Exceptional opportunity to create your dream island retreat in one of Sanibel's most desirable locations! Situated on a spacious corner lot at 1653 Atlanta Plaza Drive, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers approximately 1,200 square feet and is just a short walk or bike ride from Sanibel's world-famous shell-strewn beaches, charming boutiques, local restaurants, and vibrant shopping destinations. With the finishing touches still to be completed, this property offers the perfect opportunity to customize and design your ideal island home. Much of the heavy lifting has already been done, with major restoration and infrastructure improvements completed to provide tremendous value and peace of mind for the next owner. Recent upgrades include a new roof, impact-resistant windows and doors, new HVAC system, all-new electrical wiring and panel, new PEX plumbing throughout, and a tankless water heater. Storm mitigation has been completed, and drywall and insulation have been professionally removed approximately 3-4 feet throughout the home, creating a clean slate for your choice of finishes and personal design vision. Sanibel Island is renowned for its pristine white-sand beaches, breathtaking sunsets, abundant wildlife, and laid-back coastal lifestyle. Whether you're searching for a primary residence, seasonal getaway, vacation home, or investment opportunity, this property presents a rare chance to complete a home exactly to your tastes while enjoying one of Southwest Florida's most sought-after island communities. Bring your imagination and transform this property into the perfect Sanibel sanctuary just moments from the beach, restaurants, shops, and everything island living has to offer.
