Located just minutes from the Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, your private composite wood boat dock with 7.5lb lift sets the stage for unforgettable days on the water - whether you're boating, fishing, shelling, or simply soaking in the serene beauty of Sanibel. Just steps from the beach, you can hear the waves from your front door, while your back deck offers front-row seats to Florida's incredible wildlife - dolphins, manatees, nesting birds, and more. Perfectly positioned to capture breathtaking sunrise and sunset views, this home invites you to live in harmony with nature. Inside, you'll find a meticulously maintained and thoughtfully designed layout featuring soaring ceilings, plank tile flooring throughout, and abundant natural light. The spacious kitchen is a chef's dream - complete with modern finishes, generous counter space, and a welcoming flow for entertaining. The primary suite is a luxurious sanctuary with ample closet space, a separate soaking tub, a custom glass walk-in shower, and gorgeous quartz countertops embedded with sea shells - a true coastal touch. Each of the three bedrooms includes walk-in closets for plenty of storage, while the den offers versatility as an office, gym, or easily a fourth bedroom. A 2-car attached garage provides plenty of space for vehicles and toys, and an expansive lower-level storage/workshop area is ideal for hobbies or stowing all your gear. Built solid with concrete construction and a newer metal tile roof (2022), this home is designed to weather the elements with ease. The seller has already paid for premium Marvin Coastline impact windows and doors, scheduled for professional installation by Sanibel Glass on December 15th - delivering peace of mind and added value. Located on Sanibel's desirable west end, where "island time" begins, you're steps from the beach, close to over 26 miles of bike paths, and just minutes from the restaurants and shops of Captiva Island. This is more than a home - it's a lifestyle. Experience the very best of island living today.
