180 N Gulf Blvd #3, Placida, FL 33946

Sandy toes and salty kisses; live the island life in this charming island bungalow located on enchanting "Palm Island", a short ferry ride from the mainland and a hop, skip & jump to a 7-mile stretch of white sandy beach along the gorgeous Gulf of Mexico. This 2 bedroom / 2 bath elevated "condo" is actually a duplex, sharing just one wall with the neighbor (no one above or below). It is a 2-level home, with your main living space on the top/elevated level and more room for play and storage on the lower/ground level. The elevated level offers a beautifully updated living space, with gorgeous marble, porcelain tile floor and glass back splash in the kitchen & both bathrooms. The master bathroom is spacious with a walk-in glass enclosed shower, while the second bath offers an elegant claw foot tub/shower. The second bath also houses the washer and dryer (all the appliances are stainless steel). Windows and doors are impact-resistant, and all windows have been updated with plantation shutters. The upper patio is accessible by sliding glass doors from both the living area and the master suite. The ground level provides more room for island fun with a spacious covered deck, secured golf cart garage and private outdoor shower. Relax on your screened patio as the sun sets over the Gulf, chill in your hammock on your deck, take a ride on your boat from your deeded deep-water dock, or swim in the heated community pool that you share with just 7 other units. Your tropical oasis, island home away from home, awaits you.
