Property Description

Set on more than two gated acres of 100 percent uplands in Golden Gate Estates, Sapphire Estate combines distinctive architecture with expansive indoor and outdoor living spaces. A signature blue roof defines the single-story residence, while an automatic entrance gate, circular driveway and covered porte-cochère complement the property's setting. Encompassing 2,574 square feet of living space, the home features three bedrooms, a den, three full baths and one half bath. Vaulted ceilings, French doors and chandelier lighting accentuate the open floor plan, creating a natural connection between the interior living areas. The kitchen is appointed with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas cooktop, walk-in pantry and eat-in dining area. A new air-conditioning system installed in 2025 and a multi-stage water filtration system provide additional functionality. Beyond the French doors, a screened lanai surrounds a saltwater pool featuring a shallow wading area and integrated water feature. Mature fruit trees enhance the grounds, while a 46-by-18-foot covered recreational vehicle parking area with electrical hookup accommodates additional vehicle or boat storage. With its gated acreage, architectural character and outdoor amenities, Sapphire Estate presents a distinctive residential offering in Naples Golden Gate Estates.

About Golden Gate Estates

Buyers that are seeking privacy, lots of space, and flexibility will always look at Golden Gate Estates. The Estates is a huge residential area in Naples with expansive lot sizes (most between 1.14 acres and 5 acres) in a rural atmosphere. The Estates sits east of I-75 and is not gated. There is not an HOA in Golden Gate Estates so you will not have to pay HOA fees or abide by the rules they impose.

For buyers wanting the freedom to do what they like, the Estates is a really great option. Many residents have horses, boats, RV's and other things that would never be allowed in a typical Naples HOA neighborhood. Many have berms built to allow for gun ranges. Others even build guest houses or workshops on their land. We have sold multiple homes that have large outbuildings with some being 30' by 90' in size! Residents really are allowed to do what they like which makes this a very popular part of town to purchase.

A really great aspect of Golden Gate Estates is that there really is something for everybody. Homes range in size with some over 8,000 square feet! There are a lot of uncleared lots so buyers with specific tastes can purchase and build their specific dream home. In fact, we have family that has done this 4 times in the past few years!

Golden Gate Estates appeals to buyers looking for a different lifestyle than what is typically found in Naples’ gated communities. Some of the main reasons buyers choose the Estates include:

  • Large lot sizes and acreage

  • No HOA fees or restrictive community rules in many areas

  • Privacy and distance from neighbors

  • Room for boats, RVs, workshops, and recreational equipment

  • Opportunities for new construction homes

  • Access to nature and outdoor recreation

For buyers seeking space, flexibility, and privacy while still living within reach of the beaches and amenities of Naples, Golden Gate Estates provides one of the most unique real estate opportunities in Southwest Florida.
