Buttonwood Cottage – BUTON Home - monthly rental

"Buttonwood Cottage" is a charming, single-story and spacious cottage located on a private, quiet, sandy-shelled lane linking the Bay beach with the Gulf beach. The walk to either beach takes only a few minutes (about 50 yards) and you are also walking distance to Sanibel's East End unique shops, restaurants, the historical lighthouse and fishing pier. The original cottage was built in 1956 in old-Florida style, but has been extensively extended up to 2800 sq. feet living space to include 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms sleeping up to 10 guests comfortably. The entire home has been modernized and benefits from cathedral ceilings and hardwood floors in all rooms along with an impressively large Florida living room. The living room has a large flat screen HDTV with premium channels, surround sound stereo system, DVD player, wood-burning fireplace and plenty of seating to accommodate your guests. It has wall-to-wall sliding glass doors which open to the pool and dining deck and French doors that lead out to a private deck. The recently remodelled kitchen comes fully equipped with all new appliances and beautiful granite counter tops. There is a cozy, sunny sitting room just off the kitchen with a flat screen TV, DVD player and plantation shuttered windows facing south and west. French doors open out to the pool deck where you may extend your family dining experience as you view the landscaped back yard and pool area. The master bedroom has a Californian king size bed, TV, private recently remodelled bathroom with a walk-in shower and double vanity. Inside the walk-in closet there is a special work area equipped with a computer desk, printer and high speed WiFi internet. The view from this bedroom overlooks the landscaped front gardens.
