Escape to one of Florida’s most unique private waterfront communities—Tidy Island—where nature, history, and coastal living exist in perfect harmony. Nestled within a protected wildlife preserve, this rare island enclave offers privacy, serenity, and a lifestyle surrounded by lush mangroves, tranquil waterways, and native Florida wildlife. This beautifully appointed 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence offers 2,541 square feet of living space and is thoughtfully designed for both comfort and functionality. Recent upgrades include a new roof (2021) and brand-new 2025 high-impact windows and doors with a lifetime warranty, providing peace of mind and energy efficiency. The home features an updated kitchen and primary bathroom, with marble, tile, and wood flooring throughout, plantation shutters in the bedrooms, a wet bar, and a wood-burning fireplace anchoring the living room. Enjoy seamless indoor-outdoor living from the screened outdoor patio, or simply walk out your back door to launch your very own kayak or paddle boards, offering direct access to the surrounding waterways and a truly immersive coastal lifestyle. An elevator services all three levels, providing ease and accessibility, while additional storage rooms have exceptional space rarely found in island living. Residents of Tidy Island enjoy a 24-hour manned security gate, on-site management offices, and resort-style amenities including two community pools, a clubhouse with card and gathering rooms, a wellness and fitness center, brand-new tennis and pickleball courts, scenic walking trails, a private kayak launch, and the island’s own historical museum. Just minutes from the mainland yet worlds away from the ordinary, this is a rare opportunity to own in a community that honors Florida’s past while offering a refined, nature-inspired waterfront lifestyle. Tidy Island is truly one of a kind!
