Welcome to 3836 Lake Street, a thoughtfully renovated gem that blends iconic mid-century modern character with modern-day upgrades. Built in 1960 of solid concrete block, this beautifully updated residence is move-in ready, offering a rare balance of timeless style and lasting quality in one of Fort Myers’ most beloved neighborhoods. Inside, original terrazzo floors have been lovingly restored, bringing vintage charm and durability to every room. Sunlight filters through new doors and newly installed PGT WindGuard impact-rated and metal-framed UV-tinted windows, enhancing the soft, neutral palette and open layout. Every inch of this home reflects care and intention—from the brand-new A/C system (2025) and updated electrical (including a dedicated 120-amp spa circuit), to the new roof (2018), plumbing system (2018, all the way to the street), and driveway (2020). This two-bedroom, one-bathroom home offers 1,068 square feet of well-designed living space, with an open-concept kitchen and living area ideal for entertaining or everyday ease. The finishes and fixtures complement the original design while adding efficiency and comfort for today’s lifestyle. Step outside into your private backyard oasis—lush, serene, and spacious enough for dining, play, or even a future pool. Surrounded by mature trees and free from HOA rules or deed restrictions, you have the freedom to enjoy the property on your own terms. Location is everything, and this home delivers. Nestled in a quiet, tight-knit section of Fort Myers that feels like its own hidden enclave, Palm Lee Park tucked off Historic McGregor is a neighborhood where homes rarely hit the market and long-time residents often relocate within just to stay close. Streets like Jefferson Avenue are lined with signature palms and lead to charming spots like Jefferson Park, just three blocks away from your new home. The park features new playground equipment, a pavilion, and hosts community movie nights with food trucks—perfect for evening strolls and visiting with friends and neighbors. Enjoy walkable access to the Fort Myers Country Club—a local favorite for golf and dining at the Edison restaurant. Tennis courts and the community pool (renovation nearing completion) are nearby, too—all the touches of a community with no HOA. You’re just minutes from the historic Edison & Ford Estates, the shops and restaurants of downtown Fort Myers, and a straight shot down McGregor Boulevard to Sanibel and Fort Myers Beach. Location couldn’t be better! Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer, snowbird, or someone searching for a one-of-a-kind home that doesn’t compromise on style, upgrades, or location— this home is truly a standout. Schedule your private showing and experience the charm for yourself.
