Where Acreage Meets Elegance on the River - An Iconic Alva Legacy Estate Set just west of the Franklin Locks, this extraordinary riverfront estate is a rare offering where expansive acreage, historic character, & navigable waterfront converge-something seldom found in SWFL. Spanning nearly 26 acres with approximately 850 feet of Caloosahatchee River frontage, this is not simply a property-it is a private sanctuary of scale, presence, and possibility. A long, winding drive introduces the estate with a sense of arrival reserved for truly distinguished properties. Towering oaks, open pastures, & sweeping river views create a landscape that feels both grand & timeless-an increasingly rare combination of usable acreage & deep-water access. At the center of the estate stands a stately 1926 residence encompassing 3,577 square feet under air, rich in architectural heritage & refined character. Soaring 14+ foot ceilings, multiple fireplaces, and thoughtfully preserved details evoke a level of craftsmanship that cannot be replicated. A breezeway-connects the 4-car garage for both elegance and practicality. Complementing the main residence is a separate 3-bedroom, 2-bath caretaker's home offering approximately 1,036 square feet-ideal for extended guests, or private staff quarters. Designed for those who value both lifestyle and land, the estate is fully equipped for equestrian/agricultural pursuits. Multiple fenced pastures, coupled with a striking barn. Inside, 4 stalls & multiple tiled rooms offer flexibility for tack, feed, or specialty use. Designed for comfort, efficiency, resilience, the home is equipped with a whole-house Generac generator, a premium Kinetico whole-house water filtration system, and a 1,000-gallon propane tank-providing reliable, uninterrupted living with elevated utility infrastructure rarely found in properties of this scale. A defining feature of this estate is the 60x60 Quonset structure- a rare opportunity for large-scale storage, a collector's showroom, or workshop. Just steps away is also an RV hookup. Few properties offer such a distinctive and adaptable asset. Along the river's edge, is a 80 foot floating dock extending your living experience onto the water-perfect for boating, fishing, or accommodating larger vessels. With direct access to the Caloosahatchee River & beyond, this property delivers the kind of waterfront lifestyle typically reserved for far denser, far less private locations-yet here, it is paired with nearly 26 acres of open land. In a region where true riverfront acreage estates are increasingly scarce, this offering stands apart. It is the uncommon blend of privacy, scale, navigable waterfront, & historic elegance that defines legacy properties-& makes them nearly impossible to replicate. This is more than a residence. It is a generational estate-where land, water, and timeless design meet in perfect harmony. PID 'S: 14-43-26-00- 00008.00..., 14-43-26-00- 00008.10..., 23-43-26-00- 00002.00...
