Welcome to Gearing Down!
Enjoy our Captiva Island vacation home in luxury. After sustaining damage in Hurricane Ian, we took the last two years to completely rebuild our island home, adding even more amenities.
Boasting an expansive floor plan with 4 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms that sleeps 14, Gearing Down is a desirable bayside home. Witness breathtaking sunrises from the covered lanai overlooking the private dock. Enjoy the peaceful serenity swept in by the cool gulf breeze in the private pool or hot tub.
On the first living level you’ll find a STUNNING BRAND NEW kitchen complete with bar/icemaker and island style seating at the center island and lounge chairs overlooking the bay. Adorned with all new furniture and fixtures, and the necessary amenities this first level is home to a formal dining table to seat 10, vast living room space, 3 king bedrooms with ensuites and a new fun powder bath located off the foyer.
The master suite, located on the uppermost level, is furnished with a king size bed and private his and her bathroom complete with shower and free standing tub and water closet. Roll out of bed and soak in the sun’s rays on the master suite balcony while overlooking the bay, dock and pool. Adjacent to the master suite is the 4th guest room fitted with 2 bunk beds comprised of 4 full sized beds. This bedroom now has a fun new nautical themed bathroom as well and easy access to the homes front sundeck.
Additional new features include a whole house SONOS sound system, TVs in all bed rooms, conveniently located HDMI port in bunk room for game consoles. Pool with automation and spa control. New Grilling area next to pool. Brand new outdoor shower with hot and cold to wash off the salt and sand!

Property location is on the water, lush vegetation, gorgeous beaches, incredible fishing, supreme boating opportunities, year-round sunshine, friendly neighbors, great dining and social scene, relative proximity to nearby cities, airports and interstates.

Fantastic Fishing! Watching the beautiful sunrise over the bay, private pool with Jacuzzi, private boat dock, back patios, spacious living accommodations. Biggest, most private lot in this location.
