5 Crazy Things People Have Built on Cape Coral Triple Lots

TL;DR: A Cape Coral triple lot isn’t just “extra dirt.” It’s a lifestyle upgrade that lets you dream bigger. From tiki hut resorts to boat barns fit for yachts, homeowners here have turned big parcels into legendary playgrounds.


What Makes a Triple Lot Special?

In Cape Coral, a standard residential lot is 80×125 feet. But when you stitch three together, you get a triple lot — a massive chunk of land with space to spread out. Builders love the flexibility. Buyers love the freedom. And creative homeowners? Well, they’ve taken it to a whole other level.

(PS: If you’re new to the local market, check out my Cape Coral Market Guide for the full scoop on neighborhoods, trends, and waterfront living.)


1. Backyard Tiki Bars That Rival Margaritaville

Why settle for a patio umbrella when you can build a full-on tiki hut village? Some triple lot owners have transformed their yards into private resorts, complete with thatched roofs, palapa-style bars, neon signs, and fire pits that make you wonder if you just walked into a Caribbean beach club.

2. Pickleball Courts at Home (Because HOA Rules Don’t Apply)

Pickleball is practically Florida’s official pastime. With a triple lot, you don’t have to wait in line at the park. Homeowners have built private pickleball courts — often with lights, fences, and lounge seating for spectators. Some even combine it with a pool and hot tub for the ultimate post-match cool-down.

3. Mega Boat Barns (Because a 20-Footer Just Won’t Cut It)

Cape Coral = boating paradise. And when you’ve got room to spare, you build big. Triple lot properties sometimes feature boat barns large enough to store 40-foot center consoles. Inside, many are tricked out with flatscreens, beer fridges, fish mounts, and man-cave vibes. It’s basically a garage on steroids — but for your boat.

4. RV Pads That Feel Like Resorts

Why park the RV in a storage yard when you can build a dedicated pad right at home? Triple lot owners often pour massive driveways with full hookups — water, sewer, and electric — alongside tiki lights, grills, and firepits. It’s not just a parking space; it’s a mini RV resort in your own backyard.

5. Pools So Big They Get Their Own Zip Code

Some people build pools. Triple lot people build aquatic theme parks. We’re talking lazy rivers that loop around the house, oversized infinity edges overlooking canals, and hot tubs that could host an HOA meeting (please don’t invite them, though). With the space of a triple lot, pool builders get as creative as you’ll let them.

Why Cape Coral Triple Lots Matter

All jokes aside, these oversized parcels are more than just playgrounds:

  • Builders love them because they allow for custom designs without crowding.

  • Buyers love them because they offer room for boats, RVs, hobbies, or just more elbow room.

  • Investors love them because land is finite, and demand for lifestyle properties keeps climbing — especially now that Cape Coral’s canals are lock-free since 2025.


FAQs About Cape Coral Triple Lots

Q: How big is a triple lot in Cape Coral?
A: Typically three single parcels combined. That’s about 120 feet wide — a huge footprint compared to a standard lot.

Q: Are triple lots good investments?
A: Yes. Larger parcels are rarer, and builders often seek them out for custom homes. They usually hold value better than standard lots.

Q: Can I build whatever I want on a triple lot?
A: Within zoning rules, yes. You can add detached garages, RV pads, big pools, and accessory structures that might not fit on a standard lot. Always check with the city first.

Q: Do triple lots cost more to maintain?
A: Slightly, since you’ll mow more grass or maintain bigger landscaping. But many homeowners trade grass for pavers, pools, or driveways.

Q: Where are most triple lots located?
A: They’re scattered across Cape Coral, but you’ll find many in the NW Cape, where newer development favors bigger parcels.
