About this home
Unobstructed Gulf views define this true Gulf-front home on one of the most desirable stretches of Anna Maria Island. With nothing between the property and the shoreline, the balcony captures nearly three-quarters of a mile of uninterrupted beach frontage—an exceptionally rare vantage point created by the natural contour of the island to the north. Very few homes on AMI offer a view corridor this wide or this direct. Built in 2005 by Whitehead Construction, a respected builder in Manatee County, the home is well constructed and offers a layout well-suited for an immediate move-in or a next chapter renovation. The 4-bedroom, 5.5-bath design includes two Gulf-facing decks: one off the main living area and a private third-floor terrace exclusive to the primary suite. The location is one of the island’s best. Positioned at Coconut and Gulf, the home benefits from quieter traffic patterns while still offering walkable access to Pine Avenue’s coffee shops, restaurants, and boutiques. Sunset views are a nightly event, and beach access is just steps from the door. Additional features include a private pool, space for a covered outdoor kitchen, and a two-car garage with room for a golf cart and beach gear. At the time of construction, finishes were in the top tier for the island, and the home is now ready for a thoughtful update to match its premier location. Opportunities like 12106 Gulf are limited on Anna Maria Island. True Gulf-front ownership, a wide and unobstructed view corridor, and a location that delivers both privacy and walkability make this property stand out. Savvy buyers seeking the best views on the island will recognize the significance of this address.
Local Insight
At $5.95M on a quarter-acre lot in a VE flood zone, you're paying a significant premium for direct waterfront access and the pool—meaning flood insurance will be expensive and mandatory, so factor that into your true carrying costs before committing. The $1,715/sqft price is steep even for Anna Maria waterfront, so you'll want to verify what recent comparables actually sold for and whether the 2005 construction quality justifies the cost given potential storm exposure. This property works as a lifestyle buy if you're committed to the island and willing to absorb climate risk, but it's worth having a detailed environmental and structural inspection before proceeding.
