A stunning custom-built estate by Wyman Stokes, this remarkable residence in Verandah—one of Fort Myers’ premier gated golf communities—showcases craftsmanship and architectural detail that feel almost extinct in today’s building standards. This is a true one-of-a-kind home, rich in character and timeless charm, the kind of property that will only become more cherished and more valuable as the years go on. Simply put… they just don’t make them like this anymore. Perfectly positioned on a rare RIVERFRONT homesite, this estate sits on nearly 0.4 acres of manicured grounds and delivers an immediate “wow” with soaring 14-foot ceilings, solid wood 8-foot doors, and zero-corner sliders that dissolve the boundary between indoor luxury and outdoor living. The expansive lanai is a showpiece of its own—complete with a working fireplace, massive covered patio, resort-style pool, and waterfall spa—all overlooking lush, natural river views. A new roof upgraded exterior lighting, and beautifully curated landscaping elevate curb appeal to model-home perfection. Inside, the home feels immaculate—almost like new—boasting almost 3,000 square feet of refined living space designed for comfort, elegance, and effortless entertaining. The gourmet kitchen features a gas cooktop, center island, and generous storage, ideal for the chef who loves to host. Every corner of the home radiates quality, substance, and craftsmanship rarely seen today. And all of this is set within Verandah—a community that’s every bit as extraordinary as the home itself. With more than 1,400 acres of nature preserve, riverfront beauty, and Old Florida charm, Verandah blends luxury with authenticity in a way that feels increasingly rare. Residents enjoy two championship golf courses—one by Jack Nicklaus and one by Bob Cupp—along with a full tennis program, pickleball, bocce, kayak access on the Orange River (Kayaks are provided by the community – no need to bring your own), a dog park, and miles of scenic walking and biking trails shaded by ancient oak trees. At the heart of it all, the clubhouse and on-site restaurants create a warm, welcoming social hub, while the state-of-the-art fitness center and year-round events ensure that every day offers something new to enjoy. Verandah isn’t just a community—it’s a lifestyle defined by nature, connection, and timeless design. A rare place where the pace slows, the scenery inspires, and the homes—especially ones like this—are built with an attention to detail that stands the test of time. This estate is more than a home. It’s a statement. And opportunities like this don’t last.
