A beautifully designed custom walk-in closet provides abundant storage. With four spacious bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths, the home offers exceptional flexibility for family and guests. Two primary suites provide an ideal arrangement for multigenerational living or extended stays, while generously sized guest rooms comfortably accommodate king beds. A refined guest bath with marble flooring and custom vanity, plus an elegant powder room with stone flooring, Robern vanity, and marble faucet handles, further elevate the home. Outside, the screened pool area becomes a private waterfront oasis, offering sweeping canal views and plenty of space for al fresco dining and entertaining. For the boating enthusiast, the wide, deep-water, seawalled canal provides superior access, with your boat just moments from the Bay. An Azek dock and boat lift are ready for your next adventure. Additional highlights include private deeded beach access, epoxy garage flooring, Elkay chilled bottle filler, all-new plumbing and electrical systems, 2023 HVAC, 2023 standing-seam metal roof, newer gutters, and new LVP flooring on the stairs and upper level. With easy access on and off Sanibel from its coveted east-end location, this exceptional residence delivers the rare combination of luxury, design, beach access, and outstanding boating convenience—a truly remarkable Florida waterfront lifestyle.
