About this home
The Beach is Calling! Just steps from the sugar sands and turquoise waters of Bradenton Beach on world-famous Anna Maria Island, this rarely available income-producing duplex offers the perfect combination of island lifestyle, investment opportunity, and coastal charm. Whether you’re dreaming of owning a private beach retreat, a high-performing vacation rental, or both, this property delivers endless possibilities in one of Florida’s most desirable beach destinations. Imagine waking up to salty sea breezes, spending your days on the beach, and generating rental income all at the same time. Live in one unit while renting the other, lease both for maximum return, or create the ultimate multi-family vacation getaway. Opportunities like this are incredibly rare on Anna Maria Island, especially this close to the beach and the vibrant energy of Bridge Street. Both units have been thoughtfully updated and are being sold fully furnished and completely turn-key, making them ready for immediate enjoyment or short-term rental use. One unit is a true coastal showpiece featuring stylish shiplap accent walls, stunning tongue-and-groove ceilings, and a custom-designed primary bed with built-in storage that maximizes both functionality and charm. Recent improvements, including a brand-new roof installed in 2026, provide added value and peace of mind for years to come. Designed with both privacy and entertaining in mind, each unit features its own private entrance, dedicated parking, separate laundry room, and individual outdoor living spaces. The spacious balconies create the perfect setting for morning coffee, sunset cocktails, or gathering with family and friends after a day at the beach. Charming outdoor showers add the quintessential Florida touch, allowing guests to rinse off after long afternoons in the sand and surf. Each side of the duplex offers 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, comfortably accommodating multiple families or larger groups while still allowing everyone to enjoy their own private retreat. The flexible layout makes this property especially attractive for vacation renters, seasonal residents, or investors seeking strong income potential in a prime island location. Location truly sets this property apart. Just a short stroll away is Bridge Street, the lively heart of Bradenton Beach, known for its open-air restaurants, local boutiques, live music, and laid-back island atmosphere. Spend your days at nearby Coquina Beach, bike to the breathtaking shores of Bean Point, or explore the charming communities of Holmes Beach and Anna Maria to the north. Cross over to the historic Cortez Fishing Village for fresh-off-the-boat seafood and Old Florida charm, or venture into Bradenton for waterfront dining, arts, and attractions like the Bishop Museum of Science and Nature. For upscale shopping, fine dining, and cultural experiences, Sarasota, Longboat Key, and St. Armands Circle are all just a short drive away. This is more than just a property—it’s a lifestyle investment in one of Florida’s most beloved coastal destinations. Sunsets, sandy toes, island living, and incredible income potential all come together in this exceptional Anna Maria Island duplex. Your piece of paradise awaits.
