Welcome to 5844 Riverside Lane. Experience timeless elegance in this exquisite old-world estate designed by renowned architect W.A. Bud Lawrence. Perfectly positioned along the Caloosahatchee River, this home exudes charm and character unlike any other property on the market today. Boasting an exceptionally rare 177 feet of river frontage and an expansive backyard complete with a basketball court, the sense of space, privacy, and exclusivity is unmatched. With over 4,800 square feet of living area, the home features four generously sized bedrooms, an upstairs den, a temperature-controlled library, a TV room, a formal dining area, a breakfast nook with some of the best views in the home, and a grand living room with soaring ceilings. Step outside the kitchen to discover multiple intimate courtyard seating areas that evoke the ambiance of a Mediterranean villa. The pool area offers breathtaking river views, a comfortable pool size, and ample deck space for lounging or entertaining. Distinctive architectural details include copper gutters, Venetian plaster walls, tongue-and-groove wood beam ceilings, hand-carved solid wood doors, custom metal railings, authentic buckshot-detailed wood floors, Mexican Saltillo tile, and Chicago brick accents throughout. Modern upgrades complement the craftsmanship, including a new tile roof (2023), new dock (2023), newer HVAC systems, impact-rated windows and doors, premium kitchen appliances, and a 500-gallon buried propane tank. Constructed entirely of concrete block on both levels, this home offers enduring built quality and strength rarely found in homes today. Located in the Sunset Cove neighborhood off of McGregor Boulevard, one of Fort Myers’ most coveted waterfront enclaves, this residence provides convenient access to Downtown Fort Myers, Sanibel Island, Fort Myers Beach, RSW International Airport, premier shopping and dining, top-rated schools, and so much more. Embrace the unmatched lifestyle offered at 5844 Riverside Lane where old-world craftsmanship meets modern luxury on the banks of the Caloosahatchee.
