The residence

About this residence.

A rare offering on Sanibel’s exclusive Joewood Drive, this completely reimagined Gulf-front estate embodies understated coastal luxury and meticulous craftsmanship. Set within the private Gulf Ridge community, the home has been rebuilt from the ground up, featuring a new standing-seam metal roof, impact-rated glass throughout, and a whole-house generator for complete peace of mind. Designed for effortless island living, the residence offers soaring ceilings, an open-concept layout, and panoramic Gulf views that flood the interiors with natural light. The elevated pool and deck flow seamlessly from the main living level, creating a perfect indoor-outdoor experience for entertaining or quiet reflection. A private path leads from the home to a vast stretch of pristine beach, where shell-covered shores and breathtaking sunsets capture the essence of Sanibel’s natural beauty. Additional highlights include a private elevator, a chef’s kitchen with custom cabinetry and professional-grade appliances, and designer furnishings throughout. A stand-alone two-car garage provides added storage and flexibility for vehicles, golf carts, or beach gear. Every space, surface, and system has been thoughtfully curated for beauty, comfort, and durability. Move-in ready and masterfully rebuilt, 5079 Joewood Drive represents one of Sanibel Island’s finest Gulf-front homes, where refined design meets relaxed island living amid one of Florida’s most extraordinary coastal settings.
