Estero Real Estate

Estero, Florida, was once referred to as South Ft. Myers, but today has become a community with its own identity of providing an excellent place to live, work and play. As growth and development of Estero continue, so do the amazing real estate options for those who want to buy a home in one of Southwest Florida’s best kept secrets. 

Since being founded in 1882 as an unincorporated area in south Lee County by citrus farmers, new residents have been attracted to Estero’s natural beauty and coastal lifestyle. Today, nearly 20,000 people live in Estero, surrounded by warm gulf breezes, incredible natural beauty, remarkable growth and fantastic opportunities to live the good life. Located to the south of Fort Myers and to the north of Bonita Springs, the Estero River meanders through the community, giving it both its name and its identity as a place where the river joins the sea. Until recently, Estero remained a sleepy river town that was characterized by its single family residential properties, but as the growth of Fort Myers and Bonita Springs continues, so does the development of Estero. 

In fact, Estero is rapidly, but carefully, changing from a rural area to a burgeoning community with modern amenities and attractions that are increasingly attractive to homebuyers. It seems that everywhere you visit in Estero, new homes, subdivisions and businesses are in development. This quick development is carefully monitored under the direction of Lee County as residents here want to keep the old river-front character and combine it with intelligent initiatives that will retain its charm. Local and energetic organizations in Estero like the Historical Society, Art League and other social associations strive to conserve the community’s lush natural environment while welcoming continued growth. 

Estero is now the home of Southwest Florida’s only four-year university, Florida Gulf Coast University, which brought with it when it opened in 1997 an influx of new opportunities for the area in higher education, youth and art. In 1998 the Miromar Outlets opened in Estero offering 700,000-square-feet of business operations on 70 acres to join the other many local and national establishments. Germain Arena, also opened in 1998, is home of the Florida Everblades hockey team, the Sea Dragons basketball team and the Firecats, a minor league arena football team. These developments have created both an increase in population and growth in Estero’s real estate market.

Estero’s real estate market continues to expand to meet the needs of a growing population of homebuyers and now features nearly every type of community imaginable. From planned communities with great amenities, affordable condos located near the university, excellent single family homes and even high-end luxury properties can now be found for sale in Estero. As one of the last areas to be developed in Lee County, Estero provides those looking to enjoy the year-round sunshine, excellent schools and healthcare a terrific opportunity for a place to call home.
