About This Home

As of May 2016

A dramatic entry through beautifully stained 8ft. wood & beveled glass French doors greets warmly to a vestibule featuring vaulted ceilings and angling to a bright elongated octagon dining room with palladium windows. Both the open kitchen and great room also have cathedral ceilings and diagonal white tile. The large kitchen area has granite counters, an Island with breakfast bar, as well as, a casual dining alcove and huge pantry. This wonderful Dunes pool home has a truly great floor plan offering the optimal Sanibel lifestyle with single level living. The four bedrooms are split in three areas; a private master suite with direct access to the pool lanai area; two bedrooms and a bath at the front of the home and a bedroom and bath suite that also has direct pool lanai access. There is a large covered lanai and private sunny Southern exposure pool. The home and pool are semi-raised with Stem wall foundation – solid!
