*New Firm Price * The majestic Adams Mound estate comes complete with three dwellings and a large 45-by-21 foot chicken coop. The main house and one cottage sit high atop an ancient Calusa Indian ceremonial mound, and is one of the highest elevations in Lee County. The two-story home includes three bedrooms and a beautiful remolded bathroom with separate shower and refurbished original claw-foot tub. The main floor boasts a large kitchen and dining room combo, office area, two living rooms and a large Florida room. All the woodwork — including the pine floors — is original. Numerous outdoor seating areas overlook the lush property and its mature landscaping. The upper cottage has a quaint brick fireplace, one bedroom, one bath and kitchen area. The second cottage is mid-renovation and includes a connected barn/shed. The property consists of more than seven acres of mature trees, including many varieties of fruit and palms, especially mango, ylang-ylang, sausage, bottlebrush and starfruit. The property has a pond and sits adjacent to the remnants of the old Calusa canal, which was once a 2.6-mile, 30-foot wide canal built by Calusa using shell tools.
