Premier local manager, Destination Paradise welcomes you to “Gulfside Sunset”… a stunning oceanfront home with insane 360º views of the Gulf of America, downtown Sarasota, the tip of Anna Maria Island, and the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in St Petersburg/Tampa! This 4-level home sleeps up to 10 per side! This listing is for BOTH SIDES, A and B with 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, as well as 2 sofa beds in the 2 living rooms and 2 murphy bed in the 2 pool houses. “Gulfside Sunset” is located right on Bradenton Beach and is just minutes from Holmes Beach and Anna Maria Island. 2 hot tubs were just installed on the roof!

As soon as you arrive at this amazing island home, your first thought will be “How can I get to the top floor to take in the gorgeous ocean and island views”. The rooftop features plush turf, with 2, 2 hole putting greens as well as 2 hot tubs and plenty of seating for taking in that salty ocean breeze. Take the elevators or the outside stairways down to the main living floor and patio area and you’ll immediately be greeted with those cozy island vibes. Walk from the living and dining room area, through the galley style kitchen, and end up back in one of the three master bedroom/bathrooms. In the hallway outside of that bedroom, you can take the elevator or the stairs down to the first floor bedrooms, which both have ensuite bathrooms. There is also a washer and dryer on this floor.

Right across the street is multiple beach access points for getting to Bradenton Beach. Grab a boogie board or towel and beach chair and experience all that Bradenton Beach and Anna Maria Island have to offer. Make a coffee or pour yourself a glass of wine and take in the out-of-this-world sunsets that the West coast of Florida is famous for! After diving in the salty surf, this home has a private outdoor shower for rinsing the sand off. The sparkling swimming pools and grills are located right in front of the home!

Adjacent to the pool and grill is the “pool house”, equipped with its own AC unit, a murphy bed, sofa and TV for taking a break from the sun, taking a midday nap or giving those teenagers a place all to themselves! The access to the pool house is separate from the main home with doors leading to the back parking area and the front pool area.
