12546 Grandezza Cir Estero, Florida

This courtyard pool home was acquired as a distressed foreclosure requiring significant repair and repositioning. Through a disciplined, value-driven renovation strategy, the property was Transform Real Estate Luxury Transformed into a high-end residence designed to command strong buyer demand and premium resale value.

The existing exotic hardwood floors, which were heavily damaged at acquisition, were fully restored and re-stained, ultimately becoming a defining feature of the home. Capital improvements were prioritized where they would create the greatest impact on resale, including new granite countertops throughout the property, with a leather-brushed finish selected for the kitchen to elevate both durability and buyer appeal.

Architectural upgrades played a central role in the repositioning. Crown molding and 5” baseboards were installed throughout, a custom coffered ceiling with integrated LED lighting was introduced in the living room, and custom wood-cased slider headers were added to strengthen visual flow. The dining room was enhanced with a custom wainscoting treatment, increasing perceived value and reinforcing a cohesive luxury finish.

All three bathrooms were fully redesigned with modern, market-forward finishes selected to align with current buyer expectations. Several new design elements were intentionally tested on this project, and the market response exceeded expectations validating both the renovation strategy and execution.

This flip demonstrates how distressed assets, when paired with disciplined capital allocation and intentional design, can be repositioned into standout properties that deliver strong resale outcomes.
