Step into a slice of Old Florida charm with this beautifully updated island cottage nestled at the quiet, scenic end of Island Avenue and Janet Street in Matlacha—a vibrant, artsy enclave where mermaids feel right at home and the sunsets paint the sky in watercolor hues. This direct Gulf access gem comes with no bridges, a wide and deep canal, and you e just one minute to open water—perfect for spontaneous boat days or peaceful paddles through mangroves or the Great Calusa Blueway - a 190 mile marked kayak trail - launch your kayak off your dock, and yes, theres a boat lift and dock (with the option to purchase the boat, too!). Inside, this cottage has been lovingly transformed with a clever use of space and style. The kitchen now features a center island perfect for sharing stories over coffee or crafting the catch of the day. Enjoy cool porcelain floors with an Italian Torgenol design, storm-rated doors and windows, updated bathrooms, oversized bedrooms, and a cheerfully epoxied garage floor in bold yellow and green—just begging to be a creative studio or beach toy haven. Take your morning tea under the inviting pergola or watch the birds flutter from your screened-in lanai, where Roseate Spoonbills, ospreys, and doves are your daily audience. And don’t worry—flood barriers have been ordered, adding an extra layer of hurricane protection to this island retreat. Beautifully updated and ready for a new owner. Matlacha is more than a place—it’s a lifestyle full of whimsy, water, and wonder. Come see what makes this magical village and this island home so unforgettable
