109 Useppa Island $1,750,000

Cayo Costa cottage is one of the best examples of the early 1900s development and history of Useppa Island. Built in 1912, the home was purchased in 1978 by the ownership and completely renovated, with an eye to conserving the classic features. Again in 2003, the home was renovated, a second-floor primary suite added, and home brought up to code about structural integrity and windstorm resistance. First-floor layout includes three bedrooms with private baths, kitchen, pantry and laundry. Directly on the Pink Path and overlooking Useppa beach and Pine Island Sound, it is proximate to the main marina, Tarpon Bar and the island fitness center. Just a couple hundred feet south along the path is the Collier Inn restaurant, bar and hotel. Adjacent amenities include the community swimming pool, spa, tennis and bocce courts, and the soon-to-be renovated croquet court.
