The location is premier. Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Sunset Cove, a rare neighborhood that prohibits weekly rentals, this elevated beach home offers the ideal retreat for peaceful island living. Get to know your neighbors and enjoy the benefits of a full-time or seasonal residence, with gorgeous ocean views just steps from the sugar-white sands of Anna Maria Island, and convenient beach access just around the corner. This unique home was designed by architect H. Patterson Fletcher and showcases Frank Lloyd Wright inspired elements that emphasize harmony with nature, open living spaces, and abundant natural light. Solidly constructed and custom built, the home presents a rare opportunity, set on an expansive walled lot just steps from the beach, offering ample space to add a pool and create a private outdoor oasis. The 3BD/2.5BA residence plus bonus room spans three levels, with a large garage below providing generous storage and a welcoming foyer entry. Inside, soaring ceilings and a wall of sliding glass doors in the living room invite in soft natural light while framing tranquil views of palms and Gulf waters beyond, with sliders opening to a spacious screened porch perfect for relaxing afternoons, breezy evenings, and al fresco dining. The open concept kitchen and living area flow seamlessly, featuring new appliances, a granite island, custom solid wood cabinetry, and large skylights. The primary bedroom enjoys a private balcony just beyond a wall of sliders, along with a spacious en suite bath and dual walk in closets. The versatile upper level offers a flexible living space that adapts to a variety of needs, functioning beautifully as a second living area for visiting family and friends with two separate sleeping areas and a full bath, ideal for hosting while still allowing for privacy, and when not used for guests, the bonus area easily serves as a den, playroom, office, or creative studio. Wraparound windows and a top level deck showcase beautiful water and treetop views, perfect for sunrises, sunsets, or stargazing. While ready for cosmetic updates, this home’s solid construction, architectural pedigree, generous lot, and unbeatable location make it an exceptional canvas for a luxury beach retreat.
