Property Description

This charming beachfront home radiates Old Florida charm and is located on Little Gasparilla Island. LGI is a bridgeless barrier island situated off the coast of the Cape Haze Peninsula accessible only by private boat or water taxi, and it offers a peaceful escape in just a short 10-minute ride across the bay. If you’re seeking a quiet getaway, Little Gasparilla Island is the perfect destination. As soon as you arrive, you’ll feel the stress of the mainland melt away. The home features warm wood walls and floors throughout, creating a cozy and comfortable atmosphere. The spacious, screened-in front porch overlooks the Gulf, providing an ideal spot to unwind. Here, you can watch shore birds meander along the surf, spot dolphins and manatees swimming by, or simply enjoy a restful nap in the hammock, and at the end of the day watch the gorgeous sunsets. The kitchen is equipped with granite countertops, ample cabinetry for storage, and a large pantry. You’ll enjoy beautiful views of the water from the kitchen, dining room, living room, and the loft bedroom upstairs. The screened-in back porch is perfect for savoring your morning coffee while watching the sunrise glow through the trees. Both porches offer unique vantage points to enjoy the natural beauty surrounding the home. Little Gasparilla Island doesn’t have any grocery stores, restaurants, or shops, but has 3 ½ miles of uncrowded beach. Spend your days wandering the shoreline collecting seashells and shark’s teeth, swimming, or relaxing with a good book in the sun. The surrounding waters are excellent for fishing, with opportunities to catch redfish, snook, snapper, trout, and more. Come experience this lovely home and discover what it’s like to live on island time, surrounded by natural beauty and tranquility.
