About this home

Just moments from Sanibel's world-famous white-sand beaches, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence captures the essence of effortless island living within the deed-restricted community of Gumbo Limbo. Whether you're searching for a forever home, seasonal getaway, or investment property with exceptional rental appeal, this retreat offers the flexibility and lifestyle today's buyers seek. Bathed in natural light, the open-concept interior unfolds around a spacious great room designed for comfortable everyday living and easy entertaining. Wood-look tile flooring flows throughout the home, while the kitchen features quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry, stainless appliances, and a seamless connection to the living and dining areas. Three generously sized bedrooms and two baths provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests, while impact-rated windows and sliders offer added peace of mind. The outdoor living spaces are equally inviting. A large screened lanai overlooks the private pool, creating a resort-inspired setting for year-round enjoyment. Beyond the covered entertaining area, open-air lounging spaces, a paver patio, and a spacious fenced yard provide multiple places to relax, dine, or gather with family and friends beneath the island sunshine. Surrounded by tropical landscaping and ideally positioned within one of Sanibel's most desirable neighborhoods, residents enjoy convenient access to shopping, dining, bike paths, and the Gulf's sugar-sand shoreline. Whether spent poolside under swaying palms, exploring miles of scenic bike paths, or strolling the beach in search of seashells and sunsets, life here is defined by the easygoing rhythm that has made Sanibel Island one of Florida's most treasured coastal destinations.
