This sprawling estate along Roosevelt Channel on Captiva's Gold Coast is as breathtaking as it is private. The modest shell drive, hidden by vegetation, is designated by a small sign that reads Le Jardin or The Garden. Feel the tropical vegetation welcome you with palm trees, citrus groves and beautiful… Read More flowers as you make your way down the shell drive of this almost two-acre waterside estate. The first building you arrive at is a quaint guest cottage with a full kitchen, living room, bedroom and bath tucked away in the gardens and ideal for guests or caretakers. Venturing further down the winding shell drive takes you to the garage and storage building ideal for all your favorite modes of conveyance over land and water. Venturing further into the estate brings you to the beautiful pool house where beamed ceilings, a stone fireplace, and small kitchen and bedrooms surround a wonderful entertaining area with pool table or ping-pong table, dining area and living room, all off the large caged swimming pool. A beautiful roundabout ends at the three-story main house along the Roosevelt Channel. The beautiful Old Florida inspired home is tucked along the water offering gorgeous views from almost every room. The large kitchen with gas range is ideal for entertaining as friends and family gather beside the fireplace. The large porches are wonderful for watching all the wildlife the Roosevelt Channel hosts, including boats lazily floating by. Along the Channel you'll find your private dock and lift where a day of boating beckons you onto the tropical waters to fish, island hop or pop into a waterfront restaurant. You can also slide a kayak into the water and explore the natural and protected Buck Key just across the channel or enjoy a peaceful moment by the water under the shade of your thatched tiki hut. This is one of those rare properties where time stands still, and the fast pace of life is left by the entrance to your amazing garden. Read Less
