Olde Naples homes and condos are perfectly located in the epicenter of Naples life. “Olde Naples” is often loosely defined but primarily includes all real estate from Golf Drive (at the north end) down to 14th Ave South that is west of US 41 or the Tamiami Trail. It also encompasses the property south of 41 (as it turns west to Miami) and west of the Gordon River where Tin City and the Riverwalk restaurant are located.
Fifth Ave in Olde Naples
Naples real estate to the south of 14th Ave South includes the subdivisions of Aqualane Shores and Port Royal. These areas are not Olde Naples. They were man-made in the 1950′s and are therefore not “olde” by Naples standards.
Old Naples is a charming combination of old beach cottages (some dating back to the early 20th century) and new luxury homes situated peacefully among hundreds of tall coconut palms bent and twisted by the winds and weather.
One of he main draws is the proximity to the beautiful white sand beaches Naples is famous for. Almost every avenue, from Golf Drive to 14th Avenue ends at the beachfront. There is public parking and exclusive beach parking for local residents. Each avenue is unique, some with park benches are favorite spots for locals to watch the amazing Naples sunsets.
This charming Gulf Coast city is beyond compare. Neapolitan architecture is at the heart of the casual yet sophisticated lifestyle. A walk down the coconut palm lined streets of 3rd Street or 5th Avenue South will give you a taste of the Naples way of life. Boutique shopping, art galleries and sidewalk cafés abound.
Current Olde Naples real estate prices vary greatly. On the low end of Naples properties, a small one-bedroom condo can sell in the low $100’s and, at the upper end, a home directly on the beach with waterfront views of the Gulf of Mexico, for over $6 million. In between are Naples FL homes and condos for everyone.
