home Property Description

Tucked away in the sought after Iona community of South Fort Myers, this exceptional residence offers something rarely found — a home that feels like a peaceful retreat, thoughtfully designed to calm the senses and inspire everyday living. Just minutes from the beaches of Sanibel Island, Fort Myers Beach, and Bunche Beach, and close to shopping, dining, and premier healthcare, this property blends quiet serenity with effortless coastal access. From the moment you arrive, the home’s distinctive architecture sets it apart. Influenced by modern Zen design and coastal chalet elements, the home features soaring ceilings, warm materials, and intentional lines that create a sense of openness, balance, and flow. The dramatic cathedral window of custom impact rated glass, anchors the main living space, drawing in natural light and surrounding greenery, blurring the line between indoors and out. Inside, the atmosphere is calm, airy, and grounding — a true escape from the ordinary. Every space has been curated to feel both intentional and livable, ideal for quiet reflection or mindful entertaining. The living and dining areas invite connection while maintaining a sense of peace, making the home feel equally suited for intimate evenings or memorable get togethers. The primary suite upstairs is a sanctuary in every sense of the word, offering privacy, elevated views, and a built in meditation or reading nook perfect for unplugging. Direct access to the expansive upper deck creates a seamless extension of the retreat — ideal for morning rituals, yoga, or unwinding beneath the stars. Downstairs, two guest bedrooms provide comfort and flexibility, complemented by a stunning guest bath featuring a modern soaking tub and a private outdoor shower — a subtle nod to island living and spa inspired design. The kitchen continues the home’s clean, grounded aesthetic with quartz countertops, rich cabinetry, and new stainless steel appliances, combining function with understated elegance. Outdoors, the private, fenced backyard is a canvas for relaxation and gathering, equally suited for a peaceful garden retreat, a future pool, or evenings spent under the glow of café lights or the fire pit. Lush greenery and thoughtful spacing enhance the sense of privacy and tranquility. The remodel prioritized resilience, longevity, and comfort, with upgrades including a new roof, impact rated windows and sliders, composite decking, plank tile flooring, elevated HVAC, and refined finishes throughout — ensuring peace of mind without compromising the home’s aesthetic integrity. This is a home for those who value design, intention, and a slower rhythm, yet want to remain connected to everything that makes SW Florida such a desirable place to live. Architectural. Serene. One of a kind. A rare opportunity to own a home that doesn’t just shelter life — it enhances it.
