    Overview

    This waterfront homesite on Clam Bayou is nearly one acre and is already enhanced for development. The property includes a cleared building site, an existing in-ground pool, and a newly constructed private dock, providing a head start for a custom residence that prioritizes indoor-outdoor living and bayou views.

    The land is located in an ecological zone designated as Upland Wetland (D2). Based on the provided impervious and developed-area allowances, approximately 25% impervious coverage and 30% allowable developed-area coverage are supported. Using the Lee County Property Appraiser’s reported lot size of 37,407 square feet, this equates to approximately 9,350 square feet of impervious area and approximately 11,222 square feet of developed area, giving room to plan a substantial home and outdoor spaces within the environmental constraints.

    For buyers who want to build on Sanibel with direct water access, the combination of a prepared site and dock can simplify early project planning. The parcel is positioned to support designs that take advantage of protected bayou waters and adjacent mangrove habitat, with room to accommodate terraces, entertaining areas, and a poolside setting.
