The Estero Island Historic Society describes it as the island's first three-story co-op apartment building when it opened in 1959, later moving to interval ownership. Today whole units also trade on the MLS, such as a two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit of about 1,055 square feet listed at $889,000. The property sits in FEMA flood zone VE. Its age makes kitchen and bathroom updates likely for many owners, and this page covers how those projects work at the Privateer. ![Privateer bathroom remodel after photo](https://remodelbycuttingedge.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Cutting-Edge-Pelican-Landing-Bathroom-After-c.webp)After · Cutting Edge bathroom remodel ## Privateer Bathroom Remodel Privateer units of around 1,000 square feet fit two bathrooms into a modest plan, and older buildings like these often have small tub-shower combinations and vanities without much storage. Owners updating here usually choose a walk-in shower with frameless glass in at least one bathroom, a vanity with drawers and a quartz top, and porcelain tile that handles sand and salt. Better ventilation and lighting matter in compact rooms, and fixtures with corrosion-resistant finishes last longer this close to the Gulf. Recessed niches, a mirrored cabinet and pocket doors help small rooms work harder without adding square footage. Ownership structure is the first question at the Privateer. If your unit is a whole-owned condominium, the association approves interior work and sets rules on hours and access. If any units remain in interval ownership, changes there may be decided by the board on behalf of all owners. The VE zone means flood-zone review under FEMA's substantial-improvement rule through the Town of Fort Myers Beach. In an older low-rise building, plumbing often runs through shared walls and slabs, so a free LiDAR scan helps us check what can move. Bathroom remodels at Privateer start from $18,500 per bath.

Owners usually want full-height cabinetry, a pantry pull-out, quartz counters with a simple backsplash, and appliances sized to fit the space, including a counter-depth refrigerator. Where the wall to the living area holds no plumbing and the association agrees, opening it adds light and room for a seating counter. Under-cabinet lighting and a vented hood finish a small kitchen properly. Light finishes and a reflective backsplash help where natural light is limited. We design from a LiDAR scan instead of a tape measure, which matters when every inch of a small kitchen counts. The scan becomes a photo-real 3D render so you can see the finished room before ordering. Cabinets are built to the scan, and countertops are templated from it, keeping work days short and reducing deliveries through shared walkways. Scheduling is coordinated with management, especially for units that rent by the week during season, and our own crews stay with the job from demolition through final punch list. Kitchen remodels at Privateer start from $27,000. ![Privateer kitchen remodel after photo](https://remodelbycuttingedge.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Cutting-Edge-Bonita-National-Kitchen-4-After-c.webp)After · Cutting Edge kitchen remodel Price Your Privateer *Kitchen.* Design your Privateer kitchen in our kitchen builder and get a starting price for a compact layout.

Owner Blane Perun worked 20 years in property management, which helps when a building has a long history and more than one form of ownership. We have earned Best of Houzz nine times and completed more than 500 Southwest Florida remodels. A free LiDAR scan and 3D render start every project, and one fixed-price contract and our own crews carry it through.
