This beautiful Gulf-front home sits on Little Gasparilla Island, a bridgeless barrier island off the Cape Haze peninsula. A 10-minute boat ride leads to the shared dock, which has space for a private boat lift. Offered turnkey furnished, the modern home features four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The open living room, dining room, and kitchen area overlook the beach and the Gulf’s blue-green water. Sealed concrete floors complement the home’s modern, natural design, while in the living room and dining room the vaulted wood ceilings and two large sliding glass doors create a bright, spacious living area. The doors open to a generous screened front lanai with sweeping beach and Gulf views, the perfect place to watch sunsets, passing boats, dolphins, manatees, and diving birds. The open kitchen includes upper shelving, seafoam-green lower cabinets, an earthy stone-tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and butcher-block countertops. Both bathrooms have been updated. The primary bedroom offers Gulf views and direct access to the lanai through sliding glass doors. Its bathroom includes a double-sink vanity, a tub-and-shower combination, and a newer washer and dryer. Major updates include a new air-conditioning system installed this year with a 10-year parts-and-labor warranty, a roof replaced in 2023, a new water heater and septic system installed in 2024, stairs, decks, and railings replaced in 2023–2024, and dock repairs and upgrades completed in 2025. The home also has a strong rental history. Although Little Gasparilla Island has no grocery stores, restaurants, or shops, it offers 3½ miles of uncrowded beach for walking, collecting shells and shark teeth, swimming, reading, and relaxing in the sun. The surrounding waters provide excellent fishing for redfish, snook, snapper, trout, and more, and many waterfront restaurants are accessible by boat. At day’s end, join friendly neighbors at the water’s edge and watch the sun set on another peaceful day in paradise. Please check back soon for more photos and virtual tour.
