Estero Place is a gated, single-family, natural-gas community of 102 homes on roughly 53 to 57 acres at the southwest corner of Corkscrew Road and Three Oaks Boulevard in Estero, Lee County, ZIP 33928. It sits just west of I-75 Exit 123, wrapped around two lakes and more than 17 acres of preserve, which is close to a third of the community set aside as green space.
The community was built by Neal Communities between roughly 2014 and 2018 and is now completely built out. There is no remaining buildable land inside the gates and no new construction, so every home that trades is owner turnover. That fixed, finite supply is one of Estero Place's most underrated long-term-value features, and it is exactly why working with a team that watches the Development-level MLS report week to week matters so much here.
Four interior streets organize the community, all carrying the Estero theme: Estero Vista Court, Estero Preserve Run, Estero Palm Way, and Estero Grove Way. Homes back to either a lake or the preserve, which is the core of the community's appeal, privacy and a green or water view rather than a neighbor's roofline. Entry is controlled by an Envera gated system at a single entrance off the Corkscrew Road and Three Oaks Boulevard corner.
Estero Place is not an amenity community and does not pretend to be. There is no clubhouse, no community pool, no fitness center, and no tennis or pickleball. What it offers instead is a nature boardwalk through the Estero River Tributary Preserve, the two lakes, direct access to the Three Oaks Parkway multi-use bike path, and a maintenance-included, lock-and-leave lifestyle at a low single-HOA fee. If your priority is a resort clubhouse, Estero Place is not your match. If your priority is a private, low-fee, well-built home on a preserve or lake lot minutes from Coconut Point and Miromar Outlets, it is one of the best small enclaves in Estero.
The community is professionally managed by SAK and Associates (the association's manager of record; management line 239-645-0830), which handles the gated entry, common areas, preserves, lakes, and the landscape and irrigation contracts that the HOA fee funds. The address is in the Village of Estero, Florida's newest incorporated municipality (incorporated December 31, 2014), which handles permitting, zoning, and code enforcement, while the Lee County Property Appraiser and Lee County Tax Collector handle the tax roll.

Estero Place trades in two clear price bands. The larger-home band ran roughly $625,000 to $814,000 in the 12 months to October 2026 on the bigger 3-bedroom-plus-den plans (about 2,286 to 2,441 square feet). The entry band runs roughly $533,000 to $600,000 on the 2-bedroom-plus-den plans (about 1,870 to 1,924 square feet). Knowing which band a home sits in, and pricing to the right comp set inside that band, is the single most important pricing decision in this community.
Supply is extraordinarily tight. One active listing against a 12-month pace of 12 sales is about 1.0 month of supply. The reason is structural: Estero Place is capped at 102 homes and sold out, so every listing is owner turnover. In a market this thin, a well-priced home can sell quickly, while an over-priced one has almost no comparable inventory to hide behind.
Sellers are holding most of their list price. A median 95.8% sale-to-list ratio says correctly priced Estero Place homes close within striking distance of ask. The cautionary tale in the window is a home listed at $849,999 that closed at $750,000 after 123 days. Pricing to the live comps from the first day protects your equity here.
How the surrounding Estero market frames Estero Place. ZIP-wide, Estero (33928) single-family homes ran a median near $576,500 in mid-2026 (Florida Realtors SunStats, May 2026, backdrop only, not Estero Place figures). Estero Place's $697,000 12-month median sits well above that ZIP median, which reflects its newer Neal build, gated entry and preserve-and-lake lots.

Estero Place is an owner-occupied community, not a rental-investor or short-term-rental play. It is a small, gated, single-family enclave of 102 homes governed by HOA leasing rules and built around a maintenance-included, lock-and-leave lifestyle that draws primary residents, snowbirds, and downsizers who buy to live here, not to run a rental.
Practically, that means three things for a would-be investor. First, the HOA enforces leasing restrictions typical of Neal single-family communities, commonly a minimum lease term and a cap on the number of leases per year, with tenant registration and approval through the association. The exact terms live in the recorded Declaration and Rules, so confirm them in the resale package before any purchase made with rental intent. Second, the carrying cost is real: roughly $4,200 a year in HOA dues plus Lee County property tax (for example, about $6,137 in 2025 property tax on one $750,000 home) compresses net rental margin quickly. Third, the community's culture is ownership, not turnover, so quality long-stay tenants are the realistic play, not weekly or short-term rentals.

Estero Place was built by Neal Communities of Southwest Florida, the family-owned homebuilder founded in 1970 by Pat Neal and his father Paul Neal, and it is the kind of developer pedigree that quietly matters when you are buying a home that will weather Gulf Coast storms for decades. Neal has since built more than 25,000 homes across 90-plus Southwest Florida communities, and Patrick K. Neal chairs the company today.
The origin is well documented. In March 2013, Neal Communities closed on roughly 53 acres in two parcels at the southwest corner of Corkscrew Road and Three Oaks Boulevard for $3.03 million (about $57,075 per acre), buying from OB Florida CRE Holdings LLC. Neal's vice president of building for Lee and Collier counties, Michael Greenberg, called it "a jewel of a location for a gated community in Estero," and the original plan called for roughly 100 single-family homes priced from the high $200,000s, on lots offering lake and preserve views. The governing association, Estero Place Neighborhood Association, Inc., was formed with the Florida Division of Corporations on August 2, 2013 (Document N13000006964).
Sales and marketing began in early 2014, the grand opening followed around fall 2014, and the community built out on the 102-home master plan between roughly 2014 and 2018. Two independent, authoritative-leaning sources fix the count at 102: the Estero Council of Community Leaders' October 2015 Estero Development Report, which describes "a 102 single family residential gated community" with "over 17 acres of preserves and a nature boardwalk," and the 2018 Silverleaf CDD bond official statement, which lists Neal's Estero Place row as "102 units, 2014 to 2018." Marketing copy rounded it to "100 homes," so treat 102 as the built count and 100 as the round number.
There is one timing detail worth understanding for the page's accuracy: Estero Place was permitted and approved by Lee County before the Village of Estero incorporated on December 31, 2014, because many Estero projects were processed by the County prior to incorporation. Today the community lies fully within the Village of Estero, and only later modifications would go before the Village.
Neal has since exited Estero Place entirely. The builder no longer markets new construction here, and its Estero location page has moved on to newer projects. What that means for a buyer or seller today is simple: Estero Place is a mature, fully built, sold-out community, and every transaction is a resale. The homes have a track record, the landscape is grown in, the association has more than a decade of filings on record, and the value story is turnover-driven scarcity rather than builder inventory.

Estero Place homes are single-story Neal Communities plans ranging from roughly 1,870 to 2,453 square feet, with 2 to 3 bedrooms plus a den, 2 to 3 bathrooms, and 2 to 3 car garages, all built in concrete block with a Mediterranean and Country French exterior character. Six model plans were offered, and the resale market today reflects that exact mix.
Model | Beds | Baths | Approx. Sq Ft (A/C) | Garage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Eventide | 2 BR + Den | 2 BA | 1,870 | 2-car |
Endless Summer | 3 BR + Den | 2 BA | 2,181 | 2-car |
Bright Meadow | 3 BR + Den | 2 BA | 2,288 | 3-car |
Windsong | 3 BR + Den | 2 BA | 2,367 | 2-car |
Sea Star | 3 BR + Den | 2 BA | 2,379 | 3-car |
Sea Glass | 3 BR | 2.5 BA | 2,453 | 2-car |
The smaller Eventide plan anchors the entry price band and shows up in the MLS as the 1,870-square-foot, 2-bedroom-plus-den layout that has been closing in the mid-$500,000s to around $600,000. The larger Bright Meadow, Windsong, Sea Star, and Sea Glass plans anchor the upper band, with the 3-car-garage plans (Bright Meadow, Sea Star) especially sought after by buyers who want workshop or golf-cart space. Recent sales of the larger homes have clustered between about 2,286 and 2,441 square feet, at roughly $625,000 to $814,000 in the 12 months to October 2026.
Neal's construction package for this line is worth knowing because it drives both livability and insurance cost: reinforced concrete-block walls, maintenance-free soffits and fascia, concrete roof tile, a paver entry, walk and driveway, a professionally designed landscape package with automatic irrigation, and homes pre-wired for cable and telephone. Because the homes were built from about 2014 to 2018, they were constructed under the modern Florida Building Code, which is one of the strongest wind-resistant residential codes in the country (more on that in the hurricane section). Neal builds to a regional standard that includes impact-resistant windows and doors on its Fort Myers and Naples product, though an Estero-Place-specific spec sheet was not located, so confirm impact-glass versus shutters on any individual home.

The Lee County Property Appraiser roll is the record that settles the counts. Estero Place is one recorded plat, Lee County Official Records Instrument 2014000133261, in Section 34, Township 46 South, Range 25 East. The roll carries 121 parcels: 102 single-family homes and 19 common tracts (the private road tracts and the two lake tracts the association owns).
Street | Homes on the roll |
|---|---|
Estero Palm Way | 40 |
Estero Vista Court | 28 |
Estero Preserve Run | 23 |

Year built (county roll) | Homes |
|---|---|
2014 | 5 |
2015 | 36 |
2016 | 23 |
2017 | 38 |
Heated area on the roll runs from 1,870 to 2,548 square feet, with a median of 2,286. The most common recorded sizes are 1,924 square feet (16 homes), 2,337 (15), 2,236 (14), 2,286 (13), 1,870 (11) and 2,461 (10). The roll counts 74 three-bedroom, 25 two-bedroom and 3 four-bedroom homes; the MLS shows how the dens are marketed, with most Estero Place sales listed as two or three bedrooms plus a den. A few homes measure above the 2,453-square-foot top of Neal's 2014 launch range, which is the county's heated-area measurement rather than a brochure figure.
The first county permits we found for the community date to 2014, issued by unincorporated Lee County before the Village of Estero incorporated: a screen-enclosure permit on Estero Palm Way on August 1, 2014 and a single-family home permit on Estero Palm Way on October 1, 2014, both to Neal Communities of SW FL LLC. Florida Weekly reported the model grand opening for November 8 and 9, 2014, with the Endless Summer 3 (2,181 square feet) and Windsong (2,367 square feet) models, and Neal's plan for 102 homes.

Estero Place carries a single master HOA fee of roughly $1,050 per quarter (about $4,200 per year), and NO CDD. There is no club fee, no recreation-lease fee, no condo fee, and no special assessment layered on top, which is confirmed across multiple current MLS listing records. This clean, one-fee, no-CDD structure is one of the community's genuine cost-of-ownership advantages.
The current active listing shows the fee at $1,000 per quarter ($4,000 per year), while recent 2026 sales cluster at $1,050 to $1,060 per quarter ($4,200 to $4,240 per year). Publish this as approximately $1,000 to $1,060 per quarter, or the representative roughly $1,050 per quarter, and confirm the current figure in the estoppel at offer.
What the Estero Place HOA fee covers:
Because there is no clubhouse, pool, or fitness center to staff and fund, the fee stays low relative to amenity-heavy communities, and nearly every dollar goes to landscape, irrigation, gate, and preserve upkeep plus reserves. That is the trade Estero Place makes: no resort amenities, but a genuinely low fee and a maintenance-included, lock-and-leave home.
A Community Development District (CDD) is a special-purpose government body that finances a community's initial infrastructure with bonds and repays them through an annual assessment that shows up as a non-ad-valorem line on your Lee County property tax bill, often several hundred to well over a thousand dollars a year, for decades. Estero Place has no CDD. Its tax district type is a Village of Estero municipal-service designation, not a CDD, and there is no CDD bond debt attached to these homes. When you compare Estero Place to many newer Corkscrew-corridor communities that do carry a CDD, the absence of that annual assessment is a real, recurring savings a buyer should factor into total cost of ownership.
Both are one-time, both should be confirmed in the resale package and estoppel before offer, and both are typically negotiated in the contract as to who pays.
Estero Place homes carry a combined Lee County, School Board, independent-district, and Village of Estero municipal millage. The Village's municipal rate for FY2025 to 2026 is just 0.73 mills (73 cents per $1,000 of taxable value), among the lowest municipal rates in Florida. Combined all-in effective property tax for Estero properties typically lands near 1.2% to 1.3% of taxable value depending on exemptions, with no CDD line on the bill. As a real example, the 2025 tax on one $750,000 Estero Place home was about $6,137.
Estero Place operates under a recorded Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions plus Bylaws and Rules administered by the Estero Place Neighborhood Association and SAK and Associates. The exact numeric limits (minimum lease term, leases per year, pet counts) live in those recorded documents, so the framework below is accurate and the specific numbers should be confirmed in the resale package before you rely on them.
Working with a team that has read Estero-community governing documents dozens of times, and who will pull the recorded Declaration and Rules for you before you write an offer, is part of what protects you here. Buyers, call Marc at (239) 287-5873. Sellers preparing your resale disclosure package, call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
Estero Place's amenities are deliberately minimal and nature-forward: a gated entry, two lakes, more than 17 acres of preserve, a nature boardwalk through the Estero River Tributary Preserve, and direct access to the Three Oaks Parkway bike path. It is a natural-gas community, which is unusual in Southwest Florida. To be clear and honest, because buyers ask this more than anything else: there is no community pool, no clubhouse, no fitness center, and no tennis or pickleball.
We are emphatic about that last point because unreliable third-party "HOA info" pages publish AI-generated boilerplate claiming Estero Place has a clubhouse, pool, and tennis courts. It does not. Neal's own community features list enumerates the gate, the natural gas, the preserve boardwalk, and the bike-path access, and lists no pool or clubhouse, and the MLS "Amenities" field for the community reads "None." Any pool you see in an Estero Place listing photo is a private, per-home feature, not a shared community amenity.
Estero Place is marketed by Neal as "an Envera gated, natural gas community," and homes were built with natural gas for the water heater, range, and dryer hookups. In a region where most communities are all-electric, natural gas is a genuine, quiet advantage: gas cooking, faster and cheaper water heating, and, importantly for hurricane country, the practical ability to run a whole-house standby generator on natural gas without hauling propane. For many buyers this single feature separates Estero Place from comparable Estero enclaves.
Nearly a third of the 53-to-57-acre community is preserve and lake, which is why homes here sell on their preserve or lake views. The nature boardwalk runs through the Estero River Tributary Preserve, and the community connects directly to the Three Oaks Parkway multi-use path (Neal markets access to a roughly 30-mile regional path network along Three Oaks, a builder figure for the regional network rather than a trail length inside the gates). For a buyer who wants privacy, green views, and a walk-or-bike lifestyle without a mandatory club membership, that setting is the whole point of Estero Place.

Estero Place has no golf course, club or marina inside the gates, by design. In 2014 Pat Neal told The News-Press that his buyers wanted gated communities "without all the high monthly fees," so he left out clubhouses and fitness centers. What owners use instead is close by:
Estero Place is inland Estero, west of I-75 near Corkscrew Road and Three Oaks Boulevard, and several miles from the Gulf, which is the single most important fact for its storm story. When Hurricane Ian made landfall in Lee County on September 28, 2022 as a Category 4 with roughly 150 mph winds, its catastrophic storm surge stayed at the coast and did not reach inland Estero Place.
Ian's peak surge of 10 to 15 feet hit the coast, Fort Myers Beach, Estero Island (the barrier island), and Sanibel, with field studies documenting a rapid drop in surge impact within the first few hundred meters of the shoreline. That coastal surge damage does not describe inland Estero Place, which sits well east of U.S. 41 and outside the coastal A, AE, V, and VE surge zones. What Estero did feel was wind, an Extreme Wind Warning covered the area and gusts topped 100 mph in parts of Southwest Florida, attenuating inland, so the honest inland profile is a wind hazard, not a surge or structural-flooding hazard.
Estero Place homes were built from about 2014 to 2018, under the modern Florida Building Code adopted statewide in 2002 after Hurricane Andrew, one of the strongest wind-resistant residential codes in the country. All of Lee County sits in the Wind-Borne Debris Region (design wind speeds above 140 mph), which requires opening protection (impact-rated windows and doors or shutters), reinforced concrete-block walls, engineered roof-to-wall connections, ring-shank-nailed roof sheathing, and a secondary water barrier.
The performance data is striking. The Insurance Institute for Business and Home Safety (IBHS) studied Southwest Florida after Ian and found that among 455 single-family homes built to the modern Florida Building Code, none had wind-caused structural damage, while pre-2002 homes had structural-damage rates roughly twice as high. Estero Place's entire inventory falls on the modern-code side of that line, which is one of the strongest and most under-marketed points a buyer or seller has here. Neal also builds its regional product with impact-resistant windows and doors as standard (a PGT partnership), so confirm the opening protection on any specific home.
Buyers, we pull the permit and roof history on any Estero Place address before you offer. Call Marc at (239) 287-5873. Sellers, a documented roof age and wind-mitigation credits are real dollars at closing. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
Estero Place is mapped by FEMA into a mix of Zone X (minimal flood risk) across most of the community and a Zone AH shallow-ponding pocket on the current effective Lee County flood map (FIRM panel 12071C0591H, effective November 17, 2022). Because the zone varies lot to lot, the single most important thing a buyer can do is check the specific parcel. Do not assume the whole community is one zone.
Before you write an offer, we pull the current FIRM zone, the parcel's elevation data, and flood-insurance estimates so you have real numbers in hand, not assumptions. On the listing side, a documented Zone X designation with a modest premium estimate is a number we put in front of every prospective buyer. Sellers, call Jesse at (239) 898-6072. Buyers, call Marc at (239) 287-5873.
Flood zone and evacuation zone are different maps. Lee County's emergency management layer places Estero Palm Way in Evacuation Zone C (storm surge zone 3), behind coastal Zones A and B in the order the county calls storm-surge evacuations. A Zone C home is inland enough that surge is a lower-order threat, which is consistent with Ian's surge staying at the coast, but residents still follow the county's evacuation orders for their zone. For comparison, the county places Fountain Lakes, west of US-41, in Zone A.
Estero Place is in the School District of Lee County, which assigns schools by proximity zones and parent ranking rather than fixed attendance boundaries. In the district's 2026 to 2027 plan, the Estero-area zones list Pinewoods and Three Oaks elementary, Three Oaks Middle, and Estero High among the choices; families confirm the zone for their exact address with the district.
Level | Zone in the district plan | Schools listed in that zone | Straight-line miles from Estero Palm Way |
|---|---|---|---|
Elementary | Proximity Zone Q | Bonita Springs, Pinewoods, San Carlos Park, Spring Creek, Three Oaks | Pinewoods 2.1 |
Middle | Proximity Zone GG | Bonita Springs Middle, Three Oaks Middle | Three Oaks Middle 3.0 |
High | South Zone, sub-zones 2 and 3 | Sub-zone 2: Bonita Springs, Cypress Lake, Dunbar, Estero, Fort Myers, South Fort Myers. Sub-zone 3: Bonita Springs, Estero, South Fort Myers | Estero High 0.7 |
Source: School District of Lee County, Student Enrollment Plan 2026 to 2027. Distances are straight-line miles from OpenStreetMap coordinates, not drive distances.
Parents rank the schools in the proximity zone linked to their address, and a lottery runs when applications exceed seats, with preferences for programs, siblings and distance. Families who need bus service are guaranteed a seat at a school with capacity in their zone, but students who live within two miles of a school do not get district transportation to it. Registration for the next school year opens the first Monday in November, and cross-zone and hardship waiver requests are due by July 31.
The district reports an overall "B" grade for 2025 to 2026, with 24 schools rated "A" and 29 rated "B". Private and charter options nearby include Three Oaks Academy (private, 21101 Design Parc Lane, Estero) and Athenian Academy Charter. Florida Gulf Coast University is about 2.6 miles from Estero Place in a straight line.
Estero Place has strong healthcare access for a suburban Estero location, anchored by Lee Health Coconut Point in Estero, which houses a 24/7 emergency department plus primary care, specialists, outpatient surgery, imaging, and pharmacy. For a full acute-care hospital and trauma services, Gulf Coast Medical Center in Fort Myers is the nearest major hospital and a Level II Trauma Center.
A notable regional addition: the Southwest Florida Proton Center (a Lee Health and Advocate Radiation Oncology joint venture) opened in December 2025 at Estero Parkway and Three Oaks Parkway, the first proton-therapy center on Florida's west coast, and it is now treating patients minutes from Estero Place.
Estero Place sits at the southwest corner of Corkscrew Road and Three Oaks Boulevard, immediately west of I-75 Exit 123, which is the retail-and-highway spine of Estero, so nearly everything a resident needs is a few minutes down the same corridor. Miromar Outlets is essentially straight down Corkscrew Road, and Coconut Point, FGCU, and RSW are all reached from that same interchange.
All drive times are approximate and vary with traffic and season:
Everyday needs are close too: multiple Publix stores serve Estero (including Publix at Corkscrew Village at 21301 S. Tamiami Trail), and Koreshan State Park on the Estero River offers kayaking, hiking, and pioneer history nearby. Note that no Whole Foods is confirmed in Estero, so Publix is the verified everyday grocery.
Drive times change with season and traffic, so here are measured straight-line distances from the center of Estero Place (OpenStreetMap coordinates, October 2026). Driving distances are longer.

The most relevant new development to Estero Place is happening right at its own intersection, not miles east on Corkscrew Road. Directly around the Corkscrew Road and Three Oaks Boulevard node, buyers will see the new Estero Crossing / Corsa apartments-plus-retail across the intersection, the Goodwill, Wawa, and Starbucks in the Lowe's Plaza retail node, and, importantly, a Village land purchase that keeps a key corner parcel as drainage and open space rather than commercial.
A common misunderstanding is worth clearing up: the active Corkscrew Road widening (4 to 6 lanes) is east of I-75 (Ben Hill Griffin Parkway to Alico Road, targeted for completion around the end of 2026), not the segment that fronts Estero Place. The widening of Corkscrew Road west of I-75 to Three Oaks Parkway, the community frontage, is a recognized future need but is currently planned and unfunded, described in Village long-range planning as beyond 2035. FDOT is separately studying an I-75 widening whose northern terminus is the Corkscrew Road interchange.
Buyers hear about the Corkscrew corridor boom (Verdana Village, RiverCreek, Kingston, Corkscrew Grove) and the Coconut Point / U.S. 41 wave (Woodfield, Downtown Estero, Lumio), but almost all of that is east of I-75 or west toward U.S. 41, adding rooftops and driving the road projects rather than sitting at Estero Place's gate. Closer to home, the Village is investing in the roughly 100-acre Estero Sports Park (with a 40,000-square-foot High 5 Entertainment center whose opening the Village and Engage Estero report as between November 2026 and early 2027), reopened the South County Regional Library after a $10.47 million renovation, and is advancing the BERT (Bonita Estero Rails to Trails) shared-use trail. Estero closed 2025 with about $422 million in building permits, its second-highest total since incorporating in 2014, which speaks to the demand pressure supporting values in tight, sold-out pockets like Estero Place.
Engage Estero's development summary (updated July 2026) lists these projects on the Corkscrew Road, Three Oaks Parkway and Estero Parkway corridors near Estero Place:
Project | Where | Scope | Status as reported |

Plaza Del Sol | northeast corner of Three Oaks Parkway and Corkscrew Road | 7.7-acre tract | amendment for self-storage and possibly a hotel; plans not yet filed |
Aldi | 11906 Newbridge Drive, south of Corkscrew Road east of Stoneybrook Golf Drive | about 20,642 to 22,000 square feet | planning and approval |
Corkscrew Pines Self Storage | south side of Corkscrew Road east of Stoneybrook Golf Drive | three buildings, 134,000 square feet | infrastructure started in 2025 |
Curadel Pharma | 9600 Corkscrew Road | 43,000-square-foot medical office on about 3.8 acres | under Planning, Zoning and Design Board review |

Southwest Florida Proton Center | Estero Parkway and Three Oaks Parkway | 35,000-square-foot, $80 million treatment center | opened December 2025 |
At the Village level, the Estero Council set a tentative FY 2026 to 2027 millage of 0.7300 mills on September 9, 2026, and approved the $82 million Bonita Estero Rail Trail purchase agreement on March 4, 2026.
Estero Place suits buyers who want a small gated enclave of newer single-family homes on preserve and lake lots, while Fountain Lakes suits buyers who want a gated golf community with a bundled par-3 course, a full amenity center and a lower master fee. The table below sets the two side by side.
Decision point | Estero Place | Fountain Lakes |
|---|---|---|
Home types and count | 102 single-family homes | 900 residential lots: single-family homes, attached villas and low-rise condos |
Era built and builder | Neal Communities, about 2014 to 2018 | Kraus-Anderson, starting in 1987; most homes built between the late 1980s and the early 2000s |
Median sold price | $697,000, 12 months to October 21, 2026 (12 MLS closings) | $335,000, 12 months to October 21, 2026 (39 MLS closings) |
Master HOA fee | Roughly $1,050 per quarter (about $4,200 per year), one master HOA | $370 per quarter ($1,480 per year, 2026), plus a one-time $2,500 capital contribution at closing and sub-association dues |
Golf and amenities | No clubhouse, community pool, fitness center, tennis or pickleball; nature boardwalk and Three Oaks bike path access | Private 9-hole par-3 course bundled into the master fee, two pools, fitness center, tennis, pickleball and bocce |
CDD | No CDD | No CDD |
Gated | Yes, a single gated entry | Yes, barcode gate system with a main entrance and a residents-only back gate |
Flood zone | A mix of Zone X and a Zone AH pocket, lot-specific (FIRM panel 12071C0591H, effective November 17, 2022) | A mix of Zone AE and Zone X, parcel-specific (FIRM panel 12071C0587G, effective November 17, 2022) |
Evacuation zone | Lee County Zone C at Estero Palm Way | Lee County Zone A at the points we checked |
Location | Southwest corner of Corkscrew Road and Three Oaks Boulevard, just west of I-75 Exit 123 | Directly across US-41 from Coconut Point |
Age restriction | All-ages | Not age-restricted |
Who should choose which: Choose Estero Place if you want a newer single-family home built about 2014 to 2018, a small 102-home gated enclave with preserve and lake lots, and a single master HOA fee with no CDD. It is amenity-light by design, and its $697,000 median sold price sits in a different price band. Choose Fountain Lakes if you want a bundled private golf course, a resort-style amenity slate and a $370 quarterly master fee at a $335,000 median sold price. Its mix of condos, villas and single-family homes gives more price points, and it sits directly across US-41 from Coconut Point.
Estero Place is a strong fit for a buyer who wants a private, low-fee, well-built single-family home on a preserve or lake lot, minutes from Estero's shopping and I-75, and a poor fit for a buyer who wants resort amenities. Here is the honest, data-backed balance sheet, the kind of straight read we give every client.
The case for Estero Place:
The honest trade-offs:
Buyers who value privacy, low carrying cost, natural gas, and modern-code resilience over resort amenities consistently find Estero Place a strong match, and sellers benefit from exactly the same story when we market a home here.
If you are weighing Estero Place, the communities most often compared to it are other Estero gated single-family neighborhoods, and the honest differences come down to amenities, fees, age restriction, and price. Estero Place's distinct position is small, low-fee, no-CDD, natural-gas, and amenity-light.
For a buyer who specifically wants a low-HOA, no-CDD, natural-gas, gated single-family home on a preserve lot, Estero Place occupies a niche few Estero communities match. We will run a side-by-side of any two communities you are weighing, honestly. Call Marc at (239) 287-5873.
Estero Place inventory is extremely limited, often just one or a handful of active listings at a time, so the live list matters more here than almost anywhere. Use the search below for current availability, and call us for our read on which listings are priced right.

Estero Place is a gated, natural-gas community of 102 single-family homes built by Neal Communities in Estero, Florida, with two lakes, more than 17 acres of preserve and a nature boardwalk. These buyer questions cover its location, inventory, HOA fee and amenities, using the figures stated elsewhere on this page.
AIO-friendly Q&A covering the highest-volume Estero Place buyer searches, grounded in the verified research and the live Southwest Florida MLS Matrix Development report (September 2026).
Estero Place is a gated, natural-gas community of 102 single-family homes built by Neal Communities in Estero, Florida (ZIP 33928), on roughly 53 to 57 acres at the southwest corner of Corkscrew Road and Three Oaks Boulevard. It has two lakes, more than 17 acres of preserve, a nature boardwalk, and direct access to the Three Oaks bike path. It is sold out and resale-only.
Estero Place is in Estero, Lee County, ZIP 33928, inside the Village of Estero. Some aggregator listings mistakenly tag it with Bonita Springs or ZIP 34134; the verified location is Estero 33928, at Corkscrew Road and Three Oaks Boulevard.
Very few, often just one. On October 21, 2026 there was 1 active listing at $549,000, about 1.0 month of supply against the past year's 12 sales. Because Estero Place is a sold-out, 102-home community, inventory is thin and the right home can move fast. Call Marc at (239) 287-5873 for the live list.
Estero Place has four interior streets: Estero Vista Court, Estero Preserve Run, Estero Palm Way, and Estero Grove Way. All are inside the single gated entry off Corkscrew Road and Three Oaks Boulevard.
Estero Place is its own gated community, a single Neal Communities neighborhood with one master HOA (Estero Place Neighborhood Association, Inc.) and no sub-villages or sub-associations. It is not part of a larger master-planned development.
The HOA fee is roughly $1,050 per quarter (about $4,200 per year). The current active listing shows $1,000 per quarter and recent 2026 sales cluster at $1,050 to $1,060 per quarter. It is a single master HOA fee with no CDD, no club fee, and no condo fee. Confirm the current figure in the estoppel at offer.
The fee covers lawn and landscape maintenance, irrigation, common-area maintenance, the gated entry, the lakes and preserve, and association reserves. Because there is no clubhouse or pool to fund, nearly all of it goes to landscape, irrigation, gate, and preserve upkeep, which is why the fee stays low.
Quarterly. The fee runs roughly $1,000 to $1,060 per quarter, which works out to about $4,000 to $4,240 per year.
Yes. Lawn and landscape maintenance and irrigation are included in the quarterly HOA fee, which supports Estero Place's low-maintenance, lock-and-leave positioning.
Yes, relatively. At about $4,200 a year for a gated single-family community, with lawn and irrigation included and no CDD, Estero Place's fee is low compared with amenity-heavy or CDD-burdened Estero communities. The trade is that there are no community amenities to enjoy for that fee.
No. Estero Place has no Community Development District, so there is no CDD bond assessment on the Lee County tax bill. Its tax district type is a Village of Estero municipal-service designation, not a CDD, which is a genuine recurring cost advantage versus many newer Corkscrew-corridor communities.
Estero Place is governed by a recorded Declaration, Bylaws, and Rules administered by the association and SAK and Associates. Exterior changes require Architectural Review Committee approval, pets are permitted with common-area leashing, and leasing is restricted (commonly a minimum lease term and a leases-per-year cap). Confirm exact terms in the recorded documents before relying on them.
Yes, pets are permitted. Owners are expected to leash pets in common areas and clean up after them. Any breed or count limits are set by the recorded Rules, so confirm the specifics with SAK and Associates if you have a particular breed in mind.
Yes, but under HOA leasing restrictions. The community operates with rules typical of Neal single-family neighborhoods, commonly a minimum lease term and a cap on leases per year, with tenant registration and approval. Estero Place is an owner-occupied community, not a short-term-rental market. Verify the exact terms in the recorded Declaration before buying with rental intent.
SAK and Associates is the association's manager of record (management line 239-645-0830). Estoppel and document requests, and current fee confirmation, route through SAK and Associates.
Neal Communities built Estero Place, a family-owned Southwest Florida builder founded in 1970. Neal bought the land in March 2013, opened around fall 2014, and built the community out between roughly 2014 and 2018.
It is sold out and resale-only. Neal Communities completed the 102-home build-out by about 2018 and no longer sells new construction here. Every home that trades today is a resale.
Estero Place has 102 single-family homes on roughly 53 to 57 acres, with more than 17 acres (close to a third of the community) set aside as preserve and lakes. Marketing copy sometimes rounds the count to 100; the built count is 102.
Neal originally marketed homes from the high $200,000s when the community launched in 2013 to 2014. Those figures are historical and long outdated; today's resale market runs from the mid-$500,000s to the low $800,000s.
Neal offered six single-story plans: Eventide, Endless Summer, Bright Meadow, Windsong, Sea Star, and Sea Glass, ranging from about 1,870 to 2,453 square feet, with 2 to 3 bedrooms plus a den and 2 to 3 car garages. All are single-story ranch layouts.
All six Neal plans are single-story ranch designs. There are no two-story models in Estero Place.
The Bright Meadow (2,288 sq ft) and Sea Star (2,379 sq ft) plans were offered with 3-car garages. The Eventide, Endless Summer, Windsong, and Sea Glass plans have 2-car garages.
Living area runs from about 1,870 to 2,453 square feet. Recent sales ranged from 1,870 square feet on the entry Eventide plan to about 2,441 square feet on the larger plans, at a median of about $315 per square foot.
Homes have 2 to 3 bedrooms (most with a den) and 2 to 3 bathrooms. The entry Eventide is a 2-bedroom-plus-den, 2-bath; the largest Sea Glass is a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath.
Some do, as a per-home private feature. There is no community pool, so any pool you see in a listing is a private screened pool on that specific lot. Filter for a pool in the active search, or ask us which resale homes have one.
Yes, homes are reinforced concrete-block construction built to the modern Florida Building Code (2014 to 2018), with concrete roof tile and a secondary water barrier. Neal builds its regional product with impact-resistant windows and doors as standard, but confirm impact glass versus shutters on any specific home.
Estero Place's amenities are a gated entry, two lakes, more than 17 acres of preserve, a nature boardwalk, and direct access to the Three Oaks bike path, plus the natural-gas infrastructure. It is a low-amenity, nature-forward enclave.
No. Estero Place has no community pool, no clubhouse, no fitness center, and no tennis or pickleball. Unreliable third-party pages sometimes claim otherwise; they are wrong. Neal's own features list and the MLS both confirm the community has no shared amenity building. Any pool is a private, per-home feature.
Yes. Estero Place has two lakes, more than 17 acres of preserve, and a nature boardwalk through the Estero River Tributary Preserve. Close to a third of the community is green space, and most homes back to a lake or preserve view.
Yes. The community has direct access to the Three Oaks Parkway multi-use bike path, which connects into the regional Three Oaks path network.
Yes, Estero Place is gated at a single controlled entry using an Envera system (a video-verified virtual gate provider) off the Corkscrew Road and Three Oaks Boulevard corner.
Estero Place is a gated community with controlled entry in the Village of Estero, an incorporated municipality with its own low-crime suburban profile. As with any purchase, verify current local crime data for the specific area, but the gated entry and small, owner-occupied footprint are part of the community's appeal.
Yes. Estero Place is a natural-gas community, which is unusual in Southwest Florida. Homes were built with natural gas for the water heater, range, and dryer hookups, and gas supports a whole-house standby generator, a genuine hurricane-country advantage.
Xfinity (Comcast) cable internet is broadly available in Estero 33928, and CenturyLink/Lumen is the alternative, with fiber in parts of Estero. Homes were pre-wired for cable and telephone. Fiber to a specific lot is address-dependent, so check availability by address.
Waste Pro is Lee County's contracted residential hauler serving the Village of Estero, on a single-day, once-a-week collection model for trash, recycling, and yard waste. Residents look up their assigned day at leegov.com/solidwaste.
Yes, in principle, because Estero Place is a natural-gas community, which supports a whole-house standby generator without hauling propane. Any exterior generator installation still requires HOA Architectural Review Committee approval and a Village of Estero permit.
Property tax combines Lee County, School Board, independent-district, and Village of Estero (0.73 mills) millage, typically landing near 1.2% to 1.3% of taxable value with no CDD line. As a real example, the 2025 tax on one $750,000 Estero Place home was about $6,137.
Estero Place spans a mix of FEMA Zone X (minimal risk) across most of the community and a Zone AH shallow-ponding pocket, on the current effective Lee County FIRM panel 12071C0591H (effective November 17, 2022). Because zone assignment varies lot to lot, check the specific parcel on msc.fema.gov or the Village of Estero flood portal.
It depends on the lot. On Zone X lots, flood insurance is not federally required with a mortgage (optional but recommended). On Zone AH lots, flood insurance is federally required with a federally backed mortgage. Everyone can buy coverage through the NFIP, and the Village of Estero's CRS Class 6 rating provides a 20% discount on SFHA premiums.
Estero Place is inland, west of the coastal surge zones, so Ian's catastrophic storm surge did not reach the community. Estero felt wind, not surge. Because the homes were built 2014 to 2018 to the modern Florida Building Code (the vintage that performed best in Ian per the IBHS study), the inland wind-not-surge profile is one of the community's quiet strengths. Verify each home's individual repair history at offer.
Yes. Built from about 2014 to 2018, Estero Place homes fall under the modern Florida Building Code, with concrete-block walls, engineered roof-to-wall connections, and opening protection required in Lee County's Wind-Borne Debris Region. In the IBHS Ian study, none of 455 modern-code single-family homes had wind-caused structural damage.
Lee County assigns by proximity zone and parent ranking: the district's 2026 to 2027 plan lists Pinewoods and Three Oaks elementary in Zone Q, Three Oaks Middle in Zone GG and Estero High in the South Zone, and no single school is guaranteed.

Estero Place is at the southwest corner of Corkscrew Road and Three Oaks Boulevard, immediately west of I-75 Exit 123 in Estero, ZIP 33928. I-75 is essentially at the community's doorstep via the Corkscrew Road interchange.
Miromar Outlets is about 5 minutes (same Corkscrew Road), Coconut Point about 5 to 10 minutes, and the Gulf beaches roughly 20 to 32 minutes depending on which beach. RSW airport is about 14 miles, roughly 19 to 20 minutes north on I-75.
For buyers who want a private, low-fee, well-built home on a preserve or lake lot, minutes from shopping and I-75, with natural gas and no CDD, Estero Place is an excellent fit. For buyers who want a resort clubhouse and community pool, it is not, because it has none. It suits primary residents, snowbirds, and downsizers who value privacy and low carrying cost.
Estero Place is all ages and not age-restricted. Any buyer can purchase here. The draw is single-family homes, single-story layouts, a maintenance-included lifestyle, and proximity to Pinewoods Elementary and Estero High.
No. Estero Place is open to all ages and is not a 55-plus community. (Cascades at Estero, by contrast, is the local 55-plus option.)
No. Estero Place is not a golf community and has no golf course. It is a small, gated, nature-oriented single-family enclave with no golf, no clubhouse, and no pool.
In the 12 months to October 2026, Estero Place homes sold from $533,000 to $814,000, at a median of $697,000, in two clear bands: an entry band around $533,000 to $600,000 on the smaller plans, and a larger-home band around $625,000 to $814,000 on the bigger plans. Prices run about $315 per square foot.
Estero Place is resale-only, so new versus resale is not a choice here. On value, the community trades at a premium to the broad Estero ZIP median because of its newer Neal build, gated entry, natural gas, low no-CDD fee, and preserve-and-lake lots. Whether a specific home is well-priced depends on its band and condition, which we assess against the live comps. Call Marc at (239) 287-5873.
Estero Place is smaller, lower-fee, no-CDD, natural-gas, and amenity-light. Bella Terra and The Place at Corkscrew are larger, amenity-rich communities (Bella Terra carries a CDD). Cascades at Estero is 55-plus with a large clubhouse. Choose Estero Place for privacy, low carrying cost, and natural gas over resort amenities.
Estero Place is among the strongest choices specifically for a low-HOA, no-CDD, natural-gas, gated single-family home, which is a niche few Estero communities fill. For amenity-rich alternatives, Bella Terra, The Place at Corkscrew, and Verdana Village are the usual comparisons. We will run a side-by-side for any communities you are weighing. Call Marc at (239) 287-5873.
Lee County's evacuation layer places Estero Palm Way in Evacuation Zone C (storm surge zone 3). Coastal Zones A and B are ordered out first in a surge event. Flood zone is a separate FEMA map; most of Estero Place is Zone X with a Zone AH pocket on panel 12071C0591H.
The Lee County roll shows 5 homes built in 2014, 36 in 2015, 23 in 2016 and 38 in 2017, for 102 in total. The first county permits date to August and October 2014, and the model homes opened in November 2014.
Only two, at $620,000 and $810,000 on the Lee County deed record, against 9 to 16 sales a year from 2021 to 2024. Turnover returned in 2026, with 12 MLS closings in the 12 months to October 21, 2026.
Over five years of MLS closings, homes of about 2,286 to 2,441 square feet sold at medians of $757,500 to $810,000, and the single largest sale in the record, a 2,548-square-foot home, closed at $915,000. In the 12 months to October 2026 the top sale was $814,000.
Lee County assigns by proximity zone and parent ranking. The district's 2026 to 2027 plan lists Pinewoods, Three Oaks, Spring Creek, Bonita Springs and San Carlos Park elementary in Zone Q, Three Oaks and Bonita Springs middle in Zone GG, and Estero High in the South Zone. Confirm the zone for the exact address.
Yes. Stoneybrook Golf Club, about 1.3 miles away in a straight line, sells public tee times; its 2025 to 2026 rack rate for a January to April morning round is $199 plus tax, and $99 from May through October.
Lee County's Imperial River Boat Ramp in Bonita Springs is about 6.4 miles away in a straight line and charges $5 a day to park; Lovers Key State Park also has a ramp. The county's $60 annual parks parking pass covers its ramps.
Corsa at Estero Crossing (306 apartments and retail) is nearly complete across Corkscrew Road, an Aldi and a self-storage project are planned east of Stoneybrook Golf Drive, and the northeast corner of Three Oaks and Corkscrew has an amendment for self-storage and possibly a hotel.
Estero Place sellers work in a sold-out, resale-only community of 102 homes where 12 sold in the 12 months to October 2026 at a median of $697,000, so pricing to the live comps matters. These seller questions cover valuation, timing, closing costs, estoppel and marketing, using the figures stated elsewhere on this page.
Seller-intent Q&A for Estero Place homeowners thinking about listing, grounded in the live Southwest Florida MLS Matrix Development report (September 2026).
McGreevy and Comisar, Jesse McGreevy and Marc Comisar, lead Domain Realty Group and lead the #1 real estate team in Southwest Florida since 2012, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, with over $2.5 Billion in real estate sold as a team. We track the Estero Place Development-filtered MLS week to week and priced the highest Estero Place sale of the past year. Call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072.
Yes, you need a genuine local expert, and that is us. In a 102-home, resale-only community with two distinct price bands and almost no standing inventory, pricing precision decides your outcome. A generalist who reads a ZIP-wide median will misprice your home. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
It depends on your floor plan, whether you back to a lake or preserve, garage count, condition, and roof age, but the 12-month median sold price to October 2026 was $697,000, and homes sold from $533,000 to $814,000 at a median of about $315 per square foot. Get a free valuation at mcgreevyandcomisar.com/home-valuation or call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
Estero Place values are firm, supported by extremely tight supply (about 1.0 month in October 2026) in a sold-out, 102-home community. The 12 months to October 2026 produced a $697,000 median at a median 95.8% of list, below the 2023 calendar-year median of $815,000 on the county record but on 12 sales after a near-silent 2025. Pricing to the current band, not the peak, is what sells.
Start with our free online valuation at mcgreevyandcomisar.com/home-valuation, then call Jesse at (239) 898-6072 for a precise, comp-backed CMA. We pull the Development-filtered MLS report and position your home within the correct price band, entry or larger-home, rather than off a broad average.
In the 12 months to October 2026, 12 homes sold from $533,000 to $814,000. The larger 3-bedroom-plus-den plans closed between about $625,000 and $814,000, and the smaller 2-bedroom-plus-den plans between $533,000 and $600,000. The highest sale, $814,000 on Estero Preserve Run, closed in April 2026.
The highest sale in the last 12 months was $814,000 (21321 Estero Preserve Run, a 3-bedroom-plus-den home). That sale was a Domain Realty listing. Ask us how your home compares to the top of the comp set. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
12 homes closed in Estero Place on the Southwest Florida MLS in the 12 months to October 21, 2026. The Lee County deed record shows 11 to September 25, the same as the MLS over those dates; the twelfth closed September 30. That follows a near-silent 2025 with only 2 closings, so 2026 marks a return to the community's normal pace of roughly 9 to 16 sales a year.
Recent sales had a median of about $315 per square foot, ranging from roughly $264 to $348 depending on plan, lot, and condition. Smaller entry plans and interior lots price lower per foot; larger plans and preserve or lake lots price higher.
Estero Place sellers closed at a median 95.8% of list in the 12 months to October 2026. The deepest discount in the window, a home listed at $849,999 and sold at $750,000 after 123 days, shows what happens when a home launches above its band.
Correctly priced, Estero Place homes went under contract in a median of 54 days over the last year (79-day average, fastest 6). Add 30 to 45 days to close, and a well-prepared, well-priced home typically goes from list to closing in about two to three months. Mispriced homes sit much longer: two listings last year took 123 and 227 days.
Almost always, price. In a 102-home community with about 1.0 month of supply, there is no comp cushion, so an over-listed home has nothing to negotiate against except time. The fix is pricing to the live Development comps out of the gate, plus condition and marketing. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
A seller's market for well-priced homes. With just 1 active listing and about 1.0 month of supply, correctly-priced Estero Place homes are closing near ask. The market is unforgiving of over-pricing, but it favors sellers who price to the live comps.
Estero (ZIP 33928) is tightening: single-family active inventory fell about 30% year over year while closed sales nearly doubled, pushing supply down to about 4.1 months, with cash near 45% of closings. Estero Place is tighter still, about 1.0 month of supply, because it is sold out and finite. It is a favorable environment for well-priced sellers.
About 1.0 month at Estero Place on October 21, 2026 (1 active against a 12-sale annual pace), versus roughly 4.1 months ZIP-wide in Estero earlier in 2026. That extreme tightness is structural: Estero Place is capped at 102 homes and sold out.
Southwest Florida's strongest selling season runs roughly January through April, when snowbird and seasonal buyers are in town, though tight Estero Place supply means well-priced homes sell year-round. The best time for you depends on your goals and your home's readiness. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072 and we will map the timing.
With supply this tight and demand firm, the current market favors well-priced sellers. Whether now is right for you depends on your goals, your home's condition, and the active competition in your band. We will walk you through the live comps honestly before you decide. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
Estero's buyer pool is heavily seasonal and cash-strong (cash was nearly 45% of ZIP closings), peaking in winter and spring. That supports pricing during season, but Estero Place's scarcity keeps well-priced homes moving off-season too. We time and market your listing to the buyer pool that actually closes here.
Plan on roughly 6% to 8% of the sale price all-in: real estate commission, Florida documentary stamp tax on the deed, title and settlement fees, prorated HOA dues, and the HOA estoppel fee. We provide a line-by-line net sheet before you list. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
Real estate commissions in Florida are negotiable and not fixed by law. We will explain our full-service listing program and fee, and show you a complete net-proceeds estimate before you commit to anything.
After the roughly 6% to 8% in typical Florida selling costs, the live comps tell us your realistic net. On a $697,000 median-priced home that is a meaningful number, which is exactly why pricing right the first time matters so much to your bottom line. We show you the math before you list.
An estoppel is the association's certified statement of what a seller owes at closing (dues, fees, any balances), ordered from SAK and Associates. Estero Place also carries a $4,000 transfer fee and a $250 application fee. Who pays each is negotiated in the contract; we coordinate the estoppel order so closing is not delayed.
Price to the live Development-filtered comps within your band, entry (about $533,000 to $600,000) or larger-home (about $625,000 to $814,000), not to a ZIP-wide average. In a 102-home community, launching too high has no comp cushion and costs you time and money. We build your price off the actual Estero Place sales. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
Usually not a full renovation. Targeted moves matter most: fresh paint, decluttering, and a documented roof age and wind-mitigation certificate. We will walk your home and tell you exactly which updates return more than they cost, and which to skip. Over-improving for your band is as costly as under-preparing.
We sell the story this buyer wants: professional photography, drone, and cinematic video of your home and its preserve or lake lot; positioning of the natural-gas advantage and the low-fee, no-CDD ownership story; placement in front of our qualified relocation-and-snowbird buyer database; and honest, documented framing of your roof age, wind-mit credits, and flood zone.
Often, yes. Estero's buyer pool is cash-heavy (nearly 45% of ZIP closings), and tight Estero Place supply means well-priced homes can move quickly. We can also quietly shop your home to motivated buyers in our database when speed or discretion matters, though open-market exposure usually maximizes price. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
Yes. We market as-is homes honestly, disclosing condition while positioning the home's strengths (lot, natural gas, modern-code construction). We will tell you candidly whether a few targeted fixes would net you more than selling strictly as-is. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
Yes. Many Estero owners are snowbirds or have relocated. We handle prep, photography, showings, the HOA estoppel, and closing remotely, keeping you updated at every step. You do not need to be in Florida to sell your Estero Place home well. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
In a tiny, sold-out community where pricing precision and access to the qualified buyer pool decide the outcome, FSBO usually costs sellers more than it saves. The live Development comps, the buyer database, and the marketing that sells the lot and the natural-gas story are hard to replicate alone. We are happy to show you the math. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
Get a comp-backed valuation and a no-pressure conversation about your goals. Start with the free valuation at mcgreevyandcomisar.com/home-valuation, or just call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072, text or call, confidential conversations welcome. We will show you the live comps, a realistic net sheet, and a marketing plan before you commit to anything.
Because Estero Place is won on local, community-specific expertise, not a national brand. We track the Estero Place Development-filtered MLS week to week, we know the two price bands and the preserve-versus-lake lots, and we priced the year's highest Estero Place sale. As the leaders of Domain Realty Group, we lead the #1 real estate team in Southwest Florida since 2012 with over $2.5 Billion sold. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
In Lee County, the seller customarily pays for the buyer's owner's title insurance policy, so build it into your net proceeds. Your contract can allocate it differently, and we map the full closing-cost picture, including the association fees, before you list. Call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072.
Yes. Florida Statutes 689.261 requires a residential sales contract to carry a property tax disclosure summary telling the buyer that taxes may change after the sale. Estero Place has no CDD, so its tax bill carries no CDD line, which we point out to buyers. Our contracts include the required disclosure.
Under Johnson v. Davis, a Florida seller must disclose known facts that materially affect a home's value and are not readily observable. Estero Place is mostly Zone X with a Zone AH pocket that varies lot to lot, so your parcel's zone, any past water intrusion and the age of your roof are the items we help you document accurately before you list.
The 12-month median to October 2026 was $697,000, below the 2023 county calendar-year median of $815,000 and the 2024 median of $710,000, after a 2025 with only two sales. The 60-month median is $727,500 on the MLS. Pricing to the current band, not the 2023 peak, is what sells now.
Yes. Over the same dates, both show 11 sales and a $694,000 median for the 12 months to September 25, 2026. Our October 21 MLS pull adds a twelfth sale, $700,000 on September 30, after the county window, which moves the MLS 12-month median to $697,000. Two independent records landing on the same number is a strong pricing anchor.
Start with the price band for your plan size, then subtract Florida documentary stamp tax of $0.70 per $100, the owner's title policy (customarily paid by the seller in Lee County), the HOA estoppel and any negotiated commission. Estimate your net proceeds with our seller net sheet, then call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
Over five years of MLS closings, the 2,286-square-foot homes carried the highest median, $810,000 on five sales, followed by 2,337 square feet at $789,999 on seven sales. The 1,924-square-foot plan, the most common size on the roll, sold at a $569,000 median on eight sales.
The 2026 county sales were spread across all four streets: Estero Palm Way 5 sales at a $694,000 median, Estero Preserve Run 4 at $667,500, and one each on Estero Grove Way and Estero Vista Court. Plan size and lot position (lake or preserve) explain more of the spread than the street name.
