Listing description

Fully renovated. Oversized lot. Room for a real pool. And no HOA.
Welcome to 1255 Illinois Drive in Gulf Acres. Reimagined in 2023 and finished for peace of mind, this three-bedroom two-bath home lives bright and easy with impact windows and doors, a 2025 HVAC, a 2023 shingle roof, updated kitchen and baths, modern lighting, fresh landscaping, and irrigation. The split plan opens to a spacious screened lanai and a deep backyard with mature shade and privacy. The lot easily fits a full pool with room to spare, and a one car garage adds extra storage.
Location works hard here. You are minutes to Naples beaches, Fifth Avenue South, shopping and dining, and zoned for Seagate Elementary, Gulfview Middle, and Naples High. With NO HOA and NO community rental restrictions, the property also suits a seasonal owner or investor who wants turnkey convenience. If you value new systems, clean design, and an easy central Naples address, this home is ready. Ask for the lender buydown options. Then come see how well 1255 Illinois lives.
Projected seasonal rents and 65–70 percent occupancy produce attractive gross numbers in central Naples. With the roof, impact openings, and HVAC complete, the next decade of big-ticket items is already handled.

Flood zones & evacuation

Two different things, measured by two different agencies. Evacuation zones are about storm surge and who leaves first. Flood zones are FEMA’s insurance rating, and they vary from home to home.

Hurricane evacuation zone

Zone B Collier

Called in the second wave, for stronger storms.

Called firstCalled last
FEMA flood zone

Mostly Zone X (minimal)

Minimal mapped flood hazard

Most of the lot is outside the Special Flood Hazard Area. Part of the lot lies in another zone.

FEMA flood maps and Collier County Emergency Management. A revised Collier County flood map is in preparation and may change these zones.

A starting point, not a determination. Your lender will require its own flood zone determination before closing, and your insurer will normally require an elevation certificate — a surveyor’s measurement of how high the building actually sits — before quoting. Those documents govern; this does not replace either. Zones can also be amended individually through FEMA.

Flood zones, evacuation, and insurance are explained in the Risk, Resilience & Insurance chapter of the 2027 Naples Buyer’s Guide.
