About this property
Beachfront on Captiva - 1.07 acres of pristine beachfront on one of the Gulf Coast's most exclusive islands, Captiva Island. Imagine owning 106 feet of direct Gulf Frontage and highly desirable Western Exposure, this rare homesite offers unobstructed sunsets, endless water views, and the soothing sound of waves meeting the white sand shoreline. One of only a handful of remaining buildable beachfront parcels on Captiva's famed Gold Coast, this exceptional property provides the scale and privacy to create a luxury coastal estate or multi-generational family compound, a lifestyle that is increasingly rare in today's market. Envision a custom residence with an expansive pool and spa overlooking the Gulf, morning shelling walks, world-class fishing, and tranquil evenings framed by colorful sunsets and the sea breeze flowing through your future home. The property is surveyed and includes professionally designed building plans for a stunning 7,995 SF multi-level residence with a second-floor pool and separate guest quarters, offering a virtually shovel-ready opportunity or the freedom to design your own coastal retreat. With over 400 feet of depth and natural privacy from Captiva Drive, it is ideal for creating a secluded beachfront retreat while remaining close to the island's village. Just a short stroll to Andy Rosse Lane, the heart of Captiva's charming and laid-back lifestyle, with boutique shops, waterfront dining, and iconic restaurants such as The Mucky Duck, The Bubble Room, Green Flash, and Old Captiva House. Enjoy nearby marinas, watersports, South Seas Island Resort and Golf Course, Tween Waters Inn & Marina, and miles of unspoiled white sand beaches, all within a stroll of your future home. Captiva provides an unhurried island setting with no traffic lights or commercial congestion. The ideal setting for a private island retreat, yet conveniently located just a short drive from RSW International Airport, Page Field for private aviation, and Naples, offering world-class fine dining, luxury shopping, and cultural amenities. This is a truly irreplaceable Gulf-front estate parcel in one of Florida's most prestigious luxury real estate markets, offering scale, flexibility, privacy, and direct beach frontage that is rarely available on Captiva Island or the Sanibel barrier islands. A premier opportunity to build a legacy property on the Gold Coast of Southwest Florida's Gulf Coast.
