About 1222 Ferry Rd
A step back in time with modernized comfort. This wonderfully charming elevated cottage with detached garage and cabana bring back memories of Olde Sanibel. Lovingly restored with yellow heart of pine flooring, and a freestanding wood-burning brick fireplace with Gas insert in the main living area with vaulted ceilings and walls of impact glass to bring in the natural light. This gorgeous remodel features a stunning kitchen with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and a slide in gas range. The home wraps around a freeform screened in pool area, which is very private. Deceivingly spacious with four bedrooms and four baths this home flows beautifully with no wasted space along with multiple decks for relaxing and or entertaining. All of the bedrooms are en suite. The primary retreat overlooks the sparkling waters of the pool and has two walk-in closet closets, along with a commodious bathroom, offering a separate tub and shower. In addition, there are two living spaces alongside an office. Gorgeous grounds with meandering coral rock bordered shell paths complement the tropical mature vegetation around the property. An exceptional location with deeded San Carlos Bay beach access a mere 250 feet from the property along with deeded beach access to the Gulf of Mexico a 250 feet from the property. Another positive feature for privacy is the unbuildable parcel to the north. Just a steps away from the east end Village of Sanibel Island, offering boutique shopping, an award-winning restaurant, an eclectic deli, not to mention the world famous historic Sanibel Lighthouse, and famed fishing pier along the sandy shoreline at the eastern most tip of the island. Charming is an understatement. This is island living at it's best!
