Notes: |
The Adam’s Mound Estate is composed of THREE RESIDENCES on 7+ acres in the ancient Calusa<br />
mound area of Pineland. The estate has two separate addresses (13841 and 13845 Robert<br />
Road). Scattered around the 7+ acres are various tropical plants: many varieties of palms and<br />
mangoes, sapodilla, ylang-ylang, papaya, carambola, avocado, sugar cane, bananas, passion<br />
fruit, dragon fruit, and various citrus varieties. There is a cypress slough, pond, artesian well,<br />
large brick patio area, and animal pen and fenced pasture which currently houses five goats<br />
and fourteen chickens.<br />
The two residences located at the 13841 Robert Road address are the main house and a guest<br />
cottage. The mound where these two structures are located is rumored to have been molded<br />
by Frank Adams in 1910 by pushing two mounds together. Frank Adams was in the coal mining<br />
business in the Midwest. He finished the main part of the two story house in 1911. The house<br />
is located on what is possibly the highest land point in Lee County.<br />
The main house is two stories with three bedrooms, a laundry room with washer and dryer, and<br />
a bathroom with separate shower and bathtub on the second floor. On the first floor is an open<br />
kitchen/ dining room, living room, office/bedroom, entry area with lots of shelving, bathroom<br />
with tub, and sunroom/bedroom.<br />
The upper cottage at 13841 Robert Road is a one bedroom split level residence. The bathroom<br />
has a tub with shower. The cottage is two rooms. Besides the lower level (3 steps down)<br />
bedroom, the other large room contains the kitchen with stove, refrigerator, sink and a living/<br />
dining area. The cottage has a deck on both sides.<br />
The lower cottage at the 13845 Robert Road address has two bedrooms, a large living room<br />
with jalousie windows on three sides of the room, a dining/kitchen area and a storage room. A<br />
two car garage, a laundry room, and a room with a separate entrance currently used as a<br />
business showroom, are attached to the lower cottage residence.<br />
