Property Description
Welcome to Sunkissed Cottage — Your Ultimate Beach Hideaway in Stunning Fort Myers Beach!
It's all about location, location, location—and Sunkissed Cottage delivers. Just a short stroll from the sugar-white sands of Fort Myers Beach, this charming 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom waterfront retreat is a perfect blend of comfort, style, and coastal elegance. Nestled on a peaceful canal, this home offers a relaxed, resort-like atmosphere with every amenity you need to embrace Florida's laid-back lifestyle.
Step through the inviting entryway with views straight through to the backyard oasis, and you're immediately welcomed into a bright, open floor plan. The spacious living and dining areas flow seamlessly into a beautifully renovated kitchen, complete with crisp white cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a light blue tile backsplash that evokes the tranquility of the sea. Natural light pours into the adjoining family room, where panoramic views of the pool and canal create a warm, breezy vibe. Sliding glass doors lead directly out to the expansive outdoor living area, making indoor-outdoor living effortless.
Out back, your private paradise awaits. Enjoy the heated pool and spa, dine al fresco on the oversized paver patio, sip sunset cocktails under the re-thatched tiki hut, or head to your private dock equipped with a 10,000 lb boat lift. With direct Gulf access and a public boat ramp just down the street, this property is truly a boater's dream. Whether you're fishing off the dock, relaxing in the sun, or boating to nearby destinations like Sanibel, Captiva, or waterfront restaurants, adventure is always just steps away.
Inside, the home features two distinct living areas and flexible sleeping arrangements ideal for families or guests. The primary suite includes a king-size bed, while the second bedroom comfortably fits a queen and twin. A sleeper sofa in the Florida Room allows the home to accommodate up to six guests with ease. Beach gear including chairs, towels, an umbrella, and a wagon is provided to make every beach day a breeze.
Thoughtfully and thoroughly remodeled after Hurricane Ian, the home boasts all-new flooring, insulation, drywall, baseboards, appliances, cabinets, bathrooms, electrical and plumbing systems, new HVAC, gas tankless hot water heater, and brand-new pool equipment added in 2024. There is a buried 250 gallon propane tank in the front yard connected to the gas pool heater and instant on tankless gas water heater. The house is fully equipped with Nest learning thermostat and Nest security camera system. Pool equipment is fully automated with remote access. The tiki hut was re-thatched in 2022 and remains a favorite spot to unwind. Offered with an optional turnkey package—including furnishings, kitchenware, and more—this home is fully prepared for immediate enjoyment or short-term rental success.
With strong bookings already in place for the remainder of 2025 and into 2026, Sunkissed Cottage stands as a proven income-producing gem with a rich rental history. Whether you're looking for your own slice of paradise, a lucrative investment, or both, this lovingly maintained home—treasured by the same owners for over 21 years—offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the very best of Southwest Florida living. Lounge by the pool, fish off the dock, soak in the spa, or wander just down the street to the beach. At Sunkissed Cottage, every day feels like a vacation.
