Property details

About 5379 Palmetto St

Nestled in the heart of island serenity, this stunning home is built to last and offers the perfect blend of durability, comfort, and style. Having weathered six hurricanes, it showcases unmatched resilience with structural upgrades like 10 cypress beams, double-strength Sanibel hangers, and hurricane-rated PGT windows and impact-resistant sliders. The residence underwent a comprehensive renovation in 2010, which included a complete overhaul down to the studs. The home was meticulously reconstructed with updated electrical systems, plumbing, and the addition of a durable metal roof. Due to the remodel the home now reflects an effective build date of year 2000 which can be found on the Lee county property appraisers web site under details. Recent improvements—including energy-efficient sprayed-in insulation, luxury vinyl plank floors, and a completely new AC system—ensure modern convenience while maintaining the island charm. The large elevated lanai offers a private oasis where you can enjoy the soothing island breezes and panoramic views. Located on a quiet, dead-end street, the home provides a peaceful retreat while still being only minutes away from the beach, Times Square, and Santini Plaza. With underground power lines, a mid-island location, and top-of-the-line upgrades, this home provides a rare combination of security and luxury. Perfect for a weekly rental investment, it promises consistent appeal to vacationers seeking both comfort and peace of mind. Whether you're an investor or looking for a getaway with a steady rental income, this property is an opportunity not to be missed.
