Are you looking to build your private hideaway on a lush tropical island? Do you dream of tranquility, the laid back lifestyle of true "Old Florida", and a paradise to call your own? Welcome to this incredible 100x100 lot on Little Gasparilla Island, poised for stunning views. Little Gasparilla is a bridgeless tropical barrier Island located just off the Southwest Coast of Florida's Cape Haze. Only accessible by boat or water taxi, it's situated between Sarasota and Ft. Myers at the mouth of Charlotte Harbor. Here you can have it all. Fish the day away for snook, redfish, grouper and more. Take your boat out and visit neighboring islands, or search for shells on the pristine 7 mile beach, which is visited in summer months by rare sea turtles and shorebirds. You've found the perfect place for shelling, fishing, relaxing, swimming, and viewing spectacular sunsets. This property is conveniently located a short walk down a sandy path that leads to the beach and is close to the dock that serves the community. Best of all, the home on the adjacent property is also for sale (MLS# D6103200). Buy both properties and you can live there while you build your dream home next door, then use it as a guesthouse or create a family compound. Transport is by golf cart or foot on Little Gasparilla, where the roads are made of sand and there's not a high rise or traffic light to be found. Be one of the lucky owners to experience the laid back lifestyle of true "Old Florida".
