524 SPRING AVENUE

Set in the heart of Anna Maria, this elevated 3BD/2BA home holds one of the island's most enviable addresses — around the corner to the Anna Maria City Pier and steps from the bay. Celebrated dining, open water, and the island's unhurried rhythm are all right outside the door. Inside, an open living and kitchen area, generous deck space, and a two-car garage offer a solid canvas. Update it, reimagine it, or start fresh — the potential here is wide open. Better still, the home sits in a short-term rental zone, so it can earn its keep between your own stays. Then step outside, where the Anna Maria lifestyle takes over: mornings on the beach, afternoons cruising the island by bike or golf cart, evenings fishing the pier or watching the sun drop into the Gulf. Locally loved shops and restaurants sit just down the street. Location, rental potential, and a lifestyle people rearrange their lives for. Bring your vision.
