About This Home

As of July 2021

This near beach, 3 bedroom, 3 bath pool home is just down the road to Sanibel's famous shelling & nature mecca, Bowman's Beach. With the loft den (family room) there's plenty of room for extra guests if 3 bedrooms aren't enough. In addition to the spacious fenced pool there's also a hot tub on the screened porch. This home's cathedral ceilings are of natural cedar and paired with the centered fireplace the home lives like a rustic beach house.
Recent updating includes kitchen, two bathrooms, stucco siding and impact windows. (Sliders were not upgraded.) The house was re-piped recently by Aztec Plumbing. There's plenty of parking & storage under the home with room for multiple vehicles, kayaks, tools and toys. Make this your island home and take daily walks on beautiful Bowman's Beach.
