Property Description
Location! Location! Location! Private tropical oasis, multigenerational family compound, or boutique resort? This property offers endless possibilities. Not a duplex, but two separate homes with three living spaces, totaling 2195 sqft with 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and 4 garages. Cypress Cottage and Creekside Cottage share a custom elevated pool on Hendry Creek with direct Gulf access. The dock includes a 500 sqft boathouse with a 10,000lb lift, just a 20-minute boat ride to Lovers Key and Dog Beach. A 5-minute walk to Lakes Park, this property is in a quiet, desirable neighborhood near Health Park and Gulf Coast medical corridors and shopping. These historic cottages, originally rental units of the Pink Shell Resort from the 1950s, were relocated here in 1979. The large lot offers ample parking with three driveways on two streets. Cypress Cottage has 1 bedroom, 2 bathrooms, a library loft, and an elevator leading to a nonconforming mother-in-law studio with a full bath and kitchen. The garage features a walk-through elevator, and the cottage was completely remodeled in 2014, using repurposed Dade County Pine and new materials like James Hardie siding, impact resistant windows and doors, Carrier mini-split A/C units. The interior boasts a great room with high ceilings, a live edge Burled Cypress table, modern appliances, and custom finishes. Creekside Cottage has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a full kitchen, laundry, and a large 2-car garage. In 2023, it received a new standing seam metal roof, an attic space for potential expansion, and updated insulation and siding. Both cottages share a pool deck with an in-pool bar, summer kitchen, and various amenities like a gas BBQ, wood-fired pizza oven, and a stainless sink. Both cottages and the boathouse have commercial-grade standing seam metal roofs. The pool area features Trek composite decking, a saltwater pool with Jewelscape glass bead lining, a swim jet for exercise or lazy river, four bar stools, a granite bar, and a tiki hut with a 43” TV. This unique offering in south Ft. Myers, surrounded by state-protected preserves and waterways, ensures a highly coveted location with direct Gulf access and restricted future development.
