Located on the northwest shoreline of private Useppa Island, #503 is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath attached villa with water views and easy access to the best boating in southwest Florida. This unit is off the main thoroughfare, offering more privacy than others while still being a short golfcart ride away from Useppa Island Club & Marina's restaurant and pool facilities. Useppa Island itself is a private island, available only to Useppa Island Club & Marina members and property owners, offering further exclusivity and privacy for those who have access to it. #503 still features some of the original features from its 1980 construction, with functional updates performed during the longtime owner's use, such as electric hurricane shutters for the sliding glass doors, new HVAC, new water heater, new washer/dryer and other upgrades to the living space and finishes. The living room features a cathedral ceiling, fireplace and huge views of the water through sliding doors which lead to the screen porch. On the eastern side of the first living floor is the Master Bedroom, with en-suite bath and direct access to an open deck. The two guest rooms and shared full bathroom are upstairs, creating separation between guests and family while presenting the potential for alternative uses such as a home office. The western guest room has access to an open balcony overlooking the water, where daily sunset performances can be observed from an elevated perspective. Ownership of #503 comes with the cost-free right to dock one boat 24' or less at the Useppa Village Community Dock, located about 400' away to the west. With desirable boating locations such as Cabbage Key, Cayo Costa, Boca Grande within 5 miles of the cottage, its owner will have easy access to the best boating, beaches and fishing southwest Forida has to offer. This unit presents an opportunity to enter into an island lifestyle for well under $1m. Property ownership on Useppa Island requires a Resident Membership to Useppa Island Club & Marina. The Club is under new ownership as of late 2024 and the Club facilities are currently undergoing a multi=million-dollar renovation plan. Buyers are responsible for performing their own due diligence with respect to Useppa Island Club & Marina's operating status, fees and policies as they are all subject to change.
