Description of Property
Built in 2002 by respected Whitehead Construction, this elevated coastal residence is ideally positioned just a short walk from the Gulf of Mexico, offering a relaxed island lifestyle paired with thoughtful updates and versatile living spaces. Set on a lush, quarter-acre lot in the desirable Sunset Cove area of Anna Maria Island, the home is surrounded by mature tropical landscaping that creates privacy and a true sense of retreat—while keeping the beach within easy walking distance. Outdoor spaces are a highlight of the property. The organic-shaped tropical swimming pool is surrounded by a custom Florida sandstone deck, creating a private setting for relaxing or entertaining. Lush foliage enhances seclusion, while a hot-water outdoor shower makes returning from the beach effortless. Deeded beach access is just a short stroll away, allowing you to enjoy sunrise walks, sunset views, and spontaneous days along the Gulf’s sugar-sand shoreline. Designed with a “fun” coastal aesthetic, the residence features a lifestyle-driven floor plan that blends indoor comfort with exceptional outdoor living. High ceilings with tray and tongue-and-groove detailing, crown molding, and custom built-ins add architectural interest and warmth throughout the main living areas. The open layout connects seamlessly to the kitchen, which is appointed with custom solid-wood cabinetry, granite countertops, a breakfast bar, glass tile backsplash, Viking gas range, built-in oven and microwave, pantry storage, and newer appliances—including refrigerator, dishwasher, and washer (approximately two years old). Recent improvements enhance both comfort and efficiency, including a new air-conditioning system for the main house (installed November 2025), blown-in insulation to improve cooling on the west exposure, fresh exterior paint, and updated outdoor lighting. A pre-framed elevator shaft provides the option for future installation, offering flexibility for long-term enjoyment. The oversized, ground-level, under-building garage offers exceptional functionality with space for multiple vehicles, recreational equipment, and storage. Insulated garage doors were installed with classic car storage in mind, and the generous footprint supports a wide range of coastal living needs. Located close to island dining, waterfront restaurants, boating, and everyday conveniences, this residence also offers easy access to Sarasota’s cultural attractions, shopping, and entertainment just across the bridge. Whether used as a full-time residence or a refined beach getaway, this well-maintained coastal home delivers walk-to-the-beach living, privacy, and flexibility in one of Anna Maria Island’s most appealing setting
