Description

Own your own private oasis in this rare island coastal retreat, elevated on a high natural ridge and offering exceptional privacy, serenity, and luxury. This stunning family compound includes a beautifully updated main residence and a separate guest house—ideal for hosting family and friends while maintaining privacy. Designed with refined coastal décor, the home features vaulted ceilings and Legno Bastone wide-plank European white oak hardwood flooring throughout. The chef-inspired kitchen is a showpiece, complete with Carrera white marble countertops, premium new appliances, polished nickel Brizo hardware, and thoughtful luxury finishes. Spa-like marble showers enhance the resort-style feel, while a newly installed standing-seam metal roof adds durability and peace of mind. A spacious two-car garage offers ample storage and showcases a workshop area with sleek epoxy floors—perfect for hobbies, storage, or additional utility. Set on a secluded oversized lot, the property unfolds as a botanical sanctuary with professionally landscaped grounds, winding garden pathways, and multiple outdoor living spaces. An outdoor fireplace invites relaxed evenings, while the expansive grounds provide ample room for a future pool, further enhancing the private resort atmosphere. Ideally located just a short bike ride to Bowman’s Beach and the adjacent nature preserve, and conveniently near the Sanibel Recreation Center, fitness facilities, and island dining, this home delivers both tranquility and accessibility. Previously featured on HGTV’s Island Living prior to renovation, the residence now reflects a dramatic and elegant transformation. An appraisal completed at $1.6M confirms exceptional value, offered at $1.495M—a rare opportunity to secure a luxury island compound that blends coastal elegance, privacy, and lifestyle.
