Priced with consideration for future updates, this 3BR/2BA home in Silverlakes at Gateway presents an excellent opportunity to purchase in one of Fort Myers most desirable gated communities at a compelling value. Recent pricing reflects both current market conditions and an estimated ~$13,000 in cosmetic updates, allowing buyers to personalize the home while aligning with updated comparable propertieswithout overpaying upfront.
A recent contractor estimate of approximately $13,000 for flooring replacement (carpet to vinyl) and interior/exterior paint provides buyers with a clear understanding of the scope needed to bring the home in line with updated comps in the neighborhood.
Located on a quiet, tree-lined street, the home offers a bright split-bedroom floor plan, abundant natural light, and functional living spaces. The layout includes an open great room, flexible dining area, and a kitchen with pantry, breakfast bar, and slide-out drawers. The primary suite features dual vanities, a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and walk-in closet. A covered lanai overlooks the fully fenced backyard.
