This is the kind of property that reminds you of why you moved to the island. Tucked away at the end of a quiet sandy road, this exceptional waterfront retreat sits on Dinkin’s Bayou and delivers the full Sanibel boating lifestyle. Nearly 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space is surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, creating privacy, serenity, and nonstop water views. The main living level is bright, open, and designed to capture the bayou at every turn. Walls of glass frame the water, while engineered hardwood floors and clean coastal finishes keep the space airy and inviting. The living, dining, and kitchen areas flow seamlessly together and open directly to the expansive screened lanai, where the heated pool overlooks the bayou. Sunrise coffee and sunset cocktails are both non-negotiable here. The kitchen is efficient and stylish with ample cabinetry, stainless appliances, and easy sightlines to the water and living areas. Entertaining feels effortless and everyday living feels relaxed. The primary suite is a true retreat with peaceful water views, a custom walk-in closet, and a well-appointed bath. Additional guest bedrooms are thoughtfully placed to provide privacy and flexibility, including space that works beautifully for visiting family or extended stays. A private elevator connects all levels, because carrying groceries upstairs is overrated. A dedicated office provides a quiet workspace when duty calls, and generous storage areas throughout the home keep everything organized and out of sight. Outside is where this property truly flexes. Two private docks with electric and water, a 10,000-pound boat lift, and a 7,000-pound boat lift provide quick Gulf access and room for multiple water toys. Wildlife sightings are part of the daily routine, and the bayou setting delivers calm waters with big island character. This is not just a home. It is a front row seat to the Sanibel lifestyle. Quiet, coastal, and unapologetically waterfront.
