Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Anna Maria
Florida is a hard place to beat for yearround warm weather. The Gulf Coast's white sand beaches are highly-regarded and known worldwide for their beauty. Anna Maria is unique because it is not built-up like many other areas of Florida. It is relaxed and friendly. We chose the house because it is on the canal allowing access to various water activities and is close to the beach.
The Unique Benefits of this House
You can choose to never leave the house and have a wonderful vacation swimming, fishing and enjoying the view. You can walk to most restaurants in the area or take the free trolley. If you want an active vacation you can jet ski, water ski, sail, parasail, kayak, deep sea fish, bike, golf, swim, tennis, shuffleboard, paddle surf all within 5 miles of the house. You can go further a field for theatre (Sarasota)or theme parks (Busch Gardens in Tampa).
If you have to work while on vacation, the house is fully equipped with a computer, fax/scanner/printer, and high speed wireless broadband. The post office is within walking distance if you need to send items. Free phone service is provided and includes low cost international service as well.
