Description of Property
A premier setting defines this offering. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Sunset Cove—a rare enclave that prohibits weekly rentals—this elevated beach residence presents an exceptional retreat for tranquil island living. Become part of a true neighborhood community, whether in full-time residence or seasonal escape, with breathtaking Gulf vistas just a stone’s throw from the sugar-white sands of Anna Maria Island and dedicated beach access moments away. Designed by acclaimed architect H. Patterson Fletcher, this distinctive home embodies Frank Lloyd Wright–inspired principles, celebrating harmony with nature, fluid open spaces, and an abundance of natural light. Custom-built and solidly constructed, it occupies an expansive walled lot mere steps from the shoreline—offering the rare canvas to envision a private pool and bespoke outdoor sanctuary. Spanning three thoughtfully appointed levels, the 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence with bonus room welcomes guests through a gracious foyer, with an oversized garage below providing exceptional storage. Within, vaulted ceilings and an expansive wall of sliding glass doors bathe the living room in soft, filtered light while framing serene views of swaying palms and shimmering Gulf waters. Off the living area sliders open to a generous elevated screened lanai—an inviting setting for languid afternoons, twilight gatherings, and al fresco dining. The open-concept kitchen and living area flow together effortlessly, anchored by new appliances, a polished granite island, custom solid-wood cabinetry, and a double sized skylight that draws the sky inside. The primary suite offers a private balcony beyond its own wall of sliders, complemented by a spacious en suite bath and dual walk-in closets. The upper level is a study in versatility—an adaptable retreat featuring two distinct sleeping areas and a full bath, accommodating visiting family and friends with comfort and privacy. When not hosting, the space transforms effortlessly into a den, library, home office, or creative studio. Wraparound windows and a rooftop deck reveal sweeping water and treetop panoramas—an ideal vantage for sunrise coffee, golden-hour cocktails, and starlit evenings. While poised for cosmetic refinement, this residence's architectural provenance, enduring construction, generous grounds, and incomparable location make it an extraordinary canvas for a true luxury beach retreat.
