Excellent historical home in the River District; magnificent period architecture. The home retains many of the original furniture and pictures of the Burroughs family

This well known social event venue was popular with the Fort Myer's elite in the turn of the 20th century. This 1901 Georgian Revival style mansion is now open for tours, weddings and private ceremonies .

Tour the most luxurious estate in Fort Myers for a taste of history, the Burroughs Home and Gardens. The home of Nelson Burroughs, this was a jewel of “Millionaire’s Row” on First Street. With a Georgian-Revival style, you’ll see bay and stained glass windows, a widow’s walk, a sweeping veranda, and dancing porch. Imagine the social events here that hosted the elite of early settlers in Fort Myers! Inside, you’ll see 11-foot high ceilings and pine flooring. A winding staircase leads down to four receiving rooms with a parlor, music room, and library. You’ll see antique furnishings and turn-of-the-century artifacts like sleigh beds and original dining room set. Outside in the gardens, admire the free-standing fountain and the first grotto built in Fort Myers fed by an artesian well. Tour the servants’ quarters with an electric bell system. There’s also a secret garden with elephant ears, birds of paradise, bougainvillea, and a reflecting pool.
