3014 AVENUE E, Holmes Beach, FL

Just steps from beach access, this exceptional Holmes Beach residence captures close up, unobstructed Gulf views that become part of everyday life. Open the doors and hear the waves rolling in, spend afternoons with your toes in the sand, and watch the sun disappear over the Gulf from your own west facing balcony. Built in 2015, this elevated residence feels fresh, sophisticated and effortlessly coastal. Professionally designed and offered furnished, the interiors are filled with natural light and thoughtfully finished with high ceilings, plantation shutters and newer flooring. Expansive windows throughout frame breathtaking views while bringing the beauty of the island indoors. Fresh interior and exterior paint adds to the beautifully maintained, move-in-ready feel. The kitchen sits at the heart of the home, anchored by an exceptionally large island designed for gathering. Thoughtfully integrated appliances, including a concealed refrigerator, wet bar with beverage fridge, and statement range hood, preserve the clean aesthetic, while abundant cabinetry and storage make the space as functional as it is beautiful. The open living areas flow naturally toward the outdoors, allowing the Gulf, sunlight and island breezes to remain part of the experience. Outdoor living is just as extraordinary. East and west-facing balconies let you follow the sun throughout the day, while the expansive wraparound west-facing balcony offers a front row seat to spectacular Gulf sunsets. Below, a fully fenced backyard creates a private tropical oasis centered around the pool and spa, offering a secluded place to swim, entertain or unwind after a day at the beach. Two private ensuite bedrooms and a private elevator add another layer of comfort and ease, while the home's thoughtful design makes it equally suited to quiet escapes and gathering with family and friends. Perhaps the greatest luxury is how little you need your car. Walk to the beach, wander to local restaurants and shops, or explore the island by bike or golf cart. In a place that has managed to preserve its character while so much of Florida has grown around it, this home offers something increasingly rare: elevated island living without losing the charm that makes Anna Maria Island so special.
