Discover the perfect blend of country living and modern convenience on this exceptional one-owner estate nestled on nearly 10 picturesque acres in Fort Myers. Zoned AG-2, this lovingly maintained property offers endless possibilities for horse enthusiasts, buyers looking for a working property, livestock owners, or anyone seeking privacy, space, and the freedom to enjoy a true rural lifestyle—all just minutes from shopping, dining, I-75, and Southwest Florida International Airport. Built in 1980 and well maintained by its original owners for more than four decades, this cherished family property reflects a lifetime of pride in ownership and careful stewardship. This 2,337-square-foot home features 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, multiple spacious living areas, a formal dining room, a cozy breakfast nook, and a welcoming family room centered around a beautiful brick fireplace. Large windows in the formal living room and bedrooms frame peaceful views of the surrounding acreage, while mature yellow pines and majestic oak trees create a tranquil Old Florida setting. Step outside and discover everything this remarkable property has to offer. The property's covered outdoor kitchen or "Cook Shack" creates the ultimate outdoor gathering space. Complete with a metal roof, built-in charcoal grill with chimney, running water, electricity, and room to entertain, it's the perfect place for family fish fries, backyard barbecues, holiday celebrations, and making memories that will last a lifetime. The impressive pole barn provides exceptional flexibility with an air-conditioned office, additional air-conditioned center room, workshop, half bathroom, laundry tubs, and electricity throughout—ideal for a home business, workshop, hobby space, or equipment storage. Animal lovers will appreciate the fenced acreage, complete with hog wire fencing surrounding both the homesite and the property's interior perimeter. A separate, open-air dog kennel building, equipped with electricity and running water, offers endless possibilities for breeding, boarding, livestock, poultry, or other agricultural uses. A freshwater pond enhances the front of the property, while a separate storage shed provides additional space for tools and equipment. Recent improvements include a new A/C compressor (March 2026), brand-new septic sump pump and aerator, allowing the next owner to enjoy peace of mind. Whether you envision a private family estate, a working farm, equestrian property, or simply a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature, this exceptional property offers endless possibilities. Properties like this rarely become available—offering nearly 10 fenced acres, AG-2 zoning, mature trees, extensive outbuildings, and the opportunity to create your own private country retreat in the heart of Fort Myers.
