Tucked away on over 10 acres in St. James City, this is a truly one-of-a-kind island retreat. Surrounded by a shallow saltwater bay and natural beauty, this private estate is perfectly positioned for peaceful living and vibrant wildlife watching—yes, even flamingos! The 3-story home offers over 3200 square feet of living space, with a spacious layout designed for comfort, entertaining, and relaxation. On the ground floor, enjoy a full game room, movie theater, guest bedroom, and bath. The second floor features a bright kitchen with quartzite countertops, marble flooring, handmade stained-glass lighting, and 2023 Bosch appliances. Glass doors and storm-rated windows bring in stunning bay views, while the wraparound screened porch invites you to unwind and take it all in. The top floor is dedicated to the expansive primary suite, complete with a luxurious bath, custom closets, and a private balcony with views stretching from Sanibel to Boca Grande. Outside, the newly added Michael Phelps swim spa is the ultimate upgrade—perfect for exercise or soaking under the stars—surrounded by a beautiful deck and terrace. Additional features include a massive 2,400 sq ft garage, upgraded 300-amp electric service, smart home lighting, two new A/C units, whole-house dehumidifiers, and even fenced enclosures for pets or livestock. Flood insurance is surprisingly affordable at just $2,929 per year. This is island living—reimagined.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
