Welcome to your private island retreat in the heart of St. James City, where custom construction, tropical surroundings and exceptional boating access come together on an oversized lot. Designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining, this distinctive home offers two spacious primary suites, each with a private en suite, an open-concept great room with beautiful Brazilian Cherrywood floors and a striking Key Largo limestone fireplace, and walls of glass sliders that open to the expansive lanai and protected preserve beyond. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen features custom wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, tile backsplash, GE Profile appliances and a generous center island, complemented by a separate wet bar perfect for entertaining. Step outside and discover your own tropical oasis with a sparkling pool, desirable southern exposure and a private waterfront tiki hut—the perfect spot for cocktails, casual gatherings or simply relaxing after a day on the water. The expansive outdoor living area offers plenty of space to entertain, unwind and enjoy the Florida lifestyle year-round while taking in the peaceful preserve surroundings. Boaters will appreciate the boat lift and direct, deep-water Gulf access, putting Pine Island Sound and the renowned fishing, boating and beaches of Sanibel, Captiva, Cayo Costa and Fort Myers Beach within easy reach. One of the property’s standout features is the impressive 60' x 32' three-car garage with 10' ceilings, extended workshop area, air compressor with ceiling-mounted air reel and a convenient half bath that also serves the pool area. Additional features include RV parking with 50-amp service, impact windows and doors, Hardie Board siding, automated interior and exterior lighting, landscape lighting, an assumable flood insurance policy and a new roof in 2023. Surrounded by natural beauty yet designed with exceptional functionality, this is more than a home—it’s an opportunity to embrace the boating, fishing, entertaining and laid-back island lifestyle that makes St. James City so special.
