Priced to move and positioned to impress -- this two-bedroom-plus-den, two-bath Carrington floor plan in the sought-after Cascades at Estero offers an exceptional entry point into one of Southwest Florida's premier resort-style communities. Spanning just over 1,600 square feet, the home sits on a premium waterfront home site, and the expanded wrap-around lanai is the undeniable centerpiece -- a rare outdoor living space that frames serene lake views from multiple angles, accessible directly from both the kitchen and the great room, making it a seamless extension of the everyday living areas. Inside, the open great room with soaring vaulted ceilings creates an airy, light-filled atmosphere, complemented by crown molding, tile and wood-look flooring throughout every room -- not a square inch of carpet anywhere -- and an abundance of natural light pouring in from all angles. The guest bath features a full walk-in shower, and the premium LG laundry suite adds a practical luxury touch. This is a home that invites personalization, and at this price point in this community, the value proposition is difficult to match. Residents enjoy an impressive array of resort-style amenities including tennis, pickleball, bocce, a remodeled clubhouse with indoor and outdoor pools, jacuzzi, fitness center, sauna, pottery studio, billiards room, exercise classes, and a vibrant social calendar -- all supported by low HOA fees that include cable, internet, ADT security monitoring, and lawn and landscape care. The community is also golf cart friendly. Ideally situated west of I-75, you're just minutes from major shopping, dining, public golf courses, RSW International Airport, and the white-sand Gulf beaches of Southwest Florida. The home is located in preferred Flood Zone X, meaning no flood insurance is required. If you've been waiting for the right opportunity in the Cascades, this is it.
