Nestled on storied Binder Drive, where the road winds quietly past some of Captiva’s most cherished waterfront homes, 15009 Binder Drive aka Limoncello is a rare fusion of historic charm and refined coastal elegance. Built in 1964—just one year after the Sanibel Causeway connected Captiva to the mainland—this estate is more than a home; it’s a reflection of the island’s evolution and enduring spirit.
Originally part of the homestead of William Herbert Binder, Captiva’s first modern settler, the land became part of Captain Frank A. Lane’s visionary “Lane’s Bay View.” Today, this beautifully reimagined bayfront retreat honors that legacy while embracing modern luxury. The main residence offers panoramic views of Captivas Bayfront and a light-filled floor plan featuring three spacious bedrooms, four full baths, a powder room, and soaring vaulted ceilings. Impact-rated windows and doors frame every room in natural light, bringing the outside in.
The gourmet kitchen is a showpiece, appointed with top-of-the-line appliances, waterfall quartz countertops, custom wood cabinetry, designer lighting, and a paneled refrigerator. A thoughtfully designed wet bar includes refrigerator drawers, an ice maker, and custom shelving—perfect for effortless entertaining. The primary suite offers ultimate serenity with bayfront views, dual walk-in closets, a private balcony, and a luxurious spa bath with soaking tub and walk-in shower.
Step outdoors to a private paradise: a fenced-in pool surrounded by tropical landscaping, artificial turf, a putting green, expansive decking, and screened porch. From your backyard, watch the Lady Chadwick glide across the channel or launch straight into the Gulf with deep-water dockage, a 32,000 lb boat lift, two jet ski lifts, and a kayak/paddleboard platform.
Two charming guest residences complete the estate: a cozy one-bedroom cottage, and an elevated one-bedroom suite with a mini kitchen. Whether for visitors or private retreat, each space extends the legacy of warm island hospitality.
15009 Binder Drive is more than a Captiva address—it’s a timeless chapter in the island’s living history.
