowing it to function independently as an efficiency/apartment, mother-in-law suite or private guest quarters, or seamlessly as part of the main residence. For large-scale entertaining, its kitchen also makes an ideal secondary prep kitchen or butler's pantry. Outside, the 1.24-acre grounds unfold as a mature tropical garden, creating the feeling of a private botanical retreat. Spectacular Royal Poinciana, fragrant Frangipani/Plumeria and distinctive Silk Floss trees are joined by lobster claw heliconia, flowering ginger and an array of established tropical specimens that bring changing color and texture throughout the landscape. Herbs, fruiting plants and mature bamboo add to the lush setting, with the bamboo forming a natural privacy screen. Years in the making, the landscape beautifully complements the home's Old Florida riverfront character. Then there is the river. From spectacular sunsets to the daily parade of boats, the Caloosahatchee provides a constantly changing backdrop. Watch anglers work the river while recreational boats, impressive yachts and commercial vessels travel this historic navigation corridor. Part of the Okeechobee Waterway, the river provides a navigable connection across Florida from the Gulf side to the Atlantic. Whether boating, fishing, jet skiing, waterskiing, tubing or simply watching an unforgettable Fort Denaud sunset from home, life here revolves around the water. The property enhances that experience with a covered boathouse, 29' lift and deep-water dockage for a larger vessel. A sophisticated gated entrance adds privacy with remotely controlled access, customizable entry codes, driver photographs and entry records. More than a beautifully remodeled riverfront residence, this is an opportunity to experience the authentic Fort Denaud lifestyle—restored cedar and cypress craftsmanship, mature botanical gardens, serious boating amenities, extraordinary sunsets and one of Southwest Florida's most fascinating waterways right outside your door.
