Listing description

REIMAGINED VILLA!
You’ve seen it in the current condition, now you can see illustrations of what it could look like updated!
Single-story 2 bedroom, 2 bath villa with an attached garage and Spanish-style tile roof. Lake views from the moment you enter, along with vaulted ceilings and skylights that bring in warm, natural light—perfect for sunny seasonal living.

This property is ideal for snowbirds who want to design a home to their tastes rather than settle for someone else’s updates. The functional layout offers great potential, including an eat-in kitchen, a primary suite with a large walk-in closet, and a guest bedroom with its own private lanai—perfect for visiting friends and family.

A large screened lanai off the living room and primary bedroom overlooks the lake, offering a peaceful space to enjoy morning coffee or evening breezes. Additional features include a separate laundry room with washer and dryer and a NEW A/C installed late 2025, providing comfort and peace of mind during Florida’s warm seasons.

Ideal for snowbirds seeking affordable entry into a lake-view community with the opportunity to personalize and enjoy for years to come. Bay Forest is an active, friendly, gated community with 3 tennis and 3 pickleball courts, bocce, shuffleboard, fitness center and library at the clubhouse.
The star attractions of Bay Forest are the 3 miles of walking trails around the two lakes and property perimeter, and the brand new (2025) boardwalk, extending through mangroves to a tiki hut, a favorite sunset gathering place, with a kayak launching raft.

Property taxes for a new owner

Estimated property taxes about $3,100 a year at the county’s value of this home and its 0.94% tax rate, plus $262 in charges not based on value, no exemptions applied

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, plus its 2025 charges not based on value from the Collier County Tax Collector’s roll. 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.

Hurricane evacuation zone

Zone A Collier

The first zone ordered to evacuate, and the one called in the weakest storms.

Called firstCalled last
FEMA flood zone

Zone X (shaded)

0.2% annual chance — moderate risk

The lot is outside the Special Flood Hazard Area.

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.
