Jay Westerlund<\/a>. “The backyard pool area was a $2 million-plus investment by Lucas Congdon of Lucas Lagoons, creating a private resort-style environment.\u201d<\/p>\nAnd \u201cresort-style\u201d might just be an understatement.<\/p>\n
The centerpiece of the design is an award-winning custom pool and spa, complete with natural stone sourced from Chattanooga, TN.<\/p>\n
The saltwater pool plunges up to 8 feet and includes a dramatic waterfall, grotto, and twisting waterslide. Fire bowls and tiki torches illuminate the space at night, while hidden speakers add music throughout the pool area.<\/p>\n
A propane firepit, putting green, and expansive lawn complete the outdoor space. The fully fenced yard also includes turf with integrated drainage, landscape lighting, and a bug-misting system\u2014all considered essential for luxury outdoor living in southwest Florida.<\/p>\n
Multiple covered lounge areas feature wood ceilings, ceiling fans, and a gas stone fireplace, while a pergola provides additional shaded seating.<\/p>\n
The outdoor kitchen is equally impressive, anchored by an Alfresco grill and hood and equipped with a large EEVO hibachi grill, ice machine, sink, and leathered quartzite countertops.<\/p>\n

The property\u2019s riverfront setting adds another layer of appeal. Located directly on the Cocohatchee River, the estate includes a private dock and pier with direct Gulf access.<\/p>\n
Boaters will appreciate two boat lifts, two Jet Ski lifts, and a covered boat slip, along with a lighted fish-cleaning station. The surrounding waters are known for excellent fishing\u2014with snook, tarpon, and mullet all commonly found nearby.<\/p>\n
Inside, the home reflects a warm yet sophisticated architectural style that blends natural stone, exposed wood beams, and distinctive brick accents.<\/p>\n
“Because it was built in 2021, the home features modern construction and high-end finishes throughout,” says Westerlund. “But one particularly unique feature is the dual attached garages with capacity for up to 10 vehicles.”<\/p>\n
The sale also includes two single-post vehicle lifts, making the space ideal for collectors or enthusiasts.<\/p>\n
The home\u2019s location in North Naples also places it within easy reach of some of the region\u2019s best beaches and attractions. Vanderbilt Beach and Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park are just a few miles away, while Naples Airport is about 10 miles from the property.<\/p>\n
But it’s the combination of land, luxury design, and water access\u2014both in the form of a resort-style pool and Gulf access\u2014that truly sets the estate apart.<\/p>\n
“Properties with 3-plus acres in southwest Florida are extremely rare, and finding that amount of land on a Gulf-access river is almost unheard of,” Westerlund says. “This is one of the most spectacular properties I\u2019ve seen in my nearly 20 years of selling luxury real estate.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A sprawling riverfront estate in Naples is making literal waves on the Florida luxury market\u2014not only for its…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":192741,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[2807,28,30,29,89762,89764,89760,89763,89761,42805,1521],"class_list":["post-192740","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-florida","tag-backyard-pool","tag-florida","tag-florida-headlines","tag-florida-news","tag-insane-pools","tag-jay-westerlund","tag-lucas-congdon","tag-lucas-lagoons","tag-luxury-list-media-group","tag-resort-style","tag-southwest-florida"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192740","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=192740"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192740\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/192741"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=192740"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=192740"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=192740"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
