Step inside to soaring ceilings and large windows that fill the open concept living area with natural light and sweeping views. The updated kitchen seamlessly flows into the living and dining spaces providing form and function, and recessed sliders open to a large wraparound lanai, blending indoors and out and creating a postcard worthy setting for sunsets and entertaining. Fresh finishes and bright interiors maintain the home’s classic Sanibel charm while offering a clean, modern feel. The flexible layout and desirable split floorplan adapts to your lifestyle—set up a remote workspace with river and golf course views, welcome friends and family to paradise comfortably, or just settle into the relaxed rhythm of island life with plenty of space to stretch your legs and recharge your batteries after a successful sunrise shelling expedition. A new roof, impact windows, and Hardie board siding bring added peace of mind, while the enclosed lower level provides space for storage, hobbies, or expanded outdoor living. Step outside and enjoy the huge heated pool with a two-story screen enclosure, set within a professionally landscaped yard designed for privacy and year-round enjoyment. With private deeded beach access and vehicle parking, scenic water views, close proximity to the islands best shopping and dining, resort amenities across the street, easy access to the Sanibel Causeway, and the island’s famed shared-use path right out front, this home truly delivers the full package—an inviting beach retreat, a strong rental contender, or a comfortable full-time residence.
