Welcome to Bayshore Commons — where "gated community" doesn't mean stuffy, it means peaceful. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath townhome comes in at 1,748 square feet, which happens to be the largest floor plan Bayshore Commons offers — so if you've been eyeing this North Fort Myers gem but need the extra elbow room, this is your unit. Downstairs and up the staircase, the flooring has been freshly updated, so you can skip the "what do I do about these floors" project and go straight to "where do I put my furniture." The real showstopper, though, is what's behind the house. This unit backs right up to the preserve — no rear neighbors, just trees, birds, and the kind of quiet that makes your coffee taste better. Add in the gated entrance, community pool, and clubhouse, and you've got low-maintenance living that still feels like a retreat. Location-wise, you're minutes from I-75 and US-41, a quick hop to downtown Fort Myers' River District for dinner and live music, easy access to Cape Coral and RSW International Airport, and close enough to Publix that "I forgot milk" is never a crisis. Weekend plans practically write themselves — Six Mile Cypress Slough Preserve for a nature walk, Edison and Ford Winter Estates for some local history, or Fort Myers Beach when you need sand between your toes.
