About this home
OLD FORT MYERS – Timeless Florida charm meets thoughtful updates at this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom plus den, 2-bath residence ideally situated just off historic McGregor Boulevard. An inviting front lanai and expansive circular drive create a welcoming first impression, while inside, vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light lend an open, airy feel throughout. The spacious floor plan offers comfortable everyday living with the added flexibility of a den, ideal for a home office, library, or additional guest space. A well-appointed kitchen and updated baths complement the home’s classic character, while significant improvements including impact windows, updated electrical and plumbing, a new water heater, and a recently sealed roof provide added peace of mind. Designed for the Florida lifestyle, a large under-truss lanai extends the living space outdoors and overlooks a private, tropical backyard—an ideal setting for entertaining, dining al fresco, or simply unwinding at the end of the day. The generously sized yard offers plenty of usable outdoor space, including room along the side of the home for boat or RV storage. Enjoy one of Fort Myers’ most desirable and established neighborhoods, just a short walk or golf cart ride from Fort Myers Country Club and only minutes from the vibrant Downtown River District with its restaurants, shops, galleries, entertainment, and waterfront attractions. A wonderful combination of location, character, updates, and relaxed Old Florida living. See it today!

Allen Park, located between McGregor Boulevard and US-41, is a historic and residential Fort Myers neighborhood with a leafy street grid and a river-adjacent setting. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the McGregor Boulevard corridor near the Edison and Ford Winter Estates, where palms, sidewalks, and small galleries set a calm, curated pace. Early-20th-century bungalows and mid-century ranch homes sit behind mature trees, giving blocks a settled, architectural rhythm. Riverside streets lead toward pocket parks and the Caloosahatchee shoreline. Cultural gravity comes from the Edison and Ford Winter Estates, the Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center, and the Florida Repertory Theatre. Downtown’s dining and arts scene sits a short drive east, while McGregor keeps the daily backdrop green and quiet.
