Discover the pinnacle of serene island living in this elevated residence/half duplex less than 1/2 mile away from the best secluded Gulf beaches (deeded beach access) on beautiful Sanibel Island! Located on iconic rabbit road, the pictures tell the visual story of a home that lives big with almost 2,000 square feet of living area. Boasting expansive back yard views of preserve landscapes and tranquil Sanibel river waters visible from nearly every room, this home is a haven of relaxation with meticulous high end upgrades. Step into a culinary paradise with stainless steel appliances, including a 36” Verona range, complemented by newer soft-close cabinets, granite countertops, and thoughtful additions like a pot filler and wet bar sink. The spacious kitchen seamlessly flows into an amazing great room adorned with shiplap walls, vaulted ceilings, and generous picture windows that amplify the sense of space and flood the interiors with natural light. Two guest bedrooms, one featuring a private balcony with more water and preserve views, and another with a convenient jack-and-jill bathroom, offer comfortable coastal living. Ascend to the second-floor primary suite, boasting its own private balcony overlooking the lush preserve and water, with a luxurious master bathroom complete with a walk-in closet. Take advantage of private beach entrances at the end of Rabbit Road and/or a convenient bike path right behind the property on the protected preserve. Additional features include a two-car garage with ample storage space beneath the home, a low-maintenance backyard brimming with potential, and recent upgrades including a 2023 metal roof, 2024 PGT impact-resistant windows and sliders, 2024 Hardie board siding, and a newer HVAC system. Offered turnkey means what you see is what you get!. Very competitive and transferable windstorm and flood insurance (only $900/year!) are available. And if looking for an investment property, impressive rental projections for this home (provided by a third party rental firm) are available upon request. Sanibel Island is THE shelling capital of the world, and consistently is recognized throughout the globe as one of the best family vacation destinations. Now is the perfect moment to experience paradise and immerse yourself in the wonderful transformation of Sanibel Island. Schedule your private showing today and take the first step toward living your dream island lifestyle!"
