#504 “Barefoot Cottage” on Useppa Island is a thoughtfully renovated villa that seamlessly blends classic island architecture with fresh, coastal finishes. Located along the western shoreline of this private, members-only island, the residence enjoys sweeping water views across the Intracoastal Waterway to Charlotte Harbor, with Gasparilla Island and iconic Boca Grande Pass visible in the distance. A neighborhood community dock is just steps away, providing convenient access to world-class boating, fishing, and the pristine beaches of Southwest Florida. Ownership includes the cost-free right to dock a boat up to 24 feet, offering effortless direct water access. The home is surrounded by a spacious open deck, newly replaced in 2023, complete with updated handrails and durable 2x6 skirting enclosing the lower storage crawlspace. Remote-operated canvas awnings provide shade when desired while remaining discreet when retracted. A waterside ramp leads to the mangrove shoreline, enhancing the home’s connection to its natural surroundings. Inside, the front entry opens to an inviting open-concept kitchen and living area, finished in clean coastal style. A wall of sliding glass doors frames uninterrupted water views and is protected by roll-down storm screens. The first floor was comprehensively renovated in 2022, featuring new flooring, interior lighting, ceiling fans, and fresh paint throughout. The kitchen was fully updated with new refrigerator, dishwasher, stove, and microwave, along with a new LG washer and dryer. The primary bedroom is conveniently located on the main level, offering a spacious en-suite bath and ample closet storage. Major system upgrades include a new HVAC system, an on-demand propane water heater, and a newly installed underground 500-gallon propane tank, ready to support a future generator. The entire lower level has been spray-foam insulated beneath the floors, encapsulating electrical wiring and delivering noticeable energy efficiency. Upstairs, the west-facing loft-style bedroom overlooks the living area and opens through impact-rated sliding doors to a private balcony with elevated views of the water and surrounding islands. An additional east-facing guest room offers flexible use as a children’s sleeping area, home office, or exercise room, with a shared bath conveniently located between the two rooms. “Barefoot Cottage” offers a combination of timeless island character, thoughtful modern upgrades, and proven resilience—all within the exclusive setting of Useppa Island. With panoramic water views, direct boating access, and a level of care that allows for immediate enjoyment rather than ongoing projects, this home is ideally suited for those seeking a refined yet effortless coastal retreat. Whether envisioned as a peaceful getaway or a legacy island residence, Barefoot Cottage stands ready to be enjoyed from day one.
