About 551 Sea Oats Dr
This charming beach cottage-style home is just what you've been looking for! Located mere steps from the sand and shells of Sanibel, this property has deeded beach access hardly a five minute walk door to seashore. Adding to its enchantment, we find oak hardwood floors, nine foot ceilings throughout, a working wood fireplace, and an oversized lanai facing west for your sunset viewing. Elevated above the required height, this home has ample storage below as well as covered parking for two vehicles. The roof is metal, and the supporting joists have additional strapping for strength. Custom built by Jeff Good Builders, this property is bathed in sunlight throughout the day and is so close to the Gulf that you can hear the surf every evening. In addition to the lovely home, the yard boasts healthy mature vegetation such as mango, palm, strangler fig, frangipani and numerous ornamentals for a lush tropical feel.
