This exceptional 5-bedroom, 5-bath duplex is a well-established, turnkey vacation rental property consisting of two cottages - each with individual heated pools - situated in an ideal location surrounded by everything Anna Maria Island offers…quaint shops, world-class dining, and the fabulous Gulf of Mexico beaches. In 2009, both cottages were completely renovated resulting in a 3 bedroom/3 bath all en suite and a 2 bedroom/2 bath all en suite cottages that share one 8” thick concrete block wall. Their entrances are on different streets and most renters do not realize that they are connected at all as the block wall provides wonderful noise insulation. The renovation process brought them both down to bare block. For Sunrise (2-bedroom), that meant all interior walls were removed, but for Sunset (3 bedroom) built in 1947 with all concrete block walls, interior and exterior, only 2 interior walls were removed to make room for an additional bathroom. This makes the interior rooms of Sunset well insulated from one another and incredibly quiet. Sunset’s courtyard was enclosed to create a new master suite with a 10-foot, lighted tray ceiling. Each cottage received new raised ceilings, travertine floors and showers, granite countertops in the kitchens and baths, all fixtures, plumbing, electric, drywall, windows, doors, and appliances. There is crown molding throughout, and every door and window is fully trimmed with rosettes. Each cottage also features its own private heated pool. This is a great opportunity to own your piece of paradise and won’t last long.
