About This Home
Welcome to the only residence on Sanibel offering both a private boat dock and Gulf views. This exceptional coastal retreat on the island’s coveted East End is being sold together with the adjoining vacant lot at 466 East Gulf Drive. Each parcel is separately priced and listed. The combined purchase price is the sum of both listings. The properties are not available for individual sale.
Set along a peaceful canal, the home features a private pool and generous outdoor living areas, ideal for unwinding after a day on the water or a short walk to the beach. Inside, the contemporary design includes a sleek gourmet kitchen, updated spa-inspired bathrooms, quality finishes, and impact-resistant windows and doors. A durable metal roof adds long-term resilience and coastal appeal.
Beach access is directly across the street, making sunrise coffee walks and sunset strolls an everyday habit. Offered furnished, the home is move-in ready for immediate island living.
The separately listed adjacent vacant parcel enhances this offering by providing additional privacy, future expansion options, or long-term investment flexibility.
Located on Sanibel’s desirable East End near the historic Sanibel Lighthouse, shops, restaurants, and the island’s shared-use paths, this combined property offering delivers a rare opportunity for waterfront living with Gulf views and added development potential.
