Behind a private gate on the desired east end of Sanibel Island lies a rare coastal sanctuary, an intimate enclave of classic Old Florida style homes set directly along the island’s famed sugar sand shoreline. As you pass through the gates, a sense of quiet exclusivity settles in. Lush, meticulously manicured tropical vegetation frames a winding brick paver drive, guiding you toward the Gulf and the extraordinary residence waiting at water’s edge. From the moment you go inside, the home reveals its masterpiece: uninterrupted, panoramic views of the Gulf that stretch endlessly across the horizon. Sunlight pours through impact-rated windows and doors, illuminating interiors that have been thoughtfully and beautifully remodeled to blend timeless coastal architecture with refined modern luxury. Designed for intimate relaxation and effortless entertaining, the home offers five full bedrooms and an array of inviting gathering spaces, each oriented to capture the ever-changing seascape. Expansive beachfront lanais and a private pool and spa blur the line between indoors and out, creating front-row seats to painted sunsets, gentle sea breezes and soothing rhythm of the waves. At the heart of the home, the open kitchen has been masterfully reimagined for beauty and function where sleek stainless steel appliances and elegant custom cabinetry provide a chef-worthy backdrop. The former laundry area has been transformed into a sun-drenched breakfast nook, an inspired touch that enhances flow and fills the space with natural light, making everyday moments feel extraordinary. The main living room exudes warmth and character, highlighted by richly textured ceilings, a welcoming fireplace and sweeping Gulf views that make the ocean part of the décor. Just beyond, a distinctive den offers a perspective few properties can claim, panoramic vistas not only across the Gulf, but stretching down the western coastline of Florida, delivering a sense of scale and serenity that is simply unforgettable. The primary suite is a private retreat unto itself, generously sized to include a sitting area or office space, all oriented toward those same mesmerizing water views. Wake each morning to the soft glow of sunrise on the water and fall asleep to the rhythmic sound of waves along the shore. Above it all, a dramatic third-floor open lanai provides yet another breathtaking vantage point. Beyond its beauty, the home offers a private elevator and lasting peace of mind with impact-rated windows and doors throughout, strength paired with elegance, all framing what are undeniably among the spectacular views on the island.

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.
