Lehigh Acres

If you are looking for a little bit of country in a city, look no further. Lehigh Acres lies just east of Ft. Myers, and until the 1950s remained populated with large farms and cattle ranches. In 1951, Lee Ratner purchased about 100 square miles of what is known today as Lehigh Acres and platted the area into quarter-acre and half-acre lots. There are miles of freshwater canals to kayak or canoe and loads of hiking and biking trails to explore. Lehigh offers something to suit almost any lifestyle. Lehigh’s location just east of I-75 makes it a convenient and short drive to Ft. Myers and Cape Coral, and in about 30 minutes you can be walking, boating, sunning, or watching our incredible sunsets on one of the finest gulf beaches in Southwest Florida.

There are thousands of very affordable vacant lots in Lehigh Acres. DMI Home Builders, along with our lot experts, are ready to help you locate the perfect spot on which to build your new DMI home.
