Under contract-accepting backup offers. Welcome to one of Anna Maria Island’s most distinctive addresses — a 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath luxury coastal residence steps from the Gulf that offers something exceptional even by island standards: C1 neighborhood commercial zoning that permits a ground-floor business with two floors of refined residential living above. The flexibility here is remarkable, and the Gulf-front setting is simply unmatched. Completely reimagined in 2022 and positioned one property from the Gulf, the home reflects the very best of modern coastal design. Wide-plank flooring, custom cabinetry, designer lighting, and an expansive open-concept layout create an effortless backdrop for both everyday living and elevated entertaining. The chef’s kitchen — anchored by stone countertops, premium appliances, and a generous island — flows seamlessly into the living and dining spaces. A private elevator connects all three levels with quiet elegance, enhancing accessibility and the overall sense of arrival. Each bedroom suite is a serene coastal sanctuary. The primary retreat elevates the experience further with a spa-inspired bath and private terrace access, while multiple balconies, covered lounge areas, and a swim-spa extend the living spaces outdoors. Impact windows and doors, elevated construction, and modern mechanicals deliver lasting durability and meaningful insurance advantages. Already a proven Airbnb performer and delivered fully furnished and turn-key, this property generates strong rental income when not in personal use. For the discerning buyer seeking a luxury Gulf-front home, a high-performing investment, a multigenerational retreat, or a live-work opportunity unlike anything else on the island — this C1-zoned address delivers it all, just steps from the Gulf and the iconic Sand Bar Restaurant.
