Description

Direct Gulf-front. Direct beach access. Inside the gates of The Cottages at Barefoot — one of Southwest Florida's most private coastal addresses, where fifteen residences share a single stretch of white sand. This is one of them. From its westward orientation, the horizon belongs to it. Three stories of light-filled coastal living rise above the beach, served by a private in-residence elevator. The main living level opens to the Gulf through walls of floor-to-ceiling glass that pull the ocean into the room. A fireplace anchors the great room. Tray ceilings, custom built-in cabinetry, and a wet bar with mirrored backsplash, glass-front display, and integrated wine rack carry the level of finish through the principal entertaining spaces. Bay windows with built-in window seats frame the water from multiple vantage points. Arched display niches and custom architectural detail elevate the formal dining room. A gourmet kitchen delivers stainless appliances, white cabinetry with decorative hardware, an integrated desk station, and recessed lighting throughout. Beyond the main level, a beamed-ceiling solarium opens to full ocean exposure and houses an in-room spa — the kind of private retreat that defines this category of home. The primary suite delivers marble countertops, dual undermount sinks, and a glass-enclosed rainfall shower. A dedicated home office is finished with extensive custom built-ins. Four bedrooms in total, plus a den, family room, dedicated laundry, and screened lanai. 2,962 square feet of living area; 4,156 total under roof. Construction is concrete block with stucco exterior and a tile roof — built for life on the Gulf. Hurricane shutters. Double-hung windows. Two-single car attached garage opens onto a paver drive framed by mature palms. The paver patio walks directly onto the sand. Optional membership is available to The Club at Barefoot Beach— resort-style pool, oceanfront dining, beachfront fire pit lounge, and tennis. The Cottages at Barefoot is a fifteen-unit condominium community with architectural standards, sidewalks, and streetlights. Pets welcomed with approval. Barefoot Beach is guard-gated, low-density, and bordered to the south by a state preserve. Direct Gulf-front opportunities inside this gate are rare.
