Welcome to your dream retreat on Florida's beautiful Nature Coast. This expansive 4,366 sq ft (bottom floor will need renovation) island home offers unobstructed, open-water views of the Gulf of Mexico from nearly every room—including a breathtaking look out to Atsena Otie Key. Perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying… Read More peaceful island life, the main level features a wide open floor plan with generous living and dining areas situated between two spacious bedrooms in a split layout. The great room is lined with plantation-shuttered windows, allowing natural light to pour in and offering a front-row seat to the stunning seascape just beyond your deck. The kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring dual granite-topped islands—one for prep and one for casual seating—along with custom wood cabinetry, a built-in refrigerator/freezer, built-in double wall ovens, and a large pantry. Glass display cabinets and rich wood details complete the space, making it as functional as it is beautiful. The sprawling primary suite offers incredible Gulf views, a large sitting area, custom wall art, and a room-sized walk-in closet with wood shelving for easy organization. The attached bath includes double sinks, custom cabinetry, a large glass-enclosed shower, and a walk-in tub—designed with comfort and luxury in mind. The guest bedroom is generously sized as well, with space for two queen beds and an ensuite bath that also features a walk-in tub. Step outside to the wide Gulf-facing deck, with stainless steel railings and glass infill for uninterrupted views of the open water and the uninhabited islands in the distance. Whether you're lounging with a morning coffee or taking in a fiery sunset, the deck is an extension of your living space, tailor-made for island life. Downstairs, you'll find a separate-entry one-bedroom apartment with full Gulf views, currently in need of renovation. While the framing, electrical, and plumbing remain intact, this space awaits your personal touch to bring it back to life. Also impacted by the recent hurricane are the boardwalk, pier, and stairwell—all of which will need to be replaced. The elevator is currently not in working order and will require repair, while the glass pane on the upstairs deck will be replaced prior to closing. A wall inside the home featuring children's drawings is covered with an erasable surface and can be easily removed if desired. Located directly across from the island's public airstrip, this home is ideal for private pilots seeking a Gulf getaway. Tie-down space is available just steps away, making aerial access a breeze. For land-based adventures, hop in your golf cart and cruise along the water to the island's charming downtown, where you'll find a coffee shop, restaurants, public beaches, bars, library, and beautiful scenery around every corner—all just minutes away. This is one of the largest homes on the island, and it's located in a truly spectacular setting with unmatched Gulf access and sweeping open-water views. While some updates and repairs are needed, the potential to create your dream island escape is already here. Make an offer and turn this Gulf-front gem into your personal paradise! Read Less
