Tucked away in a quiet, seldom-traveled enclave along the mid-western shoreline of Useppa Island, this private
2-bedroom, 2.5 bath attached villa offers a rare sense of seclusion paired with sweeping coastal views. Oriented to the northwest, the residence overlooks the Intracoastal Waterway with panoramic sightlines stretching across Cabbage Key, Cayo Costa, Boca Grande Pass, and Gasparilla Island beyond.
The home features a thoughtfully designed “upside-down” floor plan, with two en-suite bedrooms located on the first level and the main living areas positioned above to fully capture the stunning water views. Upstairs, the kitchen, living room, and screened waterfront balcony create an inviting space for daily living and entertaining, while the lower-level bedrooms provide a quiet retreat at day’s end.
Designed for comfort and peace of mind, the villa is equipped with impact-rated windows and doors, along with electric storm panels protecting the screened balcony. Tasteful updates are found throughout, including recently renovated bathrooms, a new HVAC system, and a new water heater. Timeless wood flooring runs through the bedrooms, where classic finishes are complemented by the warmth and character of a traditional fireplace.
Just beyond the living room, the screened balcony overlooks a protected basin and shared dock. The property includes a one-third ownership interest in the dock, granting use of a boat slip—an exceptional amenity for island living. The dock sits just off the Intracoastal Waterway, with Cabbage Key less than a half-mile to the south. Cayo Costa State Park, renowned for its 7.5 miles of pristine Gulf beaches, is a short boat ride away via either Captiva Pass or Boca Grande Pass, both within four miles.
For many buyers seeking a true Florida island escape, sunset water views and private, deeded dockage rank at the top of the wish list. This residence offers both—providing a rare blend of convenience, beauty, and long-term investment security. Unit #303-A delivers these highly sought-after features in a thoughtfully finished, low-maintenance package.
