A sense of timeless elegance unfolds the moment you enter this riverfront estate. Dramatic bishop arches at the entry signal architectural distinction. Positioned on a rare curved lot with southwestern exposure, the property captures sweeping river views, abundant natural light, and unforgettable sunsets. Built in 2016 by renowned Naples custom builder Arthur Rutenberg, the residence offers 5,173 square feet of elevated living space, distinguished craftsmanship, and effortless indoor-outdoor living. Architectural design is celebrated throughout, with extra-wide hallways and a dramatic double-wide staircase creating a sense of scale and grandeur rarely found in residential design. Moving through the home feels less like passing from room to room and more like strolling the grounds of a luxury resort. Inside, hand-distressed hickory flooring creates a sophisticated foundation, while expansive windows frame river views from nearly every room. The open-concept design centers around a spectacular chef’s kitchen featuring double islands, walnut cabinetry with live-edge detailing, and generous entertaining space. Behind the refrigerator, a completely concealed extra-large walk-in pantry is seamlessly integrated into the cabinetry, offering exceptional storage without interrupting the kitchen’s refined design. The home offers five bedrooms, a dedicated den, four-and-a-half bathrooms. Thoughtful custom details continue throughout, including stained-pine wood ceilings and a true wood-burning fireplace. A double-insulated wall separates the master suite from the main living area, providing excellent sound reduction and creating a peaceful retreat. Designed for resilience, the home has not experienced flooding during previous hurricanes, offering added peace of mind in its elevation, construction quality, and integrity. Modern amenities include impact windows, Storm Smart screens, three air-conditioning systems, three tankless water heaters, a 500-gal. buried propane tank, and a Kinetico whole-home water filtration system. Outdoor living embraces the Florida lifestyle with an expansive pool and spa deck and an outdoor shower. Boaters will appreciate deep-water access and convenient routes to the Gulf and Beaches. The dock has been replaced, while the covered boathouse includes a 7,500-pound boat lift accommodating a boat up to 30 ft, with room for a guest boat up to 40 ft. A substantial double capped seawall reaches approximately 12 ft in total height, providing an impressive waterfront foundation. Ideally located just off historic McGregor Boulevard, this extraordinary residence offers convenient access to downtown Fort Myers, dining, parks, schools, and everyday amenities. With its custom construction, resort-like scale, exceptional river views, and refined waterfront amenities, this is a rare opportunity to experience luxury riverfront living at its finest.
