Experience the ultimate Southwest Florida waterfront lifestyle at this extraordinary custom riverfront estate. Privately set on 2 fully fenced acres along the Caloosahatchee River in Alva, the property combines protected dockage, expansive outdoor living, and clean, modern architectural design to create your own private resort. It offers approximately 4,200 square feet between the main home and poolside cabana, along with 125 feet of protected oxbow frontage. Built in 2015 and featured in Grandeur magazine, the home was thoughtfully designed for boating, entertaining, and comfortable everyday living. The main home offers approximately 3,800 square feet with 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, two large bonus rooms, an oversized 1,100 square foot three car garage, and a 1,000 square foot covered lanai. Polished concrete floors, clean lines, and an efficient layout maximize water views, functionality, and usable living space. Completed in 2021, the separate 400 square foot poolside cabana includes a full bath, a spacious bonus room currently used as a gym, and a true summer kitchen with an EVO grill, searing grill, Big Green Egg, nugget ice maker, beverage refrigerator, and beautiful river views. Just outside, the heated pool features a waterfall and rock slide, along with an oversized heated spa large enough for a crowd. The expansive dock includes an outside slip for up to a 60 foot vessel, an inside slip for up to a 40 foot vessel, 50 amp shore power, Tide Slides that automatically adjust with changing tides, and a fish cleaning station. The protected oxbow location provides direct river access while shielding boats from the constant wake and traffic of the main channel. The fully fenced grounds feature mature oaks, park like landscaping, landscape lighting, a large driveway with excellent guest parking, raised garden beds, an open air barn, and a spacious front field for sports and recreation. Built with hurricane preparedness in mind, the home sits at more than 9 feet of elevation, and the living areas remained high and dry during Hurricane Ian. A 20 kW solar PV system with 6 Enphase batteries provides backup power for essential systems, including air conditioning. During Ian, the home maintained uninterrupted power even as many nearby generators flooded or failed. As an added benefit, the system reduces monthly utility costs by approximately 50 to 75 percent depending on the season, even while charging two EVs. Additional features include Starlink internet with fiber now also available, Sonos audio throughout, whole home reverse osmosis providing bottled water quality at every faucet and shower, and a second well for irrigation. Furnishings are negotiable, allowing the property to be nearly move in ready if desired.

Where Acreage Meets Elegance on the River – An Iconic Alva Legacy Estate Set just west of the Franklin Locks, this extraordinary riverfront estate is a rare offering where expansive acreage, historic character, & navigable waterfront converge—something seldom found in SWFL. Spanning nearly 26 acres with approximately 850 feet of Caloosahatchee River frontage, this is not simply a property—it is a private sanctuary of scale, presence, and possibility. A long, winding drive introduces the estate with a sense of arrival reserved for truly distinguished properties. Towering oaks, open pastures, & sweeping river views create a landscape that feels both grand & timeless—an increasingly rare combination of usable acreage & deep-water access. At the center of the estate stands a stately 1926 residence encompassing 3,577 square feet under air, rich in architectural heritage & refined character. Soaring 14+ foot ceilings, multiple fireplaces, and thoughtfully preserved details evoke a level of craftsmanship that cannot be replicated. A breezeway-connects the 4-car garage for both elegance and practicality. Complementing the main residence is a separate 3-bedroom, 2-bath caretaker’s home offering approximately 1,036 square feet—ideal for extended guests, or private staff quarters. Designed for those who value both lifestyle and land, the estate is fully equipped for equestrian/agricultural pursuits. Multiple fenced pastures, coupled with a striking barn.

A defining feature of this estate is the 60x60 Quonset structure— a rare opportunity for large-scale storage, a collector’s showroom, or workshop. Just steps away is also an RV hookup. Few properties offer such a distinctive and adaptable asset. Along the river’s edge, is a 80 foot floating dock extending your living experience onto the water—perfect for boating, fishing, or accommodating larger vessels. With direct access to the Caloosahatchee River & beyond, this property delivers the kind of waterfront lifestyle typically reserved for far denser, far less private locations—yet here, it is paired with nearly 26 acres of open land. In a region where true riverfront acreage estates are increasingly scarce, this offering stands apart. It is the uncommon blend of privacy, scale, navigable waterfront, & historic elegance that defines legacy properties—& makes them nearly impossible to replicate. This is more than a residence. It is a generational estate—where land, water, and timeless design meet in perfect harmony. PID #'S: 14-43-26-00-00008.0000, 14-43-26-00-00008.1010, 23-43-26-00-00002.0000
