9800 Horne Lane $769,000

Located in the Village of Estero, this unique oversized 1.25-acre property exudes Old Florida charm with mature landscaping, including moss-draped oaks, palms, and pine trees, and privacy hedges, creating a serene, park-like retreat. This property is zoned Agriculture and is the perfect location to anchor your business with convenient commutes to both Fort Myers and Naples. Its centralized location ensures easy access to upscale shopping, dining, entertainment, and outdoor recreation. You can walk to the Community Center and excellent shopping and restaurants within a couple of miles. The elevated split-level ranch home features nearly 1,400 sq. ft. of main living space upstairs with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, doubled by a mostly finished lower level of equal size. While the main living areas are move-in ready, future exterior and downstairs remodeling projects provide a chance to tailor the space to your needs. Recent upgrades reflect thoughtful craftsmanship, including a fully remodeled kitchen (2022) with quartz countertops, a marble and mother-of-pearl backsplash, and a custom walnut and brass-trimmed vent hood. The guest bathroom has also been beautifully updated, and the front stairs and porch were newly renovated in 2024. The great room features a vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling, adding to the home’s charm. The property’s additional features are truly unique, including a 1,200 sq. ft. steel outbuilding (2019) with 12-foot doors, perfect for housing an RV, boat, or commercial equipment. Other updates include a climate-controlled "she-shed" (2020) and large carport (2019). The paved patio and gardener’s staging area for orchids or other favorite plants, other projects, or playhouse (2018), further enhance the outdoor appeal and provide versatile spaces for hobbies and relaxation. Key updates include two new Trane HVAC systems (2023), a new septic system and drain field (2018), and a pole barn for additional storage. Located in the X500 Flood Zone for added peace of mind, this property offers a rare opportunity to blend privacy, accessibility, and business potential in a coveted Southwest Florida location on a generous sized lot, which is a rare find in the area.
