Light and bright, spacious and airy, this beautifully maintained residence offers high ceilings, large rooms, and a captivating long lake view. Electric shutters on the lanai, where you will spend many hours entranced by the view, and plantation shutters all round, contribute to relaxed and safe Florida living.
The open floor plan, covering over 2,000 sq.ft., features 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, including an expansive primary suite with tub and walk-in shower, plus a private second suite (the bathroom has double sinks) ideal for visiting family and friends.
Direct access from garage leads to the double height entrance before you step into the unit which has laminate and tile flooring throughout. West of 41 on Vanderbilt Drive and only 30 minutes from RSW Airport, Bay Forest spans 150 acres of preserved mangroves, lakes, and natural Florida landscape along the backwaters of the Gulf, and is close to beaches at Wiggins-Delnor and Barefoot beaches.
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.
Bay Forest is truly a hidden gem.
