About 14871 Canaan DR

Welcome to the pinnacle of waterfront Florida living. Exquisitely renovated and impeccably maintained, this exceptional pool home is ideally positioned on a direct-access canal in Palm Acres, one of South Fort Myers’ most coveted boating communities. The residence remained free of water intrusion throughout past storms, offering an added measure of confidence and peace of mind.

A private waterfront oasis awaits outdoors. The beautifully redesigned pool features a sun shelf, in-water loungers, cascading waterfall, hot tub, and elegant marble paver deck. Two boat docks with 5,000- and 20,000-lb. lifts, Trex decking, and a wraparound dock create effortless access to the river and Gulf of Mexico, placing exceptional boating and fishing just minutes from home. A built-in BULL gas grill completes the ideal setting for outdoor entertaining.

Hurricane-impact windows and doors, complemented by Kevlar screens, provide enhanced protection, while an assumable flood insurance policy is available at approximately $1,467 annually. A circular paver driveway, professionally designed landscaping, custom exterior lighting, and a tranquil illuminated waterfall create a striking first impression. Through the double impact-glass entry doors, sweeping views immediately draw you toward the resort-inspired outdoor living space and tranquil canal beyond.

Inside, refined craftsmanship is showcased throughout, with solid wood doors, extensive baseboards and crown molding, soaring vaulted ceilings, and French-pattern travertine flooring. Formal living and dining spaces offer timeless elegance, while the beautifully updated kitchen combines sophistication and function with granite countertops, white cabinetry, travertine backsplash, under-cabinet and ambient lighting, and stainless-steel Bosch appliances, including a refrigerator with a 15-bottle wine drawer and induction cooktop. A breakfast bar flows seamlessly into the casual dining area and family room, creating an inviting environment for everyday living and entertaining.

Fresh interior paint enhances the light, airy ambiance. The split-bedroom design provides exceptional privacy, while multiple rooms offer direct access to the screened lanai and pool. The third bedroom, currently styled as a private home office, provides flexibility. Each bedroom features generous custom California Closets walk-in storage.

The expansive primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a spa-inspired bath and dual vanities. An oversized two-car garage with epoxy flooring, slat-wall storage, and mini-split A/C adds exceptional functionality. This beautifully appointed waterfront residence captures the essence of refined Florida living—where luxury, privacy, and boating converge.
