home Property Description
This beautifully reimagined 3-bedroom home with a private den offers exceptional space, refined design, and panoramic views of the championship Bobcat Golf Course and tranquil lake in the sought-after Forest Country Club community. The expansive great room (approximately 32’ x 35’) features soaring cathedral ceilings and flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, complemented by wide-plank porcelain tile flooring throughout the main living spaces, family room, hallways, laundry, and workshop. The designer kitchen showcases Carrara marble countertops and coordinating marble backsplash, high-end shaker-style cabinetry with soft-close drawers and pull-outs, a large breakfast counter seating up to eight, and a premium LG stainless steel appliance suite including a French-door oversized refrigerator, 36” electric cooktop, dual wall ovens (one doubling as a microwave), and a quiet interior dishwasher, along with a built-in buffet and china cabinet with wine cooler. The private owner’s suite features 10’ tray ceilings and a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, a zero-entry oversized walk-in shower, freestanding soaking tub, private water closet, and generous storage including an extra-large linen closet and walk-in closet, while the rare triple split floor plan provides outstanding privacy with each bedroom located in a separate area of the home and offering access to a full bathroom. Outdoor living is designed for year-round enjoyment with a heated pool (18’ x 36’) enclosed by a child-lock screened fence, spacious pool deck, additional concrete patio, custom under-truss screened party room with 9’ ceilings and dual exits, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen featuring dual grills, sink, refrigerator, granite countertops, stone and aluminum backsplashes, LED lighting, fans, stainless steel exhaust, concrete flooring, and a mounted 55” TV. Additional highlights include an 85” flat-screen TV with Sonos speakers in the family room, custom window treatments, plantation shutters, roll-down rear shades, insulated honeycomb blinds in the den, custom woodwork, designer hardware and lighting, an oversized ice-glass chandelier, a spacious two-car garage with epoxy floors, insulated hurricane-rated garage doors, side service door, paver driveway, screened double-door entry, and lush mature landscaping. The home experienced flooding during Hurricane Ian only and has not flooded during any other hurricane. Located within the gated Forest Country Club community, residents enjoy optional membership with new resident incentives, two Audubon-certified championship golf courses, tennis, sidewalks, parks, manned entry gates, a pet-friendly environment allowing up to three pets, and a prime location near coffee shops and restaurants, just 15 minutes to RSW Airport, 20 minutes to Sanibel, and 25 minutes to Fort Myers Beach. Not an over-55 community.
