About this property
Enchanting 5BR canal front pool home | Sanibel Island | Bike to beach
Escape to the enchanting Cheryl's Hideaway, a stunning 5-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom retreat tucked beneath a canopy of native seagrape and palm trees. Nestled along a peaceful canal on Sanibel's coveted east end, this architecturally unique, three-level home offers the perfect blend of adventure, comfort, and relaxation for families and groups of up to 10.
Cheryl's Hideaway is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. The canal-front property features a private dock, making it easy to launch one of the two provided kayaks, canoe, or five paddleboards. Whether you're exploring the bay's tranquil waters or simply enjoying the natural beauty from the dock, this home invites you to connect with the island's serene environment. For those bringing additional gear, a designated storage rack accommodates up to six vessels.
Inside, the main level greets you with a fully equipped kitchen offering scenic water views, a spacious dining room, and a comfortable living room with a flat-screen TV and seating for eight. Step outside to a massive screened-in entertaining area complete with a pool, outdoor griddle, dining space, and lounge seating—a perfect setting for poolside barbecues or quiet evenings under the stars. An additional screened patio off the kitchen provides a cozy spot to savor your morning coffee while soaking in the surrounding sights and sounds of nature.
The second level is a haven of comfort and convenience, featuring a sitting area with a sectional sofa and flat-screen TV, along with three inviting bedrooms. The master suite includes a king-size bed and an ensuite bathroom with a garden tub and walk-in shower. The two guest rooms—one with a queen bed, the other with a trundle bed—share a bathroom with a tub-shower combo.
Ascend the open staircase to the third level, where two luxurious king-size bedrooms await, each with its own private ensuite bathroom. These upper-level retreats offer privacy and comfort, making them ideal for unwinding after a day of island adventures.
Cheryl's Hideaway boasts an unbeatable location, just a short bike ride to the Gulf and bay beaches. Explore nearby attractions like the historic Sanibel Lighthouse, the charming shops and eateries at Gramma Dots, or embark on a thrilling dolphin cruise with the Sanibel Thriller. Whether you're seeking adventure or relaxation, Cheryl's Hideaway offers an unforgettable Sanibel experience, combining the best of island living with modern comforts and serene natural beauty.
