Located on the northern end of Anna Maria, on one of the most exclusive and beautiful beaches in Florida, sits this quintessential beach house. The charm and simple elegance of this home will make you want to kick off your shoes and never leave. You'll be lounging on the elevated front porch, breathing in the sea air while marveling at brilliant sunsets. Wander inside the front door and the dream continues with soaring vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, a cozy real wood fireplace and a creative country kitchen inviting you to explore further. A center hallway leads to 2 ample sized guest bedrooms and a bath before opening up to the enormous master suite (added in 2001). Here you have a vaulted ceiling with sparkling light filtering in from the impact rated windows and enchanting French doors, leading out to a Juliet balcony. Kick back and enjoy the private tropical oasis patio surrounding the sparkling lap pool while its mesmerizing waterfall feature softly plays its sweet melody. Refresh in the pool's cooling water or turn on the Endless Flow feature and get some exercise. The pool also has a high capacity heat pump to keep the water at just the right temperature throughout the year. There is also a large outdoor storage room for kayaks and bikes along with covered parking for two vehicles. This is a unique place to call home. A quaint island neighborhood with friendly people and just a block from the gorgeous beaches of the Gulf of Mexico.
