Luxury Waterfront Living with Direct Canal Access on Sanibel Island
Experience refined island living in this beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath waterfront home with office and canal-view lounge, ideally situated on a quiet, no-through street in one of Sanibel’s most peaceful neighborhoods. Positioned on one of the widest canals on the island, this property offers direct, no-bridge boating access with sweeping down-canal views toward Pine Island, framed by mangroves and abundant wildlife.
The open, light-filled floor plan is designed to maximize water views from nearly every window. The office and adjoining canal-view lounge create a tranquil space for work or relaxation overlooking the canal, while the main living areas flow effortlessly for both everyday living and entertaining.
The chef-inspired kitchen has been thoughtfully upgraded with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a wine chiller, large LG French-door refrigerator, convection double ovens, Wolf induction cooktop, designer Zephyr ventilation hood, and Whirlpool dishwasher—blending high-end performance with modern coastal elegance.
Recent upgrades include impact-rated windows, sliders, and doors, luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, recessed lighting, updated ceiling fans, and a well-appointed laundry room with counter and utility sink. The exterior has been refreshed with new soffit, fascia, downspouts, siding, irrigation, and beautifully maintained gardens that enhance both curb appeal and privacy.
Outdoor living is exceptional, featuring an oversized pool with no-see-um screened cage, pressure-treated marine-grade decking with PolyRail vinyl railing, and a 30-foot dock complete with water, electric, and 10,000-lb boat lift—all with direct canal access and no bridges to the bay.
Additional highlights include a 2017 roof, Trane A/C system, oversized garage with recessed doors and full-chip polyurethane floor coating, extended storage room off the pool area, bonus storage under the stairs, and excellent spacing between neighbors for enhanced privacy.
Centrally located with easy on-and-off island access, walking distance to the bay, and surrounded by nature, this home offers a rare combination of luxury, tranquility, and premier boating access—an exceptional opportunity to own a fully updated waterfront retreat on Sanibel Island.
