THE PERFECT SANIBEL HOME! Key West-style home with ceramic tile, cathedral ceiling, great room, pocket sliders to maximize water views from living area, kitchen, and split bedrooms with large main bedroom (with walk-in closet with safe). Built by Kennedy, the renowned Sanibel Builder, this home is well taken care of and continuously upgraded by the current owner, a Swiss architect, and exceeds the building code. Energy efficient, large overhangs, automatic attic exhaust fan, new special metal roof, pulldown attic stairs for easy access, and full-house generator with in-ground fuel tank. The 125' lakefront southern exposure ensures optimal sun on the screened lanai that overlooks the raised heated pool and the almost 17 acres of little Lake Murex. It has luscious landscaping with a well for irrigation (new pump), interior staircase suitable for chairlift, three car garage with automatic overhead doors, additional storage, and workshop. There’s a dehumidifier and even a built-in humidor for your special cigars! There are two tennis courts for owner and their guests, and deeded beach access within walking distance. Hurricane Ian safe. Virtually no damage.
