About this home
Fully remodeled, custom-built, and offered fully furnished turnkey, this ultimate vacation retreat captures the rare feeling of being blissfully cast away—where a long, winding driveway lined with swaying palms gently disconnects you from the outside world. Sunsets unfold beautifully over Clam Bayou with the Gulf beyond, and direct water access makes this property exceptionally special—launch a kayak or boat from your private dock and reach one of Sanibel’s most secluded beaches in minutes, a truly rare island experience. Thoughtfully rebuilt from the ground up, the home’s architecture embodies an organic coastal modern aesthetic—entirely rebuilt to perfection and stunning inside and out—with clean, intentional lines softened by warm, natural materials inspired by the surrounding coastal environment. Designed for effortless enjoyment, the property offers incredible privacy, a spacious lot approximately 360 feet in length, and mature tropical landscaping that reinforces the feeling of an instant island getaway with simple, very low-maintenance living. The backyard sparkles as the sun reflects off the Bayou waters. Inside, soaring ceilings and abundant natural light create an airy, relaxed coastal ambiance, while exceptionally refined designer finishes reflect thoughtful craftsmanship throughout. All windows and doors are impact-rated, and a commercial-grade standing seam metal roof provides lasting durability and peace of mind. A screened porch sets the stage for sunset dining, while the back deck off the kitchen enjoys prized southwestern exposure—ideal for sunbathing, entertaining, or unwinding as the day fades. Wildlife sightings are part of everyday life, from bald eagles and ospreys overhead to endless fishing just steps from your door. Blissfully secluded yet just a short bike ride to Captiva, this is a truly rare opportunity to own a refined organic coastal retreat where architecture, nature, and island luxury exist in effortless harmony.
