home Property Description

Birder’s Paradise on Sanibel Island!
Located at the serene corner of Casa Ybel Road and Middle Gulf Drive, this spectacularly reimagined home is nestled on nearly an acre and backs up to the lush Sanibel River Fresh Water System—a haven for native birds and a dream come true for birdwatchers and nature lovers. This beautifully renovated property offers privacy, tranquility, and luxurious modern living in one of Sanibel’s most desirable locations. Boasting over 2,200 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed living space, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home features a spacious open-concept layout that invites natural light and effortless indoor-outdoor living. The centerpiece of the home is the gourmet chef’s kitchen, complete with a stunning 10-foot island that includes built-in refrigerator drawers, and a separate ice maker. Custom cabinetry throughout provides ample storage and a cleverly designed appliance garage to keep countertops pristine and clutter-free. Step into the main living area, where cathedral ceilings and high-gloss 32 x 32 tile flooring elevate the home's style. The enclosed lanai offers a front-row seat to nature, perfect for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or evening relaxation. Recent renovations include new impact-rated windows and doors, HVAC systems, tankless hot water heater, Hardie Board siding, and a newly constructed exterior staircase—all offering peace of mind and energy efficiency. And for added ease, a brand-new elevator gives effortless access to both levels, making the home fully accessible and convenient for all lifestyles. The primary suite is a tranquil retreat, complete with a luxurious en-suite bath featuring sleek finishes, a walk-in shower, and even a heated towel warmer—a small but indulgent touch you’ll never want to live without. Step outside to your private outdoor oasis. The newly added heated saltwater lap pool invites you to swim, exercise, or simply soak up the Florida sunshine. Surrounding it all is a two-story screened lanai, offering the perfect setting for al fresco dining, lounging, or entertaining. The ground level includes a 2-car garage, abundant storage, and plenty of room for bikes, beach toys, kayaks, or your next DIY project. The property has been professionally landscaped, blending native plants with tropical flair for a welcoming, low-maintenance environment. Just a short walk or bike ride to the beach, this location offers the best of island living—quiet and secluded, yet close to everything Sanibel has to offer, including world-class shelling, biking trails, boutique shopping, and fine dining. Whether you're looking for your forever home, a seasonal escape, or a savvy investment opportunity, this extraordinary property has its natural beauty, thoughtful upgrades, and unbeatable location. Don’t let this rare gem fly away, schedule your private showing today and start living the island lifestyle you’ve always dreamed of!
