Arguably the most extraordinary real estate offering in all of Southwest Florida, this residence in the private, gated enclave of Hidden Acres defies comparison. It is a rare amalgamation of every desirable element one might hope to find-yet seldom, if ever, are they found together. Within walking distance lies a private community boat ramp with direct Gulf access, allowing for effortless excursions to the open waters-yet this home itself is not on the water, sparing you the costly insurance premiums and upkeep typically associated with waterfront living. Here, you may keep horses-with a horse stall available and gentle steeds grazing along the fence line at the edge of your expansive, nearly half-acre property. You may swim in your private pool, play tennis, stroll by the community pond and gazebo, or enjoy tranquil afternoons in the community park beside the Gulf-access canal-all within your own community. The private movie set-like road is shaded by towering live oaks draped in Spanish moss, evoking the nostalgic charm of another era. During the holidays, the neighborhood transforms into a living tableau-Halloween becomes a local pilgrimage for families, and Christmas glows like a Norman Rockwell painting come to life. The home itself spans 2,187 square feet of well-planned living space with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a spacious enclosed lanai overlooking the fenced-in pool and sweeping backyard. Your new home offers a formal living room, large family room, and the kitchen space is simply a chef's dream. Constructed of concrete block, it includes a large laundry room and ample natural light throughout. Behind the home runs a "bridal walk", inviting morning rides or evening walks beneath whispering oaks. Currently, there are no homes for sale in Hidden Acres, as the residents simply do not want to move. When you are looking out over your pool, across your massive backyard, and see the horses hanging their heads over your fence, waiting for you to come say hello, you will understand why homes in Hidden Acres are rarely available for sale. Hidden Acres further provides designated storage for boats, RVs, or campers, allowing residents to keep their recreational treasures close at hand-a luxury seldom permitted within city limits. This gated community offers the serenity of country living with the convenience of city proximity-mere minutes from shopping, dining, schools, and downtown Fort Myers, and less than a mile from Cape Coral. Yet once inside the gates, it feels as though you've entered another world-a tranquil retreat hidden within the heartbeat of Southwest Florida. Opportunities to purchase within Hidden Acres are exceedingly rare; most residents remain for decades, reluctant to relinquish their piece of this cinematic paradise. Launch your boat to the Gulf, walk your horse, and play tennis, on the same day. For the discerning buyer, this is not simply a home-it is a lifestyle, an experience, and a story waiting to be lived.
