About 5256 Willow Ct

Price Adjustment! Great opportunity for Gulf access and boating at a fantastic price. No HOA, use as investment property, vacation home or rent the slip. Location! Just a couple minutes from the Cape Coral Bridge in the SW area of the Cape for quick access to Ft Myers, RSW, and US41. This completely renovated home is in the charming and historic Yacht Club neighborhood. This home sits on a wide, deep canal with just one bridge to navigate on the way to the Caloosahatchee River and the Gulf of Mexico/America. Beach lovers will rejoice with the Yacht Club Community Center and beach only 5 minutes away, while the best of Cape Coral is just 10 minutes from the Cape Coral Bridge, putting dining, shopping, and entertainment in downtown Fort Myers at your doorstep. Enjoy the flexibility with no lease limits or restrictive HOA rules, giving you the freedom to rent it out when you're not using it—while also enjoying personal access anytime you want. Affordable flights from the Midwest and East Coast make this the perfect weekend retreat from the cold winter months. Big things are also happening at the Yacht Club Community area! The community center, boat slips, and tennis courts are undergoing a massive transformation, turning the area into a waterfront paradise. While the community center is under transformation, locals can still gather on the beach each evening to watch and celebrate sunset. This low-maintenance, 2-bedroom, 2-bath home has a few remaining trim details but the heavy lifting is done! When not boating, dining or sightseeing, you can step outside to your private dock and unwind as you watch the sunset and spot the occasional dolphin or manatee swim by. Don't miss out on this one-of-a-kind opportunity! Schedule a showing today—either in person or via FaceTime. Your dream home is waiting for you!
