1 Bed Waterfront Home for Sale in Captiva
5132 Bayside Villas, Captiva, FL, 33924
About this home
At 5132 Bayside Villas, each day is written in light, water, and breeze. Dawn begins on the lanai, where Pine Island Sound awakens with color—sunrise glows across the horizon, pelicans skim the waves, and fishing boats slip toward open water. The bay becomes your backdrop, alive with sails, seabirds, and the shifting palette of the sky. The villa itself balances coastal charm with modern ease. A 1BD/2BA first-floor retreat, it offers granite counters, stainless appliances, crisp cabinetry, wide-plank tile flooring, and crown molding. The living spaces flow naturally to the lanai, where the outdoors remains the centerpiece. The primary suite offers a calm retreat, while a second bath mirrors the same fresh finishes. Yet what makes this villa extraordinary is not just the design—it’s the rhythm of Captiva life outside its doors. Within minutes, you can sink your feet into the Gulf sands, celebrated for their shells and sunlit shallows. Island pathways invite golf cart rides and bike cruises into Captiva Village, where the hum of music, dining, and laughter sets a different tempo. Afternoons bring choices: a swim in the bayside pool, a paddle through calm waters where dolphins are frequent companions, or a wander through palm-lined trails. As the day winds down, the stage shifts once more. Perhaps you’ll gather with neighbors for cocktails while the boats return across the channel or cross the island to witness sunset blaze into the Gulf. And when evening deepens, stars scatter above the mangroves, promising another sunrise to come. With amenities like under-building parking, private storage, and a bayside pool and spa, 5132 Bayside Villas offers not just a home but an island way of life—measured in sunrises, sails, and timeless Captiva moments.
