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. New home vacation rental has potential to do well over $100k in vacation rental income depending on size and #Beds and Baths based on rental performance of newer home builds on similar sized lots on Estero Blvd. Located in a prime spot on the island that is a convenient mile south of Publix and a mile north of CVS and Santini Plaza with restaurants and shopping.
