Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This vacant lot, known as "Stairway to Heaven", is located at 5851 Estero Boulevard in Fort Myers Beach, Florida. The property gained national attention after a resilient white staircase was all that remained of a charming 1950s cottage that washed away by Hurricane Ian. The staircase has become a symbol of hope and renewal. The lot offers a blank canvas for a dream beach home. The property's unique story, prime location, and weekly rental zoning advantages promise to make it an extraordinary investment. A new home vacation rental has the potential to generate over $100,000 in vacation rental income, depending on size and number of beds and baths, based on the rental performance of newer home builds on similar-sized lots on Estero Boulevard. The property is located in a prime spot on the island, one mile south of Publix and one mile north of CVS and Santini Plaza with restaurants and shopping. The lot size is 0.171 acres.

Key Highlights

  • Iconic "Stairway to Heaven" lot with national recognition.
  • Prime location on Estero Blvd, a mile from Publix and a mile from Santini Plaza.
  • Weekly rental zoning allows for potential high vacation rental income.
