Property Description
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. Famously dubbed the "Stairway to Heaven," this property gained national attention after a resilient white staircase was all that remained of a charming 1950s cottage that washed away by Hurricane Ian. 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. 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.
