3728 Deleon Street, Fort Myers, FL 33901 - SW Florida Gulf Coast Properties

$349,900

SURPRISE … PLOT TWIST … THIS IS NOT THE DELEON YOU THINK YOU KNOW! Don’t let the address fool you—locals know that this part of Deleon tells a very different story! Some neighborhoods don’t need an introduction—they’re known by locals for their history, character, and the kind of homes that… Read More rarely change hands. Positioned near the Fort Myers Golf Course, this well-kept pocket is surrounded by mature shade trees, long-time pride of ownership and homes that feel established, peaceful and tucked away. Scale is a standout feature here, especially for this part of the city. Situated on an OVERSIZED (111’ X 140’) LOT, one of the LARGEST LOTS IN THE IMMEDIATE AREA, with a HUGE BACKYARD offering abundant space for gardening, play areas, outdoor entertaining or the addition of a FUTURE SWIMMING POOL—all beneath a canopy of mature shade trees. The garage is equally impressive and rarely found. Oversized two car, detached garage with 675 SQ FT (27’ X 25’) with GENERATOR HOOKUP plus a BONUS, DETACHED 12’ X 12’ SHED—ideal for garden tools, a hobby room or additional storage. This level of utility and flexibility adds real value and is becoming increasingly hard to find. Lovingly maintained and PRESERVED IN MOSTLY ITS ORIGINAL CONDITION by the original owner, this property this home offers a TRUE BLANK PALETTE with SO MUCH POTENTIAL. No trendy renovations to undo. No shortcuts taken. Just solid construction, generous proportions, and the freedom to create a home that reflects your own style and priorities. The floorplan features 3 BEDROOMS and 2 BATHROOMS, along with BOTH FORMAL AND INFORMAL LIVING AND DINING SPACES that allow the home to live comfortably and adapt to different lifestyles. A BONUS ROOM adds even more versatility and would make an excellent CHILDREN’S PLAYROOM, HOME GYM, OR HOME OFFICE. A WALL OF SLIDERS opens to the expansive green backyard, filling the interior with TONS OF NATURAL SUNLIGHT and creating an easy indoor-outdoor connection. Constructed of CONCRETE BLOCK, the home offers important peace-of-mind updates where it matters most. The SHINGLE ROOF was replaced in 2017, the HVAC SYSTEM in 2019, and the WATER HEATER in 2022—ALL THE BIG-TICKET ITEMS DONE FOR YOU. Accordion hurricane shutters protect the sliders, and the windows were replaced several years ago and sold to the owner at that time as impact glass. While they may not meet the latest hurricane impact standards, they are NOT ORIGINAL windows. Equally important, this home has EXPERIENCED NO FLOODING and MINIMAL STORM DAMAGE (only the ridge vent on storage shed). NOT IN A FLOOD ZONE. Exceptional convenience—just minutes to DOWNTOWN FORT MYERS EVENTS AND FESTIVALS, with easy access to FORT MYERS BEACH, SANIBEL ISLAND and RSW INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT—making everyday living and weekend plans equally effortless. This is an exceptional opportunity to EARN SWEAT EQUITY and transform a true diamond in the rough into your dream home. GO AHEAD … DRIVE BY AND SURPRISE YOURSELF! WE’LL WAIT 😉 Read Less
