About This Home

As of April 2025

Bird Lane is one of the most coveted bayfront locations on all of Sanibel Island, offering a unique sandy beach shoreline along San Carlos Bay. Tucked conveniently off of Bailey Road in a private enclave only known to a lucky few, these generational properties rarely if ever trade hands publicly. This gorgeous bayfront home was designed to capture and compliment the idyllic surroundings opening to panoramic vistas of tropical islands dotting waters teeming with dolphins and birds. Two story ceilings in the expansive great room direct you to the wall of impact doors framing the breathtaking views leading you to the large lanai with outdoor kitchen. The open kitchen is perfect for the epicurean and entertainers alike where form and function perfectly intertwine. Designed to embody the ambiance of Sanibel’s historic Thistle Lodge, the dining room has vistas and elegance to rival top restaurants in some exotic locale; the space is elegant yet inviting with a wall of windows each capturing their own snapshot of the bay lapping on the sand of your private shore. Lounge alongside your pool, fish from your shore, or slide your kayak into the bay waters, this is where happiness begins.
