Gulfside Place Unit #319 at 1605 Middle Gulf Drive, Sanibel Island
Penthouse Privacy Plus Expansive Gulf of Mexico Views
- Built in phases from 1980 to 1981 and to withstand the “100-year storm”, Gulfside Place is known for its energy efficiency, sold construction, sound-proofing, and strong financially-stable association.
- Spread over approximately 17 acres with about a quarter mile of beachfront overlooking the Gulf of Mexico, the 84 Gulfside place owners enjoy a variety of amenities as well as the peace-of-mind of an on-site manager’s and association offices.
The buildings were constructed in a “W” configuration, with all units enjoying water views, and designed for privacy with elevators and stairs situated so that no owners walks past more than one residence to get to their own front door.
The grounds are tropically landscaped with the buildings nestled around two large courtyards each with a 30′ x 50′ beach-side pool having sun-deck, rest rooms, sauna, and showers. Additional amenities include six lighted tennis courts; two shuffleboard courts, and clubhouse with fully-equipped kitchen, party room, and fitness center.
Unit #319 is a top-floor two bedroom with den (though the den is currently decorated and used as a third bedroom). It features updated kitchen and baths which compliment the neutral furnishings and island-style decor.
It has tropical southwesterly views of the courtyard, beach, and Gulf of Mexico from the great room, dining area, kitchen, master suite and 23′ screened balcony.
With storm shutters all-’round, a large ground-level storeroom, and covered parking for two cars, Gulfside Place can be easily used as a vacation retreat, second home, or primary residence. Rentals are limited to monthly, though in demand. The complex is known for being one of the most residential condominiums on Sanibel island. With approximately 1,802 sq. ft. of living space, ~1,962 sq. ft. total, this condominium floor plan is larger than most. The large master bedroom has ensuite bath and walk-in closet, while the guest bedroom is spacious enough for two double beds.
A separate utility room offers extra storage while a full wall of closets along the entry foyer is handy to the kitchen. The renovation at this unit also features custom cabinetry on either side of the pass-through breakfast bar to the dining area. Custom built-ins in the master bath with double sinks, walk-in shower with bench seat, as well as hard-surface countertops.
