Welcome to 509 Val Mar Drive! | Tucked just off historic McGregor Blvd and steps from the Caloosahatchee River, this one-of-a-kind Mid-Century Modern gem blends timeless style with smart upgrades and cozy charm. From the moment you arrive, you'll notice the attention to detail—from mature landscaping and smart outdoor lighting to a unique open-air front courtyard featuring custom Bahama shutters, and wood columns. Inside, natural light floods through impact-rated dual-pane windows, illuminating open, airy living spaces with crown molding, board and batten walls, shiplap accents, and custom millwork throughout. The heart of the home is a thoughtfully upgraded kitchen featuring custom cabinetry with under-cabinet lighting, a farmhouse sink, new appliances, and built-in storage. An oversized dining area with charming built-ins offers room to host family gatherings or intimate dinners. The living spaces and bedrooms feel bright and breezy, anchored by terrazzo tile floors and complemented by barn doors and stylish ceiling fans. The primary suite boasts a custom walk-through closet, while additional highlights include dual-zone A/C, two hot water heaters (including tankless), a spacious laundry and storage room, and a garage with two industrial overhead fans—perfect for a workshop. Outside, the fully fenced backyard is your personal retreat, complete with a fire pit area with overhead lighting, a covered grilling patio, and a custom 2023-built shed ideal for a man cave, she-shed, or hobby space. Practical upgrades include a new metal roof (2020), a 13,000-watt whole-house generator (negotiable) with RV-style hookup, a smart irrigation system, and a reverse osmosis water treatment system. You'll also enjoy plenty of parking, a separate oversized storage room in the garage, and no HOA or deed restrictions. Set in peaceful Val-Mar Village—loved for its community vibe, walkability to the river, proximity to shopping, and quick access to Downtown Fort Myers, Cape Coral, and the beaches (Fort Myers, Sanibel, Captiva) —this is more than just a home. It’s a lifestyle. Don’t miss your chance to experience this rare blend of character, comfort, and convenience. Schedule your private tour today.
