Property Description
For those who dream of an island home where the water is your backyard and adventure is just a boat ride away, this private Sanibel retreat offers an exceptional setting for the boating enthusiast. Set on approximately .65 acres along a Gulf-access saltwater canal, the property is ideally positioned near the Intracoastal Waterway, Dinkins Bayou and San Carlos Bay. With a private dock and boat lift, getting out on the water is effortless—whether you're heading out for a day of fishing or cruising to some of Southwest Florida's favorite destinations, including Useppa, Cabbage Key, Upper Captiva, Boca Grande, Pine Island and Fort Myers Beach. The surrounding waters are also known for excellent game fishing. The three-bedroom, two-bath home is comfortably sized and thoughtfully laid out for relaxed island living. The open living areas provide an inviting place to gather with family and friends, while the generous homesite offers plenty of room to create your own outdoor oasis, including the potential for a pool. What truly sets this property apart is its natural and private setting. The property borders the J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge, providing an extraordinary connection to the island's native landscape and wildlife. Yellow-crowned night herons and other shorebirds are frequent visitors, while dolphins, manatees and abundant marine life can be enjoyed from the surrounding waterways. Located on a private road and within walking distance of Sanctuary Golf Club, this is a property for buyers who value privacy, nature, boating and the authentic character of island living. The house is just the beginning. The real opportunity is the land, the water and the location.
