Property Description

Under contract-accepting backup offers. Adorable 1948 historic cottage in coveted Edison Park, offering 3 bedrooms, 2 completely remodeled baths, a den and a separate flex space in 1,344 square feet of concrete block construction, charm that only a historic home can offer, paired with the updates that matter. Inside, a split bedroom floor plan delivers privacy, with walk-in closets, French doors, and new interior doors and hardware throughout. The den works as a home office, library or nursery, and the separate flex space off the sunporch adds usable square footage most homes at this price don't have. Laminate flooring runs through the living areas, bedrooms and kitchen, with tile in the baths and utility room. Kitchen pantry, interior laundry and window coverings are all in place. The big-ticket items are already handled: roof and windows replaced approximately 2014, HVAC and water heater both 2022, and both baths completely remodeled. Outside, a gorgeous shady oak anchors the front yard, while the private backyard is newly fenced and room to add a pool. A 2-car carport with exterior storage covers the practical side, all on a landscaped .17-acre. This property also includes storm protection for all windows. Location sets this one apart. Edison Park Elementary sits directly across the street, downtown Fort Myers is minutes away, and restaurants and entertainment are within walking distance. The Edison and Ford winter estates are just down the road, this is the neighborhood where they once roamed. Edison Park is a designated historic district, with designations and limitations in place which is exactly why the street still looks the way it does. Historic homes here don't come up often.

These images are the remodeled kitchen with the island, and the large primary suite that was created by combining the two bedrooms on the west side of the home.
