Experience the pinnacle of coastal living in Shell Harbor. Set along more than 120 feet of waterfront on one of Sanibel’s premier direct Gulf-access canals (no bridges!), this beautifully reimagined 4-bedroom + den, 4.5-bath residence blends luxury, light, and livability. Enter through custom wood doors into a sun-drenched foyer where soaring ceilings, a statement chandelier, and multi-level design create a sense of openness and elegance. The home features tile flooring throughout, an elevator, and a thoughtfully flowing layout ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The showpiece kitchen showcases Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, custom wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a gas cooktop, and a dedicated bar area perfect for hosting family and friends. The primary suite offers a private retreat with a balcony overlooking the water, vaulted ceilings, a spa-style bath with soaking tub and walk-in tiled shower, an expansive closet, and a laundry room for added convenience. Guest suites on the lower level provide ample comfort and privacy. Step through impact glass sliders to the outdoor oasis—complete with a covered patio, cook-in cabana, sparkling pool, and a private dock featuring composite decking and a boat lift for effortless Gulf access. Located on Sanibel’s desirable East End, this property offers easy on/off island access and includes community deeded beach access, combining island charm with unmatched boating and beachside convenience.
