What Makes Old Naples Real Estate Stand Out?

  • Exceptional architecture has something for every taste.  With historic beach cottages dating back to the early 1900s, quaint condos, to the very best in locally designed homes.

  • Pristine white beaches renowned for their cleanliness and natural beauty steal the show as scenic Gulf of Mexico sunsets aren’t obstructed by hi-rise condo buildings.  Voted the best all-around beach in America by the Travel Channel, Old Naples’ fabulous 1.75 mile-long stretch of beach has 20 public access points for your convenience.
  • A world-class retail and dining experience.  With boutique clothing stores, exquisite gift shops, superb restaurants, and art galleries, you won’t be short of entertainment between Fifth Avenue South and Third Street South.  Living in Old Naples, a short walk or scenic bike ride will take you through the beautifully landscaped homes of Old Naples Real Estate.
  • Naples was ranked No. 1 Small Arts Town in America by John Villani in his book ‘100 Best Art Towns in America’.  From regular exhibitions to art stores and galleries, if you love art, you’ll love living close to all the action in downtown Naples. To know historical facts about Old Naples visit this blog post.
  • Easily Walkable. Unlike some neighborhoods that seem to sprawl on forever, Old Naples is a fairly compact neighborhood that is easy to get around on foot or bicycle.  In just a few minutes, you can stroll to the beach, walk to the downtown Naples action or pick up a game of tennis at the Arthur L. Allen Tennis Center.  You will never be far from the amenities you need.

“Matt Brown is a fantastic Naples real estate agent. We recently bought a house in Old Naples. Matt gave us great advice from negotiating to closing. He has great local knowledge and contacts and phone numbers for everything from Florida Power and Light, to the water co (whom he called for us), to repairmen, painters and contractors. Matt took the lead during the inspection and afterward to ensure several repairs were completed by the prior owner. He worked with tremendous competence and attention to detail through out the process. We can’t imagine having gotten thorough this (much of the time in NY) without Matt. He is also a nice guy ! We have recommended Matt to several friends thinking of buying or renting in Naples.”
