You've heard about Gateway. The community in Fort Myers that actually thought about how people live. Where your kids can walk (or bus) to award-winning public and charter schools. Where there's a pre-school when you need it and a golf course when you're ready for it. Where restaurants, a bank, gas stations, churches, ball fields, and walking trails aren't something you drive to—they're just there. This is the neighborhood that works for young families buying their first place, investors building portfolios and snowbirds who want Florida living without the hassle. This townhome at Stoneybrook gets you into all of that for $199,000. Here's what makes Gateway different: it's not one development trying to be everything to everyone. It's a complete community with different subdivisions with estate homes on golf courses, starter homes for first-time buyers, and everything in between. Different ages, different stages, all in one place. Kids riding bikes. Dog parks. Walking trails that people actually use. A golf course designed by Gordon Lewis that's won awards and offers different membership levels depending on how serious you are about your game. This townhome works whether you're moving in or renting it out. The HOA allows twelve leases per year with a thirty-day minimum, which means flexibility for investors and options for owners. Rental range is $1,650 to $1,750, which covers your mortgage and then some at this price point. Inside, you've got 1,457 sf laid out the way townhomes should be. Main floor with formal dining, living space, and a half bath. Upstairs, two bedrooms with private baths—because nobody wants to share a bathroom AND the master bath is renovated. Loft area that becomes your office, workout space, kids' playroom, or wherever life takes you. New fridge. Newer carpet upstairs. Newer roof. Renovated bathroom. This one's been maintained, not neglected. The HOA covers the pool and dog park, running $318 per month. You're minutes from I-75, which means the Forum and everything else in Fort Myers is close when you need it. But here's the thing about Gateway: once you're here, you don't have to leave. Groceries, gas, dinner out, your kid's soccer game, flag football, your morning walk—it's all right here. At $199,000, this is your entry into a community that people pay a premium to live in. Whether you're looking for a place to call home or an investment that makes sense, Gateway delivers. And this townhome gets you in the door.
