Ravenna is the most distinctive neighborhood at Miromar Lakes: 60 Venetian-style attached residences on a private, bridge-accessed island of cobblestone streets, built by Gulfshore Homes, most with lake or island-frontage water views.

McGreevy and Comisar are the best realtor team for Ravenna at Miromar Lakes, and we say that with the only proof that holds up: results. Ranked in the Top 1% of real estate agents nationally since 2008 and the #1 team in Southwest Florida since 2012, we know this 60-residence Venetian island enclave building by building, floor by floor, and view by view. If you own a Ravenna residence and are weighing a sale, start with the live picture: one Ravenna residence closed in the trailing 12 months at $1,890,500, and three residences are actively listed right now at a median ask of $1,674,000 in a tight $1,639,000 to $1,684,000 band. Three actives in a 60-unit enclave is a genuinely open window by Ravenna standards, and reading where your specific floor, building, and water view land against that inventory is exactly the judgment that separates a strong close from a stale listing.
If you are buying, Ravenna occupies a niche almost nothing else in Southwest Florida fills: design-driven, low-maintenance attached living on a private bridge-accessed island, with Venetian-themed three-story architecture, cobblestone streets, and lake or island-frontage water views from most residences, all inside the gates of Miromar Lakes Beach and Golf Club on the Estero and Fort Myers line in southern Lee County. One precision note up front, because it shapes everything: Ravenna is attached condominium-form product built by Gulfshore Homes, not single-family, so buyers should expect a building-and-sub-association ownership structure that maintains the exterior consistency the whole neighborhood is built around. This guide covers the buildings, the three floor tiers, the builder pedigree, fees, insurance, the live June 2026 market numbers, and more than 45 frequently asked questions, buyer and seller.
Choosing a realtor for a Ravenna purchase or sale comes down to two things: a verifiable track record and genuine neighborhood-level knowledge of Ravenna at Miromar Lakes. McGreevy and Comisar bring both:
And here is the Ravenna market over the last 12 months, straight from Stellar MLS: 1 closed sale at $1,890,500 (closed August 1, 2025), with 3 residences currently active at a median asking price of $1,674,000, ranging from $1,639,000 to $1,684,000, at a median of 130 days on market. In a community that recorded 72 closed sales overall (median $1,345,904, top sale $4.2 million), Ravenna sits squarely in the upper-mid-luxury tier, well above the community median, with the kind of thin-but-active inventory where pricing precision is everything. Three actives clustered inside a $45,000 spread is a market that rewards the seller who prices to the right comp and the buyer who recognizes a real window when it opens.

Ravenna at Miromar Lakes is a 60-residence luxury attached neighborhood inside Miromar Lakes Beach and Golf Club, built by Gulfshore Homes as 10 three-story Venetian-style buildings of six residences each on a private, bridge-accessed island with cobblestone streets. Its residences run roughly 2,166 to 2,771 square feet under air, all three bedrooms and 3.5 baths with two-car garages, most with lake or island-frontage water views.
That single paragraph contains the three things that define Ravenna: a singular design identity, an island setting, and a maintenance-free ownership model. Most attached neighborhoods in Southwest Florida are built to a formula and dropped somewhere mid-community. Ravenna breaks that pattern. The architecture is a coherent Venetian language, applied across all ten buildings, that exists nowhere else at Miromar Lakes. The setting is a literal island, reached by a bridge inside the main gate, which gives the enclave a gated-within-gated separation that geography creates and money cannot retrofit. And the product is condominium-form, so the sub-association maintains the building envelopes, roofs, and grounds while owners simply turn the key, the lock-and-leave value that the design-driven, part-year buyer Ravenna attracts is specifically shopping for.
Ravenna is also a textbook example of why neighborhood-level representation matters at Miromar Lakes. The community contains more than two dozen distinct neighborhoods, each with its own product type, fee structure, and buyer profile. A buyer who walks in asking for "a condo at Miromar Lakes" could be shown anything from a $700,000 Valencia coach home to an $8.95 million lakefront estate listing. Ravenna competes in its own lane: buyers who value architecture and a theme-coherent address over raw square footage or single-family ownership, who want water views and easy boat access, and who want the building maintained for them. Knowing exactly where that lane begins and ends, and which of the other neighborhoods a given buyer should also see, is what the Top 1% of real estate agents nationally since 2008 actually do for a living.
Ravenna at Miromar Lakes is the community's most thematically committed neighborhood: a private island of cobblestone streets and ten three-story buildings rendered in a unified Venetian architectural language, accessed by a single bridge inside the main Miromar gate. Nothing else in the community, and very little else in Southwest Florida, commits to a coherent design theme at this scale.
The Venetian concept is not decoration applied to a standard building. It is the organizing idea of the entire enclave. Cobblestone streets, the island geography, the consistent three-story massing, and the water orientation of nearly every residence combine into a sense of place that buyers respond to emotionally before they ever look at a floor plan. That matters for value in a way square footage alone does not capture. A Ravenna residence is not simply a set of rooms at a price per foot; it is an address with an identity, and the buyers who want that identity will pay for it and hold it. The neighborhood was conceived as Venetian-inspired waterfront living, and the developer's own marketing leaned into the romance of it: lake views, easy boat access, and the open feel of a detached home delivered in a maintenance-free, lock-and-leave package.
The island setting compounds the effect. Because Ravenna sits on its own island reached by a bridge, the neighborhood feels separate from the rest of the community even though it shares all of the same amenities. There is no through-traffic, no cut-through to anywhere else, and a natural buffer of water on the approach. For owners, that translates into quiet, privacy, and a sense of arrival every time they cross the bridge home. It is the same gated-within-gated quality that the community's most exclusive estate enclaves, the private cul-de-sacs and peninsulas, enjoy, delivered here in attached form at an attached price. For the design-driven buyer, Ravenna is frequently love at first sight, and that is precisely why representation that can separate the emotional pull from the disciplined number matters so much on both sides of a Ravenna transaction.
Ravenna at Miromar Lakes was built by Gulfshore Homes, a Naples-based luxury builder with a long résumé inside Miromar Lakes, including custom and estate work in several of the community's most prestigious enclaves. Ravenna was delivered in phases beginning around 2013, with Phase II sold out by August of that year and buildout continuing through roughly 2019.
Builder lineage matters more in attached product than almost anywhere else, because the builder's structural and layout decisions are permanent and shared across the building. Gulfshore Homes was not a production builder dabbling in condominiums; it is a luxury homebuilder whose name appears repeatedly across Miromar Lakes' custom and estate roster, and that pedigree shows in the specification level at Ravenna. The developer release issued when Phase II sold out documents the standard the neighborhood was built to: gourmet kitchens with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and Sub-Zero and Wolf stainless steel appliances including a chef's five-burner natural gas cooktop; expansive great-room designs with volume ceilings and crown molding; private elevators serving the second and penthouse floors; and covered lanais with sweeping water views and an optional outdoor grill. That same release noted that demand was strong enough that Phase II sold out with construction completing in late August 2013, while the newly released Phase III was already 60 percent sold, and that early residences were priced starting in the mid $600,000s, a number that underscores how far the neighborhood has appreciated to its current $1.6 million to $1.9 million band.
At Ravenna, that builder discipline shows in the decisions that still drive resale value today: a consistent six-residence, three-story building format rather than a sprawling mid-rise; private elevators that make the upper floors genuinely livable rather than a compromise; two-car garages for every residence, rare at this product type; and a penthouse tier designed as the premium product, with an optional library or fourth bedroom, a bar area, and a larger master bath, rather than an afterthought above the "real" units. The Ravenna at Miromar Lakes Condominium Association was established May 30, 2012 (Florida Division of Corporations document N12000005459) and remains active today. Exact year-built dates vary building by building because of the phased delivery; buyers evaluating a specific residence should confirm the precise year built and any building-specific history against Lee County Property Appraiser records, which we pull as a standard part of every Ravenna transaction.
Ravenna at Miromar Lakes consists of 60 residences in 10 three-story buildings of six residences each, addressed along Via Tuscany Lane in ZIP 33913. The three floors are three genuinely different homes: first-floor residences from roughly 2,166 square feet under air, larger second-floor plans, and the largest third-floor penthouses, all 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths with two-car garages and covered lanais.
The six-residence, three-story building format is the quiet structural logic of the whole neighborhood. Rather than a single large mid-rise, Ravenna spreads its 60 residences across ten buildings, which keeps each building intimate, limits shared walls and corridors, and lets nearly every residence capture a water or island-frontage view. With private elevators serving the upper floors, the vertical stacking becomes an advantage rather than a drawback: the higher you go, the bigger the residence and the better the view, and the elevator means you never trade convenience for that elevation.
The three tiers break down like this:
Building addresses run along the Via Tuscany Lane corridor (sample building numbers in the 11000 to 11061 range), with unit numbers keyed to building and floor (first-floor residences typically numbered x01 to x02, second-floor x01 to x02 on the second level, penthouse on the third). Because all 60 residences share the same Venetian design language and the plan variation is by floor rather than by building, valuation at Ravenna turns less on "which building" and more on three variables: floor (penthouses command a premium for size and view, first floors for single-level access), view (lake and island-frontage exposures over interior orientations), and renovation level (original 2010s finishes versus current updates, a spread that can be meaningful at today's prices).
Inside, Ravenna at Miromar Lakes residences deliver the finish level the price band implies: expansive great rooms with volume ceilings and crown molding, gourmet kitchens with granite counters and Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, three bedrooms plus a study on the upper floors, 3.5 baths, wide covered lanais with water views, and attached two-car garages, with private elevators serving the second and penthouse levels.
The Gulfshore Homes specification was upscale for its era and has aged well. The developer release documented the original standard in detail: granite countertops with extensive work space, custom cabinetry, and a Sub-Zero and Wolf stainless appliance package anchored by a chef's five-burner natural gas cooktop; great rooms built for volume and light; crown molding throughout; and lanais wide enough to function as genuine outdoor living rooms, with an optional outdoor grill. On the second and penthouse floors, the private elevator opens to a study and an additional balcony off the master suite, and the penthouse adds the optional library or fourth bedroom, a bar area, and an enlarged master bath. The bones, in other words, are excellent, and they were designed around water views and indoor-outdoor living from the start.
What separates one Ravenna residence from another today is the renovation delta and the view. Roughly a decade after the first buildings delivered, the inventory splits into the familiar tiers: largely original residences (excellent canvases, priced accordingly), partially updated residences (new counters, appliances, and finishes over original baths), and fully reimagined residences. The spread between original and fully renovated is the widest pricing variable in the neighborhood after floor level and view. For buyers, an original-finish Ravenna residence at the lower end of the band is one of the few ways to enter a scarce, design-led neighborhood with built-in upside, and the volume-ceiling great rooms and wide lanais take renovation beautifully. For sellers, it is a strategy question we model explicitly: at Ravenna's price band, selected pre-sale improvements (paint, lighting, counters, fixtures) frequently return multiples of cost, while full renovations rarely pencil right before a sale. We advise per residence, with numbers, never rules of thumb. That judgment, applied to a market where one sale can constitute a full year of closed comps, is where a Top 1% nationally ranked team earns its keep.
Ravenna at Miromar Lakes is attached, condominium-form product, not single-family, which means owners hold their residence within a building governed by the Ravenna condominium association, which maintains the building exteriors, roofs, insurance, and grounds. Understanding that ownership structure is central to buying or selling here correctly.
This is the single most important thing to internalize about Ravenna, and it cuts both ways. On the value side, the condominium structure is the entire point: the sub-association handles the building envelope and grounds, so a seasonal owner who spends part of the year up north never thinks about a roof, exterior paint, or landscaping from a thousand miles away. That maintenance-free, lock-and-leave quality is precisely what the design-driven part-year buyer wants, and it is why the neighborhood holds its appeal across ownership changes. On the diligence side, the condominium structure means the association's financial health is your financial health. The reserves that fund the roofs and exteriors, the master insurance policy on the buildings, any planned or discussed special assessments, the lease and pet rules, and the approval process all live in the condominium documents, and they all matter to your purchase or sale.
Here is how we frame it for clients on each side:
Ravenna at Miromar Lakes sits on its own private island, reached by a single bridge inside the main Miromar gate, with most residences oriented to lake or island-frontage water views and easy boat access, plus the Marina on the Peninsula and its water-taxi service to the Beach Club nearby. The island geography is the neighborhood's defining physical asset.
The bridge-accessed island setting does two things at once. First, it creates separation and privacy: there is no through-traffic on the island, the approach is buffered by water, and the neighborhood feels like a world of its own even though it shares every Miromar amenity. Second, it puts water at the center of daily life. Most Ravenna residences look out over the lake or the island frontage, and the developer specifically marketed the easy boat access and unsurpassed waterfront living that the setting delivers. For owners who want to be on the water, the Marina on the Peninsula handles the logistics through a boat-concierge service: gated boat storage, slip rentals, on-site and mobile fueling, powerboat and sailboat rentals, and guided fishing excursions. The marina also runs a water-taxi service between the Peninsula and the award-winning Beach Club, a genuinely resort-grade touch that is especially relevant to Ravenna given the island's water orientation.
It is worth being precise about what this water access is and is not. Lake Como is an internal freshwater lake with no Gulf access, so boating here is lake boating: exceptional for water sports, fishing, and sunset cruises, but not connected to the Gulf of Mexico. For the Ravenna buyer, the freshwater setting is overwhelmingly a feature, not a limitation. There is no salt to corrode a boat or a lift, no jellyfish, no rip currents, no red tide, and no seaweed or algae blooms of the kind that periodically close Gulf beaches. A Ravenna owner can keep a boat at the marina, cross the bridge home to a quiet island, and look out over calm freshwater every evening, a combination that does not exist anywhere on the coast at this price.
Every Ravenna at Miromar Lakes residence includes full access to the community's defining asset: Lake Como, a 700-acre contiguous freshwater lake reaching depths of 26 to 40 feet, ringed by roughly three miles of private white-sand beach maintained to resort standards, with the marina and water-taxi making the beach an easy trip from the island.
Nothing else in Southwest Florida offers this. The lake is boatable and skiable, supporting water skiing, wakeboarding, sailing, paddleboarding, and freshwater fishing for bass, bream, and catfish, and because it sits entirely within the gates, there is no public ramp, no outside traffic, and no crowding, ever. The beach itself is imported white sand, groomed continuously, with private cabanas on a resident reservation system, and it is anchored by the Blue Water Beach Grill, a resident favorite for two decades, where you can arrive from the sand, by boat, or by the marina's water-taxi from the Ravenna side of the community, and stay through happy hour, live music, and dancing.
For a Ravenna buyer comparing the neighborhood against attached product in coastal Gulf-front buildings, the contrast is stark. This is a private freshwater beach with no public access, no parking battles, and none of the red-tide closures that periodically affect Gulf beaches, paired with water calm enough to ski on at seven in the morning. The island setting of Ravenna gives owners the best of both: a quiet, design-led residence on its own island, and a three-mile resort beach a short marina trip or drive away. The Beach Club campus that anchors the beach, 39,000 square feet across three buildings, is itself part of the package every Ravenna owner buys into, and it functions as the neighborhood's living room on the water.
Ravenna at Miromar Lakes owners enjoy the community's complete five-star amenity suite: the region's only Arthur Hills Signature golf course (optional membership), seven Har-Tru tennis courts, pickleball and bocce, a European wellness spa, a 10,000-square-foot infinity pool, three dining venues, a full-service marina, and a packed year-round social calendar, all behind one 24/7 guarded gate.
The headline facts, organized by relevance to a Ravenna owner:
The community's award record validates the package: Miromar Lakes is the only Florida community ever to win the NAHB Gold Award for #1 Community in the USA, and the only U.S. community to win Gold for both #1 Community and #1 Clubhouse, a historic double gold, followed by more than 200 national, state, and local awards, including the 2024 Lee BIA Pinnacle Grand Award for Best Master-Planned Community of the Year. When we tell relocating buyers that Ravenna pairs the community's most distinctive architecture with the country's most-awarded master-planned community, both halves of that sentence are documented.
Ravenna at Miromar Lakes sits east of I-75 off Ben Hill Griffin Parkway between Corkscrew and Alico roads, on the Estero and Fort Myers line in southern Lee County, 10 to 15 minutes from Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW), immediately adjacent to Florida Gulf Coast University and Miromar Outlets, and positioned squarely between Fort Myers and Naples.
For the seasonal and design-driven buyers who dominate this price band, the airport number is the headline: RSW in roughly 10 to 15 minutes is a convenience no Naples luxury community can match. A Ravenna owner can leave a northern departure gate and be crossing the bridge to the island the same afternoon. The rest of the everyday map is equally strong: Miromar Outlets and the Estero retail corridor (Coconut Point, Gulf Coast Town Center) are minutes away, Hertz Arena is nearby, and FGCU is immediately adjacent, with everything that proximity implies for cultural programming, continuing education, and the long-run institutional health of the corridor. Miromar Lakes' developer ties to FGCU run deep: founder Margaret Antonier received an honorary doctorate in 2023, and in February 2026 the university's Board of Trustees approved naming a major academic building Margaret Antonier Hall following a $10 million philanthropic commitment endowing The Water School.
Families should note that Miromar Lakes is an all-ages community (no age restriction at Ravenna or anywhere in the community) served by the Lee County School District's proximity-based school-choice system, in which families select from schools based on proximity and availability rather than a single guaranteed assignment, so buyers with school-age children should confirm current options directly with the district. Gulf beaches are a short drive west, and downtown Naples and downtown Fort Myers are each within an easy half-hour band depending on season and time of day. For a neighborhood whose buyers are so often relocating from out of area, the combination of airport proximity, a coherent island address, and a maintenance-free residence is a powerful one.
Ravenna at Miromar Lakes ownership carries three cost layers: the community-wide Miromar Lakes master association and Beach and Golf Club dues (approximately $9,200 per year, plus a one-time $10,000 club fee at purchase), the Ravenna condominium association covering building exteriors, roofs, insurance, and grounds, and a CDD assessment on the annual tax bill. Golf membership is optional.
Here is how the stack works, layer by layer:
One honest caution from the team that sells here: published fee figures for Miromar Lakes neighborhoods are wrong on the internet more often than they are right, because they change annually and third-party sites do not update. Rather than anchor on a number from a stale listing, get the current association budget, the current club dues schedule, and the actual CDD line from the tax bill, all of which we pull as a standard part of every Ravenna transaction, buy side or list side. Call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072 and we will walk the full cost-of-ownership stack for any specific residence before you commit to anything.
Ravenna at Miromar Lakes sits east of I-75, roughly 10 to 12 miles inland from the open Gulf, outside the coastal storm-surge band that drives the region's worst insurance outcomes, giving owners a materially lower wind-and-flood cost of carry than comparable Gulf-front attached product, with the building association's master policy covering the structures themselves.
After the 2022 to 2024 hurricane cycle reshaped Southwest Florida's insurance market, "east of I-75" stopped being a geography note and became a financial planning input. Surge, the deadliest and most property-destructive element of a landfalling hurricane, is a coastal phenomenon, and Ravenna's inland setting on a freshwater lake system engineered for drainage places it in a fundamentally different risk category than the barrier islands and Gulf-front corridors. Owners still carry coverage, as all of Florida does, and buyers should always pull the current FEMA flood-zone determination for the specific building during due diligence. But the condominium structure further trims the individual owner's exposure: the association's master policy covers the buildings themselves, with owners insuring interiors and contents under condominium-form policies (HO-6), which means a Ravenna owner is not insuring an entire detached dwelling the way a single-family owner is.
It is also worth saying plainly: the community's infrastructure record through recent storms has been strong, and the lake system, engineered as the stormwater backbone of the development, did its job. For northern buyers comparing a Ravenna residence against coastal condominiums with special assessments, structural-integrity reserve studies, and post-storm insurance repricing, the total-risk picture here is one of the strongest arguments the neighborhood makes for itself. The island setting can prompt a reasonable question about water exposure, which is exactly why the building-by-building FEMA determination and the association's master policy and reserve posture should be reviewed for any specific residence, and we lay out the actual numbers, current premiums, association insurance structure, and reserve standing, for any residence you are considering. Call Marc at (239) 287-5873.
Ravenna at Miromar Lakes sits inside one of Southwest Florida's strongest luxury rental markets: community-wide, Miromar Lakes rentals lease at roughly 100% of asking price with a median achieved rent of $7,500 per month, and Ravenna's design-led, water-view residences compete at the top of that demand pool.
The community-wide numbers (live June 2026 pull) tell a story of structural undersupply: seasonal demand for furnished luxury rentals at Miromar Lakes chronically exceeds the inventory owners make available, which is why achieved rents match asking rents, there is no negotiation when there is no alternative. Ravenna's specific profile, a distinctive island address, water views, a two-car garage, and a turnkey-friendly maintenance-free structure, makes it exactly what the strongest segment of that tenant pool wants: executive relocations, try-before-you-buy luxury shoppers, and seasonal renters who want something with character. Owners should note that leasing at Ravenna is governed by the condominium association's minimum-lease-term and approval rules. Community norms at Miromar Lakes run to multi-month minimums, not short-term rental, and Miromar Lakes is emphatically not an Airbnb market; this is long-season, high-quality tenancy.
As an investment, the honest frame is appreciation-plus-lifestyle rather than yield: at a $1.6 million to $1.9 million price band and luxury-band rents, cap rates are what you would expect from trophy residential. The capital case rests on scarcity (60 residences, a single closed sale in the trailing 12 months), a design identity that holds buyer interest across cycles, and the community's relentless amenity reinvestment. The neighborhood's history supports the appreciation thesis plainly: residences that started in the mid $600,000s when the developer released early phases now trade in the $1.6 million to $1.9 million range. For owners who use the residence part-year, seasonal leasing can offset a meaningful share of the carry, and we can model the actual numbers, including club-access rules for tenants, before you decide. Confidential conversations welcome: (239) 898-6072.
Ravenna at Miromar Lakes fits buyers who value distinctive architecture, a coherent theme, and a private island address, and who want maintenance-free, lock-and-leave attached living with water views and easy boat access. It is the wrong fit for buyers who need single-family detachment, a private pool, the largest possible square footage, or sub-$1.5 million pricing.
The right-fit profiles, drawn from the actual buyers we have represented here and across the community:
And who should not buy here, said plainly because it saves everyone time: buyers who need a private pool in their own lanai (the 10,000-square-foot infinity pool is spectacular, but it is the community's, not yours); buyers for whom any shared wall is a dealbreaker (look at the detached villa and single-family neighborhoods); golf-first buyers who want a fairway out the back door (look at the golf-corridor neighborhoods); and buyers shopping under $1.5 million (the community's coach-home neighborhoods, including the larger-format options we cover on our Montebello guide, are the more attainable attached entries). Steering a buyer to the right neighborhood, even when it is not the one they called about, is exactly how a team stays #1 in Southwest Florida for more than a decade.
Among Miromar Lakes' attached-home neighborhoods, Ravenna at Miromar Lakes is the design-and-island leader: its Venetian architecture and bridge-accessed island setting are singular, and its three-story, six-residence buildings with private elevators and two-car garages sit in the community's upper-mid-luxury attached tier. The other attached neighborhoods each trade away the design identity or the island setting for a different advantage.
The honest head-to-head, the way we would whiteboard it for a buyer touring the attached options:
The pattern in the comparison: every alternative beats Ravenna on exactly one axis, price (the value coach homes), interior scale (Montebello), or pure single-floor privacy (Bellini, Vivaldi), and Ravenna beats all of them on architectural identity and the bridge-accessed island setting. That is why its buyers are so often design-led and so loyal once they cross the bridge, and why the right listing strategy here markets the address and the identity, not just the square footage.
Every Ravenna at Miromar Lakes transaction runs through condominium-specific mechanics, association application and approval, estoppel letters, condominium-document review periods, the one-time $10,000 club fee, and club-membership coordination at closing, and getting them sequenced correctly protects both price and timeline.
For buyers, the Florida condominium purchase framework gives you a document-review window after receiving the condominium documents (declaration, budget, rules, recent meeting minutes, and the association's financial posture including reserves). At Ravenna we read these for you with specific attention to: reserve funding for roofs and building exteriors (the association maintains them, so its balance sheet is your balance sheet), any planned or discussed assessments, the master insurance structure on the buildings, lease-minimum and approval rules if rental flexibility matters to you, and pet provisions. Add the Miromar Lakes layers: the $10,000 one-time club contribution and the club dues schedule at closing, plus CDD verification on the tax bill. None of this is exotic, but all of it is checkable before you are committed, and we check it.
For sellers, the mechanics run in reverse and start earlier: the estoppel and association coordination are routine, but the strategic work is in the comp narrative. With as few as one closing in a year, a Ravenna listing is priced partly on neighborhood comps and partly on a disciplined argument, the most recent Ravenna sale, the current active band, adjusted comparisons to the community's other upper-tier attached product, and the renovation and floor-and-view delta of your specific residence. That argument has to survive the appraisal, which means it has to be built from verifiable MLS data, not enthusiasm. This is precisely the work we show sellers in a listing consultation, and it is why our Ravenna sellers do not leave money on the table to a lazy comp set that ignores the floor, the view, or the design premium.

The Ravenna at Miromar Lakes resale market over the trailing 12 months, from a live Stellar MLS pull: 1 closed sale at $1,890,500 (closed August 1, 2025), with 3 active listings at a median ask of $1,674,000 (range $1,639,000 to $1,684,000), at a median of 130 days on market.
Community context: Miromar Lakes overall recorded 72 closed sales in the same trailing 12 months at a community-wide median of $1,345,904, with a top sale of $4.2 million, and 59 active listings as of June 2026. Rentals community-wide lease at roughly 100% of asking, with a median achieved rent of $7,500 per month. Read together: Ravenna's single 2025 close at $1,890,500 ran well above the community median, while the three current actives cluster tightly between $1,639,000 and $1,684,000, a narrow $45,000 spread that signals current-inventory consistency rather than a declared price move. With three residences active in a 60-unit enclave, this is one of the more open buying windows Ravenna has offered recently; in a typical year, inventory here is thin, and a serious buyer should treat an active, on-theme listing as the opportunity it is. The median 130 days on market reflects the patient, design-driven buyer pool: the right buyer for a Venetian island residence is specific, and matching the residence to that buyer (and pricing it correctly to the floor and view) is the dominant variable in time-to-contract.
Neighborhood figures from Stellar MLS Matrix for the Miromar Lakes Beach & Golf Club development, trailing 12 months as of June 2026; grouped by MLS Sub/Condo name; updated periodically. Because Ravenna's closed-sale sample is a single transaction, any valuation here leans heavily on the active band, disciplined adjustments to comparable upper-tier attached product, and residence-specific factors (floor, view, renovation). That is exactly the analysis we run, and exactly why a thin-data neighborhood like Ravenna is the wrong place to trust an automated estimate.
If you have been searching "sell my Ravenna home" or looking for a Ravenna listing agent who actually understands the design premium, the island setting, and the floor-by-floor value spread, this is the conversation to have first. The market backdrop is workable for sellers: a single 2025 close at $1,890,500, only three competing actives clustered in a tight band, and a 60-residence enclave where scarcity is structural. The challenge in a thin-data neighborhood is not demand; it is pricing the residence correctly to its floor, view, and condition, and reaching the specific design-driven buyer who wants exactly this address.

The Ravenna-specific work: a valuation built strictly from Ravenna data and disciplined adjustments (the recent sale, the active band, comparable upper-tier attached product, and your residence's floor, view, and renovation level), a pricing strategy that markets the architectural identity and island setting that command Ravenna its premium, photography and video that sell the Venetian theme and the water views, marketing reach into the out-of-area and international buyer pools that close at this price band, and quiet handling of the association, estoppel, and club-transfer mechanics so the contract you sign is the contract that closes. Off-market and confidential representation are available, in a 60-unit neighborhood, some owners prefer to test demand without a public listing, and we maintain an active book of qualified Miromar Lakes buyers for exactly that conversation.

Ravenna is a 60-residence luxury attached neighborhood inside Miromar Lakes Beach and Golf Club in southern Lee County, Florida. It consists of 10 three-story Venetian-style buildings of six residences each on a private, bridge-accessed island with cobblestone streets, built by Gulfshore Homes. Residences run roughly 2,166 to 2,771 square feet under air, all three bedrooms and 3.5 baths with two-car garages.
Sixty. Ten three-story buildings, six residences per building, across the three floors. Most residences carry lake or island-frontage water views, and every residence includes a two-car garage and a covered lanai.
Gulfshore Homes, a Naples-based luxury builder with a long résumé inside Miromar Lakes. Ravenna was delivered in phases beginning around 2013, with Phase II sold out by August 2013 per the developer's release and buildout continuing through roughly 2019. The Ravenna condominium association was established May 30, 2012 per Florida Division of Corporations records (document N12000005459).
Attached, condominium-form product, not single-family. Owners hold their residence within a three-story building governed by the Ravenna condominium association, which maintains the building exteriors, roofs, insurance, and grounds. This is the maintenance-free, lock-and-leave value the neighborhood is built around, and it is the single most important thing for a buyer to understand here.
Under-air floor plans run roughly 2,166 to 2,771 square feet, with first-floor residences starting around 2,166 square feet, larger second-floor plans, and the largest on the third-floor penthouse level. Including the covered lanai and two-car garage, total square footage reaches well past 3,600 on the upper floors. All plans are three bedrooms and 3.5 baths.
The trailing-12-month Stellar MLS record (June 2026): one closed sale at $1,890,500 (closed August 1, 2025), with three residences actively listed at a median ask of $1,674,000, ranging from $1,639,000 to $1,684,000. For context, early residences started in the mid $600,000s when the developer released the first phases around 2013, so the neighborhood has appreciated substantially.
Private elevators serve the second and penthouse (third) floors, opening to a study and an additional balcony off the master bedroom per the developer specification. First-floor residences have direct ground-level access. Elevator and configuration details should be confirmed residence by residence, which we do as a standard part of showing or valuing a Ravenna home.
The third-floor penthouse is the trophy tier: the largest residence in the building (up to roughly 2,771 square feet under air, well past 3,600 total), the best elevation and water views, a private elevator, and an optional library or fourth bedroom, a bar area, and a larger master bath. It lives like a single-family home in the sky with the maintenance handled for you.
Yes, an attached two-car garage is standard for every residence, a meaningful differentiator versus much condominium product at this price point and part of why Ravenna delivers the open feel of a detached home in attached form.
Because it is the only neighborhood that commits fully to a coherent architectural theme. The Venetian-style buildings, the cobblestone streets, the private island setting, and the consistent three-story massing combine into a sense of place that exists nowhere else in the community. Buyers who value architecture and identity over raw square footage gravitate to Ravenna specifically.
Ravenna sits on its own island, reached by a single bridge inside the main Miromar gate. There is no through-traffic, the approach is buffered by water, and the neighborhood feels separate and private even though it shares every community amenity. It is a gated-within-gated quality, delivered at an attached price.
Yes. Most residences have easy boat access and water views, and the Marina on the Peninsula handles slip rentals, gated boat storage, fueling, rentals, and guided fishing through a boat-concierge service. The marina also runs a water-taxi service to the Beach Club. Lake Como is a 700-acre boatable, skiable freshwater lake entirely within the gates, with no public ramp.
Lake Como is a 700-acre internal freshwater lake with no Gulf access. Boating here is lake boating, exceptional for water sports, fishing, and sunset cruises, but it does not connect to the Gulf of Mexico. For most Ravenna buyers the freshwater setting is a feature: no salt, no jellyfish, no rip currents, no red tide, and no seaweed or algae closures.
The full Miromar Lakes Beach and Golf Club suite: the 700-acre freshwater Lake Como with roughly three miles of private white-sand beach, the Beach Club with its 10,000-square-foot infinity pool, a European wellness spa, a state-of-the-art fitness center, a 50-seat theater, three dining venues including the Blue Water Beach Grill, a full-service marina with boat concierge and water-taxi, seven Har-Tru tennis courts, pickleball and bocce, a curated year-round social calendar, and 24/7 guard-gated security. Golf on the Arthur Hills Signature course is by optional membership.
No. Golf at Miromar Lakes is optional, the Arthur Hills Signature course (the region's only one) carries a confirmed $140,000 initiation fee plus annual dues for those who choose to join, but nothing golf-related is bundled into Ravenna's mandatory cost of ownership.
Three layers: master association and Beach and Golf Club dues (approximately $9,200 per year in 2026, plus a one-time $10,000 club fee at purchase), the Ravenna condominium association assessment (covering building exteriors, roofs, building insurance, and grounds, with a third-party figure circulating near $750 per month that should be confirmed against the current association budget), and a CDD assessment that appears on the annual property tax bill. We pull the current numbers on every transaction.
Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) is roughly 10 to 15 minutes away, a convenience no comparable Naples community can match. Florida Gulf Coast University, Miromar Outlets, and Hertz Arena are immediately adjacent, and Gulf beaches are a short drive west.
Miromar Lakes addresses use "Miromar Lakes, FL 33913" and sit in southern Lee County off Ben Hill Griffin Parkway between Corkscrew and Alico roads, east of I-75, on the Estero and Fort Myers line, immediately adjacent to FGCU and minutes from the Estero retail corridor. See our complete Estero guide for the surrounding area.
No. Miromar Lakes, Ravenna included, is an all-ages community. Families are served by the Lee County School District's proximity-based school-choice system; buyers with school-age children should confirm current school options directly with the district.
Favorably. Ravenna sits east of I-75, roughly 10 to 12 miles inland from the open Gulf, outside the coastal storm-surge band that drives the region's worst outcomes and insurance repricing. The association's master policy insures the buildings; owners carry condominium-form (HO-6) interior coverage. Because of the island setting, always pull the current FEMA flood determination for the specific building during due diligence, which we do as standard practice.
Most residences carry lake or island-frontage water views, with the upper floors enjoying elevated sightlines. View quality is one of the three main pricing variables here (along with floor level and renovation), so we evaluate it residence by residence rather than generalizing across the neighborhood.
Miromar Lakes is broadly pet-friendly, but the binding rules (number, size, breed provisions) live in the Ravenna condominium documents. We confirm current pet provisions from the documents during the review period on every purchase rather than relying on summaries.
Leasing is permitted subject to the condominium association's minimum-term and approval rules, Miromar Lakes community norms run to multi-month minimums, and this is not a short-term-rental market. Community-wide, Miromar Lakes rentals lease at roughly 100% of asking with a median achieved rent of $7,500 per month, and Ravenna's distinctive, water-view residences compete at the top of that pool. We confirm the current lease rules from the documents before you buy if rental flexibility matters.
Not often. The trailing 12 months saw a single closed sale, with three residences currently active, which is actually an unusually open window for a 60-unit enclave. Some years see one or none close. With three actives now, a serious buyer should be prepared to move when the right floor and view appear, because the next equivalent listing may be a year away. Call Marc at (239) 287-5873 to get ahead of inventory, including off-market opportunities.
Both are waterfront attached neighborhoods of 60 residences with private boat access. Vivaldi is 20 small three-story buildings with one residence per floor and a trailing-12-month median of $1,066,000, living very much like a single-family home with an elevator. Ravenna is 10 larger three-story Venetian buildings (six residences each) on a private island, at a higher price band, with a much stronger design identity. The choice usually comes down to whether the island theme or the one-per-floor privacy matters more to you.
Bellini is the premier single-floor condominium product on Lake Maggiore (20 buildings, one residence per floor, penthouses over 3,000 square feet, trailing-12-month median $1,440,000). Ravenna is attached island product with a Venetian theme. Bellini wins on per-floor privacy and tower-style lake views; Ravenna wins on architectural identity and the bridge-accessed island setting. We can show you both.
The condominium documents and budget (reserves for roofs and exteriors, any discussed assessments, the master insurance structure, lease and pet rules), the current club dues schedule and the $10,000 one-time club fee, the CDD line on the tax bill, the FEMA flood determination for the building, and residence-specific items, floor, view corridor, elevator, and renovation history. We run this checklist on every Ravenna purchase; it is part of why buyers represented by the Top 1% of real estate agents nationally since 2008 close without surprises.
Ravenna is built out, 60 residences, no further development, which is precisely what underpins its scarcity value. The community's active new construction is concentrated in other product types and neighborhoods; see our Miromar Lakes hub for the current new-build picture, including how buying new construction can bypass the golf membership waitlist.
Ravenna's primary amenity is its island setting and the full community suite a short trip away across the bridge. The flagship facilities, the Beach Club, infinity pool, spa, fitness center, and Racquet Club, are shared community amenities rather than duplicated at the neighborhood level.
Call Marc Comisar at (239) 287-5873. With three active listings and thin annual turnover, the productive path is a conversation about your floor, view, and design preferences, a private tour of what is available, and a standing arrangement so you hear about the next listing, including off-market opportunities, before the portals do.
The reference points are the single 2025 close at $1,890,500 and the current active band of $1,639,000 to $1,684,000, but in a one-sale market your specific number turns on floor (first, second, or penthouse), water view, renovation status, and which building you are in. Get a residence-specific valuation built strictly from Ravenna data at mcgreevyandcomisar.com/home-valuation or call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072.
The structural conditions favor a well-priced listing: only three competing actives in a 60-unit enclave, a recent close near $1.9 million as a high-water reference, and a design-driven buyer pool that holds the neighborhood's appeal across cycles. Scarcity does meaningful work here; pricing strategy and reaching the right buyer capture it.
Because a single closed comp is not a market by itself. A credible Ravenna valuation leans on the active band, disciplined adjustments to comparable upper-tier attached product elsewhere in the community, and residence-specific factors (floor, view, condition). This is exactly the analysis automated estimates cannot do, and exactly where neighborhood-level expertise changes your outcome.
The current actives show a median of 130 days on market, which reflects the patient, specific buyer pool for a Venetian island residence rather than weak demand. Correct pricing to the floor and view is the dominant variable: an on-theme residence priced right reaches its buyer, while an overpriced one waits for a market that will not meet it.
Design-driven buyers who want a distinctive, theme-coherent address; lock-and-leave seasonal owners who value the maintenance-free island setting; and water-oriented buyers who want lake views and boat access without a yard, pool, or dock to maintain. They typically arrive from out of area, which is why marketing reach beyond the local MLS matters so much; that reach is core to how McGreevy and Comisar, the #1 team in Southwest Florida since 2012, list this neighborhood.
Selectively, with math. At Ravenna's price band, light-touch improvements (paint, lighting, fixture updates, counter refreshes) routinely return multiples of cost, while full renovations rarely pencil pre-sale. We walk every seller through a residence-specific ROI analysis before a dollar is spent. The renovation delta between original and updated residences is one of the widest pricing variables here after floor and view, so where your home sits on that spectrum drives the plan.
Often advantageous at Miromar Lakes, many buyers are seasonal and arriving from out of area, and turnkey commands a premium when the furnishings suit the design-led character of a Ravenna residence. The developer even offered turnkey furnishing packages originally. Whether it makes sense for your residence depends on furniture quality and your buyer pool; we advise per home and structure it cleanly in the contract.
Commission, title and closing costs, prorated HOA, CDD, and club dues, and the association estoppel and document fees standard to Florida condominium sales. We lay out a complete net-proceeds estimate up front, before you list, so the decision is made on real numbers.
The estoppel is the association's binding statement of your account, current assessments, any outstanding amounts, and transfer requirements. At Ravenna there are effectively two layers (the condominium association and the community master), and ordering both early prevents the closing-week scramble that delays less-managed transactions. We handle the sequencing as standard listing service.
The Beach and Golf Club relationship transfers to your buyer at closing under the club's then-current schedule, the buyer pays the one-time $10,000 club fee, and any optional golf membership follows the club's separate transfer rules. We coordinate the club paperwork alongside the contract so neither timeline slips.
Florida condominium associations typically run an application-and-approval process on sale and lease transactions per their documents. We confirm Ravenna's current procedure and timeline from the association at listing, build it into the contract dates, and shepherd the buyer through it, approvals are routine when managed and a closing risk when forgotten.
Yes, and in a 60-unit neighborhood, discretion has real value. We maintain an active book of qualified Miromar Lakes buyers and regularly conduct quiet, off-market processes for owners who want to test demand without a public listing. Confidential conversations welcome: call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072.
At this price band, the buyer is rarely local. The campaign should reach out-of-area and international luxury pools: professional architectural photography and video that sell the Venetian theme and the water views, syndication into the networks where $1.6 million-plus buyers actually search, positioning that markets the island identity Ravenna is known for, and leverage of our own buyer database built across $2.5 billion in Domain Realty Group team sales. That is the standard package on a McGreevy and Comisar Ravenna listing.
Florida requires delivery of the condominium documents and prescribed disclosures to the buyer, alongside standard property-condition disclosure. Recent statewide attention to condominium reserves and structural reporting makes clean, complete documentation an asset, a well-papered Ravenna listing closes faster and renegotiates less. We prepare the package with you at listing, not at contract.
Yes, positioned honestly. Original-finish residences are a real entry point into a scarce, design-led neighborhood, and there are buyers specifically hunting for a Ravenna canvas they can make their own. The strategy is pricing to the renovation delta rather than pretending it away, and reaching the buyers who want the bones and the address and will finish it to their own taste.
It helps, for the right buyer. The bridge-accessed island is part of what makes Ravenna desirable, privacy, quiet, and a sense of arrival, and our marketing leans into it. The one place it requires care is insurance and flood diligence, where the building-by-building FEMA determination and the association's master policy should be clear and ready for the buyer; we prepare that documentation so the island setting reads as the asset it is, not a question mark.
Because neighborhood-level mastery beats brand wallpaper. We are the Top 1% of real estate agents nationally since 2008, the #1 team in Southwest Florida since 2012 (Domain Realty Group), with over $900 million in personal sales inside a team that has closed over $2.5 billion, and we are the team that carries the live Ravenna data, understands the floor-and-view value spread, knows how to market the Venetian island identity, and maintains the buyer book for this exact enclave. Your listing is priced, marketed, and negotiated by people who can defend every number in it.
