About this home
Whimsical Island Living in St. James City! Dive into your own paradise with a brand-new custom pool—complete with a sun shelf, LED bubblers, glow lighting, and a saltwater system. Add direct Gulf access and an 8K boat lift with canopy and composite captain’s walk dock, and adventure by water is just minutes away. From your dock, it’s a quick ride to the open bayfront and the sandy beaches of Sanibel, Captiva, Cayo Costa, and Boca Grande, along with the world-famous fishing grounds of Pine Island Sound. Fresh landscaping enhances the tropical curb appeal, while inside, vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light create an airy, open feeling. Despite its cozy island footprint, each bedroom easily fits a king-size bed, offering a comfortable and well-designed layout. The 2024 remodeled kitchen shines with quartz countertops, white raised-panel cabinets, a center island, and stainless-steel appliances. Sliders from the great room open to a spacious screened lanai, while an open-air balcony off the kitchen is perfect for morning coffee or sunset cocktails. The primary suite is a private retreat with lanai access, two closets (including a walk-in), and a spa-like bath. Guests enjoy their own wing with a pocket slider for added privacy. Nearly every room whispers water views, reminding you that the Gulf is never far. On the lower level, a second screened lanai, shaded gathering space, and two flexible storage rooms offer room to expand—perfect for an outdoor kitchen, game area, workshop, or guest hideaway. There’s also covered parking below with plenty of space for your golf cart—essential for exploring the golf cart–friendly streets of St. James City. With updates including a new roof (2023), Pergo flooring, and reinforced seawall, this home combines peace of mind with the ultimate in waterfront fun. From sun-up to sun-down, this home blends updates, whimsy, and island charm—a tropical retreat made for living.
