Originally built in 1951 and completely reimagined from the studs out, this beautifully renovated three-bedroom, two-bath Fort Myers residence with 1,258 square feet of living area delivers the feel and confidence of a newly transformed home while preserving the character and setting of an established neighborhood. Positioned on an oversized .26-acre corner homesite less than two miles from Downtown Fort Myers, the home has undergone an extensive renovation encompassing the major systems, exterior and interior living spaces. Improvements include new plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roof, siding, soffits and seamless gutters, along with hurricane-impact windows and hurricane-rated exterior doors-giving buyers the advantage of having many of the significant improvements today's homeowners value already completed. Inside, the transformation continues with a light-filled great room designed for comfortable everyday living and entertaining. The beautifully appointed kitchen features quartz countertops, extensive custom cabinetry and new appliances. Carefully selected finishes include luxury vinyl plank and travertine tile, complemented by restored original Miami-Dade pine flooring, preserving a distinctive connection to the home's 1951 character while surrounded by extensive modern updates. The primary suite features a custom walk-in closet with built-in shelving, designer vanity and glass-enclosed shower. A separate dining room opens through hurricane-impact sliding doors to a private brick-paver patio, extending the living space outdoors. A covered front porch, private wood deck off the primary bedroom and professionally landscaped surroundings further enhance the home's relaxed Florida lifestyle. Adding another important layer of confidence are a Builder Warranty, transferable AC Warranty, termite warranty and one-year home warranty. Located near the historic McGregor corridor, Fort Myers Country Club and the dining, entertainment and waterfront destinations of the Downtown River District, 1755 Oakley Avenue offers a compelling opportunity: the charm and established character of a 1951 Fort Myers home, extensively transformed from the studs out with the modern improvements today's buyers seek, all within convenient reach of the best of Fort Myers.
