The Story
27115 Belle Rio Drive
Along the established West Terry boating corridor of Bonita Springs, this renovated waterfront residence presents a distinctive opportunity to experience Southwest Florida from the water. Direct access to the Imperial River connects the property to Estero Bay and the Gulf, approximately a 20-minute boat ride away. Enhancing this waterfront lifestyle is a unique feature, a private boat ramp directly on the property, offering the convenience of launching from home and complementing the residence’s private fishing pier and seawall. The three-bedroom residence features two full baths and one half bath within an open, flowing floor plan designed to connect indoor and outdoor living. Skylights introduce natural light, while vaulted ceilings enhance the spacious family and living area, complete with a built-in bar. Large bedrooms provide generous accommodations, while a den overlooking the beautifully maintained front yard features a large window that brings natural light into the space. Carpet and tile flooring extend throughout the residence, complemented by modern fixtures and elegant furnishings, which are negotiable. Light and bright, the open kitchen serves as natural gathering point for entertaining and features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a beverage cooler and a large pantry. Windows above the kitchen sink overlook the screened side lanai, creating a visual connection between the kitchen and outdoor living areas. A spacious laundry room adds functionality to the floor plan. Thoughtful renovations are complemented by significant recent improvements, including a new shingle roof installed only a few months ago and a new water heater. Beyond the interiors, the residence unfolds into a private waterfront retreat. A heated pool and spa overlook the canal, surrounded by a brick-paved deck with multiple areas for lounging, dining and entertaining. An outdoor kitchen and grilling area create an inviting setting for alfresco gatherings, while the side screened lanai provides another space to enjoy the waterfront surroundings. The beautifully maintained yard extends toward the seawall, while the private fishing pier offers a setting for fishing and watching dolphins along the waterway. The private on-property boat ramp further distinguishes the residence, allowing boating adventures to begin directly from home. A majestic waterfront mango tree provides welcome shade and privacy, adding a distinctive element of natural beauty. Additional features include an irrigation system, hurricane shutters, an oversized two-car garage and a recently serviced generator capable of powering approximately 75% of the residence. Furniture is negotiable and there are no HOA fees. Near revitalized downtown Bonita Springs, the property offers convenient access to local dining and entertainment, riverside parks, schools and places of worship while retaining the relaxed character of an established boating corridor.
