Own a unique piece of Florida history in the heart of Paradise Bay! This "cute as a button" cottage is the only stick-built home in the community and famously served as the summer retreat for a Barnum & Bailey circus performer. Featuring extraordinary curb appeal with custom-painted shutters by a local artist, this home perfectly blends vintage charm with modern, move-in-ready updates. The interior boasts an airy open-concept layout with 8-foot ceilings, coastal pastel tones, and crisp white wainscoting. The decorative epoxy-coated cement floors are as beautiful as they are easy to maintain. The efficient kitchen features white upper cabinetry and stainless steel fixtures, while the bathroom offers a walk-in shower with sliding doors and a dedicated laundry closet (hookups ready for an apartment-size stackable). Recent upgrades include: 2025-New bathroom sink/cabinet, hot water heater, ceiling fans, and stainless fixtures. 2024-New decorative epoxy floor coating. 2023-New 8x5 aluminum storage shed. Extras: Off-street parking for 2 cars and approval in place for an unattached front deck.

Residents enjoy a massive heated pool and spa, fitness center, library, and a unique community woodworking shop. Stay active with pickleball, shuffleboard, bocce, and cornhole tournaments, or enjoy a sunset at the waterfront gazebos. For water lovers, the community offers a private boat ramp and a 97-slip marina (slips available via waitlist). All this is located just minutes from the world-class beaches of Anna Maria Island and historic Cortez Village. Numerous shops and restaurants are minutes away! Sold "As-Is."
