Live the Dream in Cape Coral: Florida Investment Property with Year-Round Appeal

Welcome to 4224 NE 18th Ave, a modern pool home designed for the kind of Florida lifestyle that others only experience for a week or two each year. Built in 2020, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath Florida investment property is the perfect balance of resort-style comfort and intelligent income potential. Whether you’re searching for a full-time home in paradise or a part-time escape that pays for itself, this home offers a rare opportunity to have both.

Vacation Vibes, Every Single Day

From the moment you arrive, this home sets the tone for laid-back luxury. The screened French door entry opens into a spacious open floor plan with vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light. Luxury Cor-Tec flooring flows seamlessly throughout the home, and every detail has been chosen for comfort, energy efficiency, and long-term durability.

The kitchen is bright and welcoming with Samsung stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a large mobile island that adapts to how you live and entertain. The split-bedroom layout offers privacy for family or guests, and the primary suite features a massive walk-in closet, dual sinks, and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower.

But it’s the outdoor living space that takes center stage. A three-panel pocketing slider connects your great room directly to a 40-foot under-truss patio with dual ceiling fans and plenty of room for lounging or dining. Step beyond to the heated saltwater pool, surrounded by a paver deck and protected by a 20/20 mesh super-screen enclosure. Add in mature landscaping, solar lighting, and a Rain Bird irrigation system, and you have your own private Florida resort — with no monthly water bill and no flood insurance required.
