Architecture, nature and island living come together in a home unlike anything else on Sanibel. Designed and originally built by renowned architect Kevin Farrell as his own family residence, this one-of-a-kind contemporary retreat was created around natural light, privacy and a seamless connection between indoors and out. Farrell's work includes the Sanibel Causeway, adding a special architectural pedigree to a home that truly must be experienced. Tucked into the quiet Del Sega community, just minutes from the heart of Captiva, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home is surrounded by lush native landscaping on more than half an acre. Soaring ceilings, walls of glass and expansive windows bring the tropical surroundings inside while maintaining remarkable privacy. Then there is the pool. More private resort than backyard, this extraordinary outdoor oasis is centered around a large custom pool with sun shelf, hand-laid mosaic details and a poolside palapa with cascading rooftop waterfall. Spend afternoons by the water, dine beneath the palms or enjoy the newly screened no-see-um patio. A pool bath and outdoor shower complete the experience. The primary suite is its own private escape with sitting area and balcony offering a peek-a-boo Gulf view. When sunset approaches, one of Southwest Florida's most beautiful beaches is just yards away; close enough to make an evening walk to the Gulf part of everyday life. The expansive garage is another rarity, with front, rear and side access plus exceptional storage and flexibility for vehicles, an RV, boat, water toys, workshop or collector-car storage. Multiple driveways add even more versatility. Recent improvements include a 2024 aluminum standing-seam roof with 30-year warranty, 2026 Trane HVAC, new pool heater and equipment, upgraded 200-amp electrical panel with generator connection, irrigation, landscaping, interior/exterior paint, gutters and more. Deeded beach access and a neighborhood boat ramp put both the Gulf and bay within easy reach, while Captiva's dining and island lifestyle are just minutes away. In a setting that feels worlds away from everything, this is more than a distinctive Sanibel home; it is an architectural island retreat that would be nearly impossible to recreate today.

Golf. Beach. New construction. This newly completed 2026 residence in Sanibel’s Beachview community brings together three qualities rarely found in one island home: long views down the 14th fairway of Sanibel Island Golf Club, deeded Gulf beach access and substantial concrete construction designed with Florida living in mind. The home’s eastern exposure looks down the manicured fairway, creating a long, open backdrop for both the interior and outdoor living spaces. Inside, 12-foot ceilings and solid white oak plank flooring establish a clean, sophisticated aesthetic, while pocketing disappearing sliders open the great room completely to the outdoor living spaces, seamlessly connecting the two. Completed to modern construction standards, the residence incorporates Insulated Concrete Form construction along with extensive concrete components, including concrete construction through the main living level and subfloor and concrete front and rear lanais. ICF construction combines a reinforced concrete core with continuous insulation, creating a building envelope valued for structural resilience, energy efficiency, reduced outside-noise transmission and improved control of heat and humid-air infiltration, advantages particularly relevant to Southwest Florida. A metal roof and a whole-house 24-kilowatt propane generator with 1,000-gallon propane capacity further enhance the home’s infrastructure and preparedness. The main living level is designed for everyday comfort and entertaining. The kitchen features quartz countertops and a 40-inch gas range with six burners, griddle and two ovens, complemented by commercial refrigeration towers, a pantry and a beverage cooler. A separate office offers flexibility for potential use as a fourth bedroom. Privately positioned upstairs, the primary suite creates a retreat apart from the main living areas with vaulted ceilings, two walk-in closets, dual vanities, a soaking tub, a walk-in rain shower and electric window shades. Outdoor living is equally well considered. The pool and spa are surrounded by covered and uncovered gathering areas, while a reinforced pool enclosure with large panoramic panels preserves the expansive fairway outlook. An outdoor kitchen with a wet bar, beverage cooler and Coyote grill creates a complete setting for entertaining. Two single-width garages extend to double depth, offering exceptional storage and potential capacity for up to four vehicles. Beachview adds another dimension to the lifestyle. Sanibel Island Golf Club, its restaurant and pro shop are conveniently near the community entrance, with affordable memberships and daily rates providing the flexibility to play as frequently or casually as desired. When the beach calls, residents enjoy deeded Beachview beach access with parking for bicycles, golf carts and cars. The community also offers easy access to the Sanibel Causeway, the island’s extensive bicycle network and nearby resorts for dining or recreation.
