Description

Quick question before you read on…. Are you here for business, pleasure or a little of both? We ask because 517 Blue Heron is built and ready for all of the above! We challenge you to find a better performing asset on the island which can provide you actual rental history and income and NOT a management company’s sales pitch of pro-forma capability. Welcome to a truly rare waterfront gem on Anna Maria Island. This high-performing short-term rental generates nearly $200K annually while doubling as the perfect vacation retreat for you personally. Located on spacious open water—far superior to a canal—this 4-bed, 4-bath, 3,000+ sq. ft. home offers unparalleled water views and a 12,000 lb boat lift with dock (currently holding a 27’ center console) with no bridges between you and open water. Can you picture starting your morning off with a sunrise paddle board session? The resort-style outdoor spaces feature a heated pool, hot tub, grill, and covered dining area, all tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac with no road noise. Enjoy the charm of Old Florida with modern luxury and the best of both investment and lifestyle in this island paradise!
