From here, you're not just close to Sanibel, Captiva, and Fort Myers Beach... you're living in the middle of it all. You've got a private beach, a marina, and a 600-foot pier (being completed this summer) all right inside the community. It's one of those hidden spots people find and never want to leave. Now let's talk about the villa. The first thing you'll notice is how tropical and private it feels. You're surrounded by mature landscaping, and with southwestern exposure, you're going to get those incredible Florida sunsets right from your own lanai. The entire exterior was just freshly painted in 2024-including the soffits-and you have new gutters (2024), a new roof (2023), and a brand-new HVAC system (2025), so all the big-ticket items are already taken care of. As you walk in through the French doors, the home just opens up. You have 12-foot ceilings, 8-foot doors, and over 2,000 square feet of living space, and it all feels even bigger because of the natural light pouring in. Those two large arched windows really stand out-they brighten up the entire main living space and give the home a unique character you don't see often. The layout flows exactly how you want it to. It's a true open-concept design, with the living room, dining area, and kitchen all connected for easy, everyday living. Then you have recessed triple sliding glass doors that open completely to the screened lanai, giving you that seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle everyone comes to Florida for. The kitchen has a really clean, functional setup with a large island that combines your sink and seating area. It's perfect whether you're cooking, hosting, or just hanging out. Throughout the main areas, you have tile flooring, and then Brazilian Cherry hardwood floors in the bedrooms that add warmth and a more custom feel. The primary suite is set up exactly how you'd want it-private, spacious, and with direct access to the lanai. The bathroom features dual sinks, a soaking tub, a walk-in shower, a skylight for natural light, and a large walk-in closet. And then you have a den that can flex however you need-office, reading room, or even a third bedroom. You have two community pools-one just around the corner-plus tennis and pickleball courts with an active, welcoming community. There's a private marina with wet and dry slips available for lease, a boat launch, trailer storage, a private beach, and a pavilion area to relax and take it all in. And from a financial standpoint, everything is solid-all assessments have already been paid, and the community reserves are fully funded with a strong plan in place for future improvements. To top it off, this villa has NEVER SEEN HURRICANE FLOODING!
