About this home
Welcome to 'Avoca'—a captivating GULF FRONTAGE/PRIVATE BEACH estate, ideally positioned along the coveted Tween Waters stretch of Captiva Drive on Captiva Island. Offering rare privacy, expansive grounds, and DIRECT beach frontage, this remarkable property showcases panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico and a private beach path to sugar-sand shores. Avoca is one of the rare properties in Captiva that showcases the luxurious resort-style pool in the back of the home, allowing for STUNNING SUNSET VIEWS AND IMMENSE OUTDOOR SPACE! Spanning over one acre and set at one of the highest elevations on the island (X Zone Flood Elevation), Avoca is located within the Estate Zoning district—allowing for up to three structures, providing exceptional flexibility for expansion or additional guest accommodations. The lush tropical setting frames a true resort-style backyard, featuring a 20' x 60' pool with integrated spa, a full outdoor kitchen, and one of the most impressive outdoor entertaining environments on Captiva. Recent upgrades include a newer roof and impact-rated windows and doors for added peace of mind. Inside, the residence is thoughtfully designed for relaxed luxury and effortless entertaining. Four expansive levels of decking invite breathtaking sunsets and Gulf breezes from nearly every room. The main living level offers a generous open layout with a spacious chef’s kitchen, open dining area, fireplace, elevator, multiple guest bedrooms, and light-filled gathering spaces. The third-floor owner’s suite is a private sanctuary, complete with a balcony, sitting area, office nook, and a well-appointed en-suite bath. Additional guest suites and a loft area provide comfortable accommodations for family and friends. Crowning the home is one of the largest rooftop sundecks on the island, delivering elevated, unobstructed coastal views. Whether envisioned as an extraordinary private Gulf-front retreat, a luxurious vacation escape, or a high-performing rental investment, Avoca represents a rare and compelling opportunity on world-renowned Captiva Island.
