Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2004
I was originally born in Winnipeg, Canada a city with a very cold climate. Many people often vacation in Florida to get away from the cold, and I ended up buying a house I hope to retire to someday, in North Fort Myers, Florida. I have lived and worked as a Computer Consultant in San Francisco for over 14 years now. Please enjoy my home while you are visiting.
Why the Owner Chose North Fort Myers
I was looking for a tropical location in the USA near the ocean with sailing and lots of vacation activities. I travelled all over Florida, and decided to take a last drive back through the Fort Myers area. To me it felt more like home, with friendly people, and more of a quieter country feel, but with all the beautiful beaches and activities Florida has to offer, plus the best amenities I have seen.
The Unique Benefits of this House
I enjoy relaxing by the pool so much, the restaurants and great brunches, and the fitness center and golf, and the beautiful beaches, and am looking forward to watching some baseball spring training games. It is a great place to relax and you'll find you won't want to leave Herons Glen, it has such a nice atmosphere. Fort Myers, the City of Palms, is just the right size, and close to Tampa, Miami, and Orlando when you are looking for that bigger city feel.
