Tucked away on more than an acre, this one-of-a-kind Florida retreat offers privacy, character and an elevated sense of seclusion amid mature tropical landscaping. Surrounded by lush vegetation and a newly cleared backyard, the home blends a distinctive woodland setting with extensive updates inside and out and is conveniently located in the heart of North Naples, just minutes from shopping & dining and less than 8 miles to the gorgeous white sand beaches of Naples, FL.
The upper level features an open-concept kitchen and great room with fireplace, three spacious bedrooms, two full baths and conveniently located laundry. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with stone countertops, a farmhouse sink, upgraded faucet and stainless steel appliances, while new LVP flooring extends throughout the upstairs living areas and bedrooms. Fresh paint, new trim and thoughtful millwork add to the home's updated feel, including wainscoting and custom trim detailing in one of the bedrooms. The guest bath has also been refreshed with a new tub and tile. The home also features a whole-house water softener system and reverse osmosis system for high-quality drinking water.
Connecting the two levels is a striking new steel floating staircase with solid white oak treads, creating an architectural focal point within the home. Because the home is elevated, the expansive ground level offers an impressive amount of additional space and tremendous flexibility. This entire lower level has undergone a complete transformation with new drywall, trim, paint, LED lighting, a new entry door and new sliding glass door, while polished concrete floors provide a clean, contemporary finish. Currently offering a family room, a large flex space previously used as an office, and a full bathroom, there is ample room to easily create a fourth bedroom. With its generous square footage and separate living areas, the lower level also presents exciting potential for a private guest suite or apartment-style space with a bedroom, sitting area and the possibility of adding a kitchenette, ideal for extended family, guests, a home office or additional living space.
Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a wraparound upper deck providing plenty of room for grilling, dining and relaxing amid the surrounding greenery. The front deck has been rebuilt along with the side and rear staircases, and the entire exterior has been freshly painted. Additional improvements include a new impact window above the staircase and 5-foot black vinyl-coated fencing extending from the home to the rear of the property.
With ample parking and turnaround space for multiple vehicles or a boat, plus plenty of room to add a pool, this unique property offers space, privacy and flexibility that's increasingly hard to find. A beautifully updated retreat where modern finishes meet the natural beauty of Florida living.
