After Ian had his way with this charming original Island cottage, circa 1956, located down on the east end of the island, by the Lighthouse, this home was reimagined for today’s lifestyle and conditions, but has still maintained its classic Sanibel ambience. In collaboration with an island architect and an award winning contractor, this home was designed with the Sanibel lifestyle in mind. The ground level portion of this house was taken down to the studs and completely rebuilt, including a new slab, where the dining room now sits. New walls, new framing, new sub floors, new interior doors, new porcelain tile flooring, new electrical wiring, including panel, new plumbing, new ductwork, new HVAC new impact exterior doors and windows throughout the whole house.

The master bath is spacious with double sinks, separate soaking tub and walk in shower. On a whimsical note, the guest bath is designed after the infamous Bubble Room in Captiva and is certainly a conversation piece. All the flooring upstairs has been replaced with porcelain tile. Off the loft area is an alluring lanai and a great spot to unwind after a busy day of shelling. The saltwater pool was completely refinished and re-tiled, all new pool equipment, including pool heater, new screens on pool cage, new travertine marble tiles in and around pool and patio.

Amid the untouched landscapes of Sanibel Island, where nature and architecture quietly coexist, lies a rare estate designed not just to respect its surroundings but to elevate them. Casa de Joewood is more than a home, it is a refined expression of place, purpose and preservation. Set nearly an acre deep along the edge of Sanibel’s protected Gulfside Park, this private retreat is veiled from the road, offering seclusion and soul-stirring proximity to nature. The home's orientation, expertly imagined by architect Joyce Owens and realized by architect Edgar Burton, follows the arc of the sun and the rhythm of the seasons. Crafted with hurricane-rated concrete construction in 2016, impact glass and a standing seam metal roof, it is at once resilient and resolute. Within, the architecture unfolds with deliberate grace. A reverse floor plan raises the kitchen, great room, dining room and lanai to the treetops, capturing sunlight and Gulf breezes. The treetop elevation of the main floor and an abundance of windows capture the spectacular Gulf views to the south and in the other directions, views of the tropical hammock preserve lands and the island beyond. English oak engineered floors add warmth, while an elevator connects every level with ease. Each element of the home invites the outdoors in, calm, sun-soaked and endlessly serene. Perhaps the most poetic feature of Casa de Joewood is what lives just outside its walls. Named for the endangered Joewood Trees that flourish here, Sanibel’s symbolic plant and a rarity throughout the state. The home’s grounds are a living gallery of native flora and fauna. A gopher tortoise burrow is among match weed, osprey return to the nesting pole each season and butterflies emerge quietly from their stone-hinged chrysalises in the sculptural gardens. This is more than landscaping, it is habitat, heritage and homage. Deeded beach access, a gas-heated pool with elevated equipment and artisanal furnishings curated for the space complete the offering. Offered mostly furnished, this is a rare opportunity to own a legacy estate that aligns environmental stewardship with architectural artistry.
