A ONCE-IN-A-GENERATION OPPORTUNITY to own one of LaBelle’s most historically significant properties! The Caldwell Home Place offers a remarkable connection to the earliest days of LaBelle, with a history dating to at least 1897 and possibly earlier. Originally serving as a trading post and general store along the Caloosahatchee River, the building also served as LaBelle’s early post office before becoming the Caldwell family’s treasured Home Place in 1907. Today, this extraordinary Florida vernacular home remains a tangible piece of Old Florida history and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Situated on approximately 2.195 acres and comprised of THREE SEPARATE PARCELS, the property offers a combination rarely found with a historic home: the Home Place, an UNFINISHED GUEST HOUSE, and TWO ADDITIONAL BUILDABLE LOTS. The unfinished guest house provides an opportunity for a future owner to complete and customize an additional living space, while the separate buildable parcels create even greater flexibility. Preserve the property as a private residence, establish a unique family compound, or explore the possibilities offered by the additional parcels and improvements.
The home itself tells a story that simply cannot be recreated. Its raised construction, expansive porches and steep roof reflect early Florida architecture, while generations of history remain embedded throughout the property. Perhaps most remarkable is the famous porch wall where family members and visitors have recorded their names and heights since the 1920s—hundreds of handwritten marks documenting generations of life at the Home Place.
Properties can be renovated. Houses can be built. But history like this cannot be reproduced. The Caldwell Home Place represents an exceptionally rare opportunity to become the next steward of an irreplaceable piece of LaBelle history while acquiring 2.195 acres across three parcels, an unfinished guest house, and two additional buildable lots.
