About this home
Flexible 3-bedroom starter home with investment potential, situated in a quiet neighborhood near US-41, Pine Island Road, Tamiami Trail, and within walking distance of nearby schools. The interior was cosmetically renovated in 2024, including the addition of a fourth bedroom converted from the living room. The layout allows flexibility to retain the additional bedroom or restore the space to a family room.
Currently used as a rental, the property has a lease expiring in February 2027. The tenant has a history of timely payments and prefers to remain through the lease term but is flexible regarding an earlier vacancy. Kitchen appliances were purchased new approximately two years ago, and the water heater was replaced in 2025.
The attached garage offers potential for future ADU, studio, or efficiency conversion, subject to zoning and permitting requirements. The spacious backyard offers room for a potential future pool.

Property taxes
✓ Certified county tax rollProperty taxes in Florida are reassessed after a sale, so a buyer’s first full-year bill can be higher than the seller’s. Budget from this estimate, not the current bill, before you make an offer.
The current owner’s taxable value is below today’s asking price; after a sale the assessment is set from market value, so the estimated bill is higher. Exemptions and portability can reduce it.
Certified 2025 tax roll values for this parcel (Florida DOR). The roll gives values, not the bill; the current owner’s bill above is estimated from the taxable value.

What it really costs to own 977 Winsome Rd
The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from this listing's MLS record, the county tax roll, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
| Property tax | The current owner's bill is about $2,325/yr (certified county roll, taxable value × millage). Buy at the asking price of $257,000 and the first-year bill resets to about $3,300/yr (the parcel is matched to the certified roll; asking price less the $50,000 homestead exemption × 15.97 mills); Save Our Homes caps later increases at 3%/yr. |
|---|---|
| Home and flood insurance | The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Lee County is $2,197/yr (6,508 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes differ by roof age, wind mitigation and distance to the coast. The page's modeled range for this home is $1,000–$2,500/yr; neither is a quote. Flood: this address maps to FEMA zone X, outside the high-risk zone; flood insurance is optional but most lenders and insurers recommend it. Statewide, a zone X flood policy runs about $500–$700/yr (FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 averages, not a quote). |
| Roof and age | Built in 1979. An original roof would be about 47 years old; under Florida's 2022 reform (SB 2-D) carriers may require an inspection past 15 years, so budget for a roof report and ask for the roof permit date. |
Flood zone & elevation
Sourced environmental data for the parcel. Confirm with FEMA and your insurer.
From the FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer. In this zone lender-required flood insurance is generally not mandated; confirm for the parcel.
Approximate parcel elevation from USGS; confirm exact elevation with a survey.
Lee County is on the Florida coast; wind coverage is a major part of the premium. Premiums and coverage vary by home (roof age, wind mitigation, claims history); obtain a quote from a licensed insurer.

Items worth confirming for 977 Winsome RD, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- Built in 1979 (47 years): ask for the roof and HVAC replacement dates — insurers commonly ask for roof age on homes this old, and it changes the premium.
- Confirm whether a mandatory HOA applies to this parcel and what it charges.
- FEMA flood zone X: flood insurance is not usually required, but get a quote anyway — FEMA reports roughly one in four flood claims come from outside high-risk zones.
- Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in Lee County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.
- Listed living area is 1,144 sq ft: verify it against the property appraiser's record and measure before relying on it.
- Order a survey to confirm lot boundaries and easements.
- Review permit history with the county.
- Property taxes: the estimate on this page (about $3,300/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $975 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+42%). Exemptions and portability change the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser.
- Confirm school zoning directly with the district.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 977 Winsome RD and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 977 Winsome RD was built in 1979 and has 1,144 sq ft of living area, 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 977 Winsome RD in?
977 Winsome RD is in Ridgeway in North Fort Myers, Lee County. Too few comparable closed sales exist nearby for this page to show local sales statistics; a licensed agent can prepare a comparative market analysis.
Why might property taxes on 977 Winsome RD differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $3,300 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $975 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+42%). Florida reassesses a home after it sells; for a homesteaded seller the Save Our Homes cap on their assessment does not transfer, and a buyer's own exemptions and portability are applied separately, so the two bills usually differ. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Is 977 Winsome RD in a flood zone?
The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone X, outside the special flood hazard area, so flood insurance is not usually required by a lender. It is still available and worth quoting; confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer.
Can I rely on the figures on this page?
No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.

Estimate methodology. Tax estimates apply county millage to the list price (less the homestead exemption where the parcel is matched to the certified roll) and will differ from the actual assessed bill.
