Cypress Lake High School

It's an established south Fort Myers community with easy access to the Gulf beaches and a good spread of housing — 27 waterfront and 37 pool listings are currently active. Families also value the surrounding schools, including Three Oaks Middle School. It suits buyers who want proximity to the coast without paying beachfront-only prices.

It's a mid-range market for the city, with a median list price of $326,000 and a median sold price of $340,000 over the last 12 months. Average price per square foot sits at $299, so you're paying roughly market rate for a metro this close to the water. The range is wide, though — entry points start around $99,900 while the top of the market runs into the millions.

Median list price is $326,000, and the median home is about 1,532 square feet at $299 per square foot. There are 18 listings above $1M for luxury and waterfront buyers, while more modest condos and homes anchor the lower end near $99,900. You can see the full spread on the live map.

There are 145 active listings, and homes are taking a median of 62 days to sell, so buyers have some time and leverage. Sellers are getting about 95% of their asking price on average, and 216 homes closed over the past year. That's a steady, balanced market rather than a frantic one.

Median property tax runs about $3,039 a year, which is typical for Lee County. HOA fees have a median of $600 a month, reflecting the gated and waterfront communities here — 28 gated listings are active — so always check the specific dues before you commit. If you're renting first, the median rent in the area is around $1,800 a month.
