Welcome to island life the way it's meant to be. This top floor, direct gulf residence at The Atrium on West Gulf Drive captures the best of Sanibel such as endless views, brilliant sunsets and the soothing sound of waves on shell laden sands just beyond your doorstep. The desirable southwest exposure fills the home with warm natural light by day and breathtaking sunset views in the evening. Go inside to discover a bright layout featuring two bedrooms with gulf views, two baths, and a versatile office/den that easily converts to a guest space or reading retreat. The well appointed kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and a convenient breakfast bar that is ideal for entertaining or quiet mornings by the sea. A wraparound lanai extends your living space, ideal for soaking in ocean breezes or relaxing in air conditioned comfort while watching the waves roll in. The Atrium has recently enhanced its lush landscaping, creating a coastal oasis that complements its premier beachfront setting. Enjoy direct access to Sanibel's famous white sand beach via a private boardwalk or spend your afternoons by the Gulf side pool. Additional amenities include new pickleball courts, dedicated bicycle storage, covered parking and a private ground level storage unit for all your beach gear. Top floor units like this are rarely available at The Atrium, so don't miss this opportunity to experience the best of island living and Sanibel sunsets.
