The Crown Jewel of Captiva Island, the one and only Sandpiper Estate. For the first time ever, the iconic Sandpiper Estate is available for purchase, presenting an extraordinary opportunity to own a legacy property on Captiva Island’s prestigious Gold Coast. Spanning 200 feet of prime sandy beach frontage, this breathtaking estate is a rare sanctuary where timeless elegance meets coastal tranquility. Designed for privacy, relaxation, and entertaining, the estate has been cherished for over 40 years as a treasured family retreat and now, it’s ready for its next fortunate owner. The main residence is a masterpiece of waterfront luxury, featuring 3-4 private bedrooms, a spacious central gathering area, and a fantastic kitchen with panoramic Gulf views. A grand dining area offers an elegant setting for entertaining, while a private study provides a quiet retreat. The home seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living, with an expansive screened lanai, multiple lounging decks, and breathtaking views from every angle. The outdoor spaces feel like a private resort, complete with a spectacular pool area offering unparalleled privacy and stunning waterfront views. Just off the pool, a charming beachside bungalow provides additional accommodations with two guest suites, each with en-suite baths, and a spacious family room for relaxing by the shore. The estate also includes a private tennis court, an additional 2 Br guest house or caretakers quarters, and lush tropical landscaping, creating a secluded and serene retreat. For those seeking the ultimate private estate, two adjacent properties, owned by this same owner, 16548 Captiva Drive and 16543 Captiva Drive are also available, allowing for the creation of an unmatched beach to bay front compound that offers a total of 300 ft of beach frontage, 100 ft of bay frontage with well over 5.25 acres total. This opportunity is more than a home; its a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own an iconic piece of Captiva Island.
