About 5851 Estero Blvd

Iconic Vacant Lot - known as "Stairway to Heaven" on social media. Seize a unique opportunity to own a piece of Fort Myers Beach history with this remarkable lot at 5851 Estero.

The staircase, celebrated in an inspiring Naples News Press article, has become a symbol of hope and renewal. This property offers a blank canvas for your dream beach home. Whether you envision a private coastal retreat, a modern residence, or a boutique vacation rental, the lot’s unique story, prime location, and weekly rental zoning advantages promise to make it an extraordinary investment.
