You must see this charming 1940s Craftsman cottage tucked into the historic heart of Anna Maria Island! This beautifully renovated two-bedroom, two-bath homestead blends timeless Old Florida character with effortless coastal charm. The home’s distinctive pecky pine exterior pay homage to its heritage while creating a warm, inviting island aesthetic that reflects the relaxed spirit of Anna Maria’s historic beach community. Inside, the home opens into a light-filled open floor plan designed for easy coastal living and effortless entertaining. The living, dining, and kitchen areas flow seamlessly together, creating a welcoming gathering space filled with natural light and breezy island ambiance.

Step outside to discover a beautifully landscaped private pool enclosure, surrounded by lush tropical greenery that creates a tranquil island oasis. It’s the perfect spot to relax, unwind, and soak in the peaceful rhythm of Anna Maria’s laid-back island lifestyle. All of this is located just two blocks from Anna Maria’s world-famous sugar-sand beaches, and only moments from the island’s beloved restaurants, charming boutiques, and local shops. Spend your days biking to breakfast cafés, strolling to dinner with sunset views, or exploring the unique coastal storefronts that make Anna Maria so special. This lovingly restored cottage offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of historic island charm paired with modern comfort in one of Florida’s most treasured beach communities.
Local Insight
At just under $1M for a 1940s cottage on a tight 0.11-acre lot in an AE flood zone, you're paying a Gulf-proximity premium that hinges entirely on that private pool and direct beach access—make sure flood insurance costs and elevation requirements won't eat into your budget long-term. The $953/sqft price is steep for a 2-bed built 84 years ago, so structural condition during inspection is critical, especially given the age and coastal exposure. This is the kind of property where location and amenities matter far more than square footage, but you need to understand your true flood risk and insurance obligations before falling in love with it.
