Listing description
RARE opportunity to own the lowest-priced direct bayfront property currently available on Naples Bay and create the waterfront estate you’ve always envisioned. Perfectly positioned along one of the widest stretches of the bay with coveted western exposure, this exceptional property captures breathtaking panoramic water views, spectacular sunsets, and front-row views of Naples’ iconic Fourth of July fireworks and beloved Christmas Boat Parade. Unlike many direct bayfront properties, this homesite offers a more protected setting away from heavy boat traffic and excessive wake, creating a peaceful waterfront environment while providing added protection for your vessel. From your own backyard, watch multi-million-dollar yachts cruise along Naples Bay and into Naples Harbor against an ever-changing backdrop of sparkling water and unforgettable sunsets. Offered at essentially lot value, the property also includes a spacious 4-bedroom, 4-bath residence, providing tremendous flexibility. Enjoy the home as-is, renovate and make it your own, lease it for investment income, or utilize the residence while designing and planning a custom waterfront masterpiece. Direct bayfront opportunities combining western exposure, expansive wide-water views, protected boating conditions, and this level of value are increasingly difficult to find. Whether your vision is to renovate, hold as an investment, or build an extraordinary new estate, this is a rare opportunity to secure an exceptional piece of Naples waterfront. Bring your architect. Bring your builder. Bring your vision. One or more photos have been virtually staged, AI-generated, or rendered.

Property taxes for a new owner
That is about the same as the seller’s bill on the county’s 2026 roll.
If you make this home your primary residence, a homestead exemption would lower this figure. If you have also had a Florida homestead in any of the last three years, you may be able to carry up to $500,000 of its capped-value savings to this home, which Florida calls “portability.” Both are applied for with the Property Appraiser by March 1.
How a new owner’s property taxes are set is explained in the Costs & Taxes chapter of the 2027 Naples Buyer’s Guide.
Estimated from the Collier County Property Appraiser’s 2026 value of this home and its tax rate. The county sets a new value each January 1, so a new owner’s first full bill can differ.

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.
Zone A Collier
The first zone ordered to evacuate, and the one called in the weakest storms.
Zone AE
1% annual chance, with a set base flood elevation
The building is inside a Special Flood Hazard Area, where a federally backed mortgage requires flood insurance.
FEMA flood maps and Collier County Emergency Management. A revised Collier County flood map is in preparation and may change these zones.
Flood zones, evacuation, and insurance are explained in the Risk, Resilience & Insurance chapter of the 2027 Naples Buyer’s Guide.
