Enjoy incredible sunsets from this beautiful location overlooking the Sanibel River. Conservation land to the west and east surrounds this home with the flora and fauna that make Sanibel such an incredible place to live. Originally designed as a three bedroom, two bath home with an enclosed sun room, open kitchen, and expansive living area there is plenty of space to create the home of your dreams. The tile floors did well through the storm but under the tile is gorgeous terrazzo, now exposed in the kitchen. This western exposure home has a huge waterfront backyard that creates a fabulous setting for the pool, spa, deck, gardens and lawn. Where a gazebo once stood, a stone patio now creates a perfect place to sit by the river and enjoy the view! Deeded beach access is less than a half mile directly at the end of the street and Sanibel's bike paths are under 1/2 mile in either direction. This is an incredible opportunity to create an island home that takes advantage of all that Sanibel living has to offer.

Spectacular sunsets, mystical sunrises, and an idyllic waterfront location make this an absolutely incredible property. Located along the eastern shore of the Sanibel River, the charming gazebo sets the stage for the park- like setting, providing an ideal outpost for relaxing or entertaining while the heated salt-water pool and spa and the spacious sun deck create the ultimate outdoor living experience. Inside, the teak parquet and tile floors, bathrooms, and well- designed kitchen have been beautifully renovated. The spectacular master bedroom features high ceilings, a gorgeous etched transom window, double custom closets, and fabulous views of the back yard. Deeded beach access is less than ½ mile down the road. An outdoor shower and covered work area provide every convenience, particularly after a day at the beach or in the garden. Enjoy ground level living that opens to the screened lanai, perfect for taking full advantage of this amazing Sanibel location.
