About this home
Welcome to 5706 Sanibel Captiva Road—arguably the best-priced waterfront property on Sanibel Island and one of the most substantial boating opportunities available across Sanibel and Captiva. Set on a commanding 1.39 acres with more than 300 feet of direct deep-water frontage, this is not merely waterfront property—it is front-row access to the intracoastal playground of Pine Island Sound and the open turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
The West End location offers an increasingly rare combination of privacy, acreage, boating access, and convenience. The property is just minutes by bicycle from the island’s renowned beaches, Blind Pass, and the historic Santiva enclave. A quick trip brings you to Captiva Island for waterfront dining, boutique shopping, and legendary destinations such as The Mucky Duck, The Green Flash, and the iconic Captiva Island Store.
Build here and position your future home for sweeping views toward the Gulf over Silver Key and sunsets that require no filter. Mangrove-lined shoreline, protected bayou waters, exceptional wildlife, and direct boating access create the kind of setting people spend years trying to find. The water here is not simply decorative—it is alive. Manatees cruise past the shoreline, dolphins regularly put on a show, and Snook, Redfish, Snapper, and Sheepshead make the surrounding waters a year-round fishery. Overhead, Osprey and Bald Eagles patrol the sky. It is nature’s highway, and this property gives you one of the best seats on it.
A property survey, marine survey, engineering study, and architectural plans for a custom approximately 3,000-square-foot elevated coastal residence, boat dock, and lift have already been completed and are transferable, representing a substantial savings of time and money already absorbed by the current owner. Simply put, buyers seeking the strongest waterfront value currently available on Sanibel should put this property at the top of their list.
This is not just another vacant lot. It is a launch point for early-morning fishing runs, sunset cruises, tarpon seasons, island weekends, and a lifetime on the water. For the buyer who views boating not merely as a hobby but as a way of life, this is home port....
