This stunning elevated island home offers the very best of coastal living, featuring a private heated pool with a dramatic two-story screened enclosure and breathtaking water views paired with unforgettable sunsets—all just minutes from the beach. Inside, a bright open-concept layout creates a spacious and inviting atmosphere. The main living area flows seamlessly onto an expansive screened lanai, effortlessly blending indoor and outdoor living while maximizing both space and comfort. Nearly every room showcases picturesque waterfront views and the surrounding natural beauty. Deeded beach access is just a short 5-minute walk at the end of the street, making it easy to enjoy Sanibel’s renowned shoreline. The property also features multiple screened decks, frequent wildlife sightings, and the rare opportunity to take in spectacular sunsets over one preserve and equally stunning sunrises over another. Extensively updated and meticulously maintained, the home includes a newer roof along with recent upgrades such as HVAC, water heater, garage doors, pool cage, luxury vinyl plank flooring, impact windows, interior doors, and composite exterior stair treads. Ideally located, you’re just moments from local favorites like Rosalita’s Cantina and the soon-to-open Bailey’s Market, as well as the Sanibel Recreation Center, J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge, and miles of scenic bike paths. Impeccably cared for and move-in ready, this exceptional property captures everything that makes island living on Sanibel so special.
