About this home
Birder’s Paradise on Sanibel Island!
Nestled at the tranquil corner of Casa Ybel Road and Middle Gulf Drive, this spectacularly reimagined Sanibel sanctuary rests on nearly an acre bordering the lush Sanibel River Fresh Water System—a true haven for native birds and nature lovers alike. Offering privacy, serenity, and luxurious modern comfort, this property captures the very best of island living.
Meticulously reimagined with today’s lifestyle in mind, this 3-bedroom, 3-bath residence offers over 2,200 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed living space. The open-concept floor plan welcomes abundant natural light and creates an effortless connection between indoor and outdoor living areas.
At the heart of the home, the gourmet chef’s kitchen shines with a stunning 10-foot island featuring built-in refrigerator drawers and a separate ice maker. Stainless steel appliances include an induction cooktop and convection oven. Custom cabinetry provides abundant storage, including a cleverly designed appliance garage that keeps countertops pristine and clutter-free.
The main living area showcases cathedral ceilings and gleaming 32" × 32" high-gloss tile flooring, setting a modern yet inviting tone. An enclosed lanai overlooks the surrounding preserve—a front-row seat to island wildlife, ideal for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or peaceful evenings surrounded by nature.
This fully reimagined home has been transformed inside and out, blending contemporary design with superior craftsmanship and practical efficiency. Recent upgrades include impact-rated windows and doors, new HVAC systems, a tankless water heater, Hardie Board siding, and a newly built exterior staircase. A brand-new elevator adds ease and accessibility to every level.
The primary suite serves as a private retreat, featuring a spa-inspired en-suite bath with sleek finishes, a walk-in shower, and a heated towel warmer—an indulgent touch that elevates everyday living.
Outside, your private oasis awaits. The newly added heated saltwater lap pool invites you to swim, exercise, or simply bask in the Florida sunshine. A two-story screened lanai surrounds the pool, creating the perfect setting for al fresco dining, lounging, and entertaining.
The ground level offers a 2-car garage, generous storage, and ample space for bikes, kayaks, and beach gear. Professionally designed landscaping blends native plants with tropical flair, creating a welcoming, low-maintenance environment.
Located just a short 10-minute stroll or four-minute bike ride to the beach, this home strikes the perfect balance between peaceful seclusion and proximity to Sanibel’s best shelling beaches, scenic bike trails, boutique shops, and fine dining—with convenient access to the causeway for easy off-island trips.
Whether you’re seeking your forever home, a seasonal retreat, or a savvy investment, this extraordinary property stands out for its natural beauty, thoughtful upgrades, and unbeatable location....
