Timeless charm meets modern comfort in this iconic home located in Sanibel’s beloved Dunes community. Designed with classic New England character and Old Florida warmth, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence with a den offers inviting spaces filled with craftsmanship and comfort.
Step inside and you’re welcomed by shiplap walls, white-on-white interiors, wood floors, and a cozy fireplace that sets the tone for relaxed island living. The spacious primary suite features a large bath, generous walk-in closet, and serene natural light. Every detail, from the window boxes overflowing with blooms to the picket fence and porch swing, evokes a feeling of home, not just a house.
A separate guest apartment above the two-car garage offers a private retreat with its own bedroom and bath, perfect for guests, extended family, or creative studio space.
Outdoors, the home has been updated with all-new Hardie board siding, while the covered porch, lush landscaping, and storybook playhouse invite moments of joy and reflection. Across the street, protected preservation land ensures that your peaceful view of Sanibel’s natural beauty will remain untouched forever.
Every element of this property combines simple elegance with modern convenience, a home that feels both classic and completely current. 1517 Sand Castle Road isn’t just beautifully built, it’s beautifully lived in. You don’t just want to see it. You want to live here.
