Description

Welcome to your Sanibel Island oasis! Perfectly positioned just across the street from the beach, this beautifully updated pool home offers the ideal blend of coastal charm, modern comfort, and endless possibilities. Step inside to an expansive living area with soaring cathedral ceilings, abundant natural light, and an open, airy design that captures the essence of island living. The open-concept floor plan flows seamlessly into the updated kitchen, featuring sleek countertops with bar seating, contemporary cabinetry, and updated appliances—perfect for entertaining or everyday living. The remodeled bathrooms have been thoughtfully designed with timeless finishes, while the spacious primary suite features a beautifully updated ensuite bath that creates a relaxing, spa-like retreat. Outdoor living is where this home truly shines. Enjoy your private pool surrounded by tropical landscaping, unwind on the spacious patio, or relax on the upper lanai overlooking the tranquil canal and adjacent golf course—an exceptional setting for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or simply taking in the peaceful surroundings. Recent improvements, including a new roof, new air conditioning system, updated flooring, and numerous additional upgrades, provide both beauty and peace of mind. One of the home's most exciting features is the lower level, offering a blank canvas ready for your vision. Whether you envision additional living space, a game room, fitness studio, hobby area, workshop, or customized storage, the possibilities are extensive. (Some photos of the lower level have been virtually staged to illustrate potential use.) This is more than a home—it's an opportunity to embrace the Sanibel Island lifestyle, where beaches, boating, golf, and breathtaking sunsets are all part of everyday living. Don't miss your chance to own this exceptional island retreat.
