Set on a private acre with sweeping views of the Gulf of Mexico, the home offers direct beach access via a private dune walkover inviting daily shelling, tranquil morning walks, and breathtaking sunsets just steps from your lanai. Wake each morning in the primary suite to expansive beach views, where the sound of waves and soft sea breezes create a true sense of retreat. Designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living, the spacious living and dining areas flow seamlessly to a grand screened lanai.

Inside, vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings with exposed beams create warmth and architectural character, complemented by a calm, neutral palette, elegant, tiled baths, and a well-appointed kitchen with granite surfaces and premium appliances. Karastan luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout the home, while the lanai and surrounding balconies feature rich cedar decking echoed by the home’s classic cedar board-and-batten exterior. Arrive along a graceful circular drive framed by lush native landscaping, where swaying palms and coastal foliage create a serene, welcoming approach. A natural shoreline berm enhances both privacy and protection, lending a sense of seclusion and retreat. Below, the ground level offers generous parking, garage access, and a private elevator providing a seamless transition to the elevated living spaces above, where Gulf views and coastal breezes await. Elevated construction, a new standing seam metal roof, and extensive updates provide lasting resilience and peace of mind. Surrounded by tropical plantings and set along one of Sanibel’s most coveted stretches of coastline, this is Old Florida living as it was meant to be refined, relaxed, and deeply connected to the Gulf.
