Looking for the perfect setup to work hard, play harder, and live free? Welcome to BRIARCLFF — one of the most popular spots in Lee County. What makes Briarcliff a local favorite? It offers the charm of rural living without the hassle of a long drive to the country—plus the added bonus of no City of Fort Myers property taxes or strict usage rules. That means you’re free to park your RV, boat, or trailer right on your land. You can even plant a garden, raise chickens, or possibly keep other homesteading animals—enjoying the kind of freedom that’s hard to find closer to town. This rare 1.25-acre property comes fully loaded with a custom 4-bedroom, 3-bath pool home, an attached 2-car garage, and an incredible 1,260-square-foot detached workshop with two commercial overhead doors, a private air conditioned office, and separate entrance — ideal set up for a small business owner, craftsman, artist or homesteader who’s ready to spread out and grow. Inside, you’ll find 3,279 square feet of flexible, quality-built living space, including a huge 26’ x 15’ home office/family room addition with French doors to the pool. The addition area also has the fourth bedroom and a bonus walk-in storage closet (12x6) that doubles as a safe room (solid poured concrete room). Whether you need an epic home office, a creative studio, a playroom, or a potential in-law suite, the layout delivers serious versatility. At the heart of this home is a wonderful kitchen designed for serious cooking and gathering, with beautiful staggered wood cabinetry crowned with molding, pull-out shelving, granite countertops, and a cabinet front hidden walk-in pantry. High-end appliances like the GE Profile fridge, Wolf cooktop, double wall ovens, and Bosch dishwasher make everyday living and entertaining a breeze. An informal dining area, formal dining room, and large living spaces offer plenty of room for family and guests. Originally built in 1995, this home was thoughtfully expanded with a gorgeous pool and lanai addition in 2002, and the back office/guest suite in 2006. Extras: crown molding, Manabloc plumbing system, hurricane shutters, sprinkler system, concrete block construction, two A/C units, and a dimensional shingle roof installed in 2018. The home is being offered furnished (with just a few small exceptions) — giving you a move-in ready opportunity to start living the Briarcliff lifestyle. While the structure and systems are strong, a little TLC — including fresh interior and exterior paint and a few minor stucco and trim touch-ups — will really make this gem shine again. If you’ve been waiting for the ultimate combination of home, workshop, and land — in one of Fort Myers’ most convenient, flexible and popular areas — this is it! Close to everything essential, but with room to live the life you’ve been dreaming of. You will enjoy quick access to the best of Southwest Florida—beaches, shopping, dining, and the international airport are all just a short, convenient drive away.
