The balcony off the bedroom faces the sunset.

Walk in and the ceilings do the work. They soar, the windows are tall, and the light gets everywhere. The main floor is an open great room with a dining area beside it and a kitchen that opens to both, with stainless appliances, real counter space and a breakfast bar. Sliders take you out to a screened lanai, which is where you will end up with your coffee.

Upstairs the primary bedroom has its own balcony through an arched opening. The rear of the building faces southwest, so that balcony gets the evening sky. The primary bath has dual sinks, a soaking tub and a separate walk-in shower. The second bedroom and full bath sit on the other side of the hall, and there is a half bath downstairs for guests.

It is sold furnished, so you can close and move in with a suitcase. The washer and dryer are in the unit, not down a hallway. Parking is two assigned spaces, one of them a covered carport, with guest spaces close by.

A stair chair lift is already installed between the floors. If you need it, it is here and it works. If you do not, it comes out. The air conditioner is new in 2026 and the water heater went in in 2023, so the two things that usually go wrong first have already been handled.

Why the taxes on your bill will not match theirs

The sellers paid $1,107 in 2025. You will not. They carry both a homestead and a senior exemption, which brought their taxable value down to about $21,000 against a market value of $176,170. Those exemptions do not transfer, and Florida reassesses a property when it sells.

At a $159,000 purchase and the 2025 combined rate of 11.5360 mills, plan on roughly $1,550 a year if you homestead it, or $2,000 a year if you do not. Both figures include the Lehigh Acres fire and street lighting assessment that rides inside the tax bill. Confirm your own number with the Lee County Property Appraiser before you close.

What the $643 condo fee actually buys

It is a real number and it deserves a real answer. The fee covers the building insurance, the roof and the exterior, lawn and landscape care, irrigation water, exterior pest control, the pool and spa, the clubhouse and courts, street lights, street maintenance, trash removal, legal and accounting, and the reserve fund.

Two-story units like this one pay $643. The single-level flats in the community pay less, because the fee is split by square footage. There is no special assessment on the books, no transfer fee, and a one-time $100 application fee at purchase. The 2025 budget, the reserve study and the association's insurance program are all posted below. Read them.

Talk to somebody who does this for a living

We are real estate agents, not insurance agents. What we can do is hand you to one of the insurance people we already work with, with everything about this unit already written down so you are not starting from scratch. No cost, no obligation, and we are not paid for the introduction.

We pass your name along and Martin picks the person who fits. Nothing here is an insurance application, and no carrier is named or implied.

Sunset Lake is small on purpose. Eighteen units in total, six two-story townhouse plans like this one and twelve single-level flats, set around a lake with a community pool, a spa, and a cabana clubhouse. There are sidewalks and street lights throughout, and the whole thing sits in central Lehigh Acres, close to shopping, restaurants, golf and parks.

In the year to April 2026 the board replaced a hurricane damaged roof on building 24, repaired or replaced two carports, repaved the entrance, replaced the spa pump, and put in a new pool heat pump with a nine year warranty. That is a working board, and their meeting minutes are posted below so you can read it yourself rather than take our word for it.

A tennis and pickleball court is on site. Be straight with yourself about it before you fall in love with the idea: the surface is worn, and resurfacing it is on the board's own project list. Call the management company and ask what the plan is if it matters to you.
