About this property

Heart of Matlacha Studio-remodeled! NEW

It's rare to find a place that's both historic and one-of-a-kind. It’s even rarer to find a place that is historic, unique, romantic, and on a wildlife marine reserve. This listing is two updated historical fishing cottage apartments from the days when the Matlacha Pass Marine Reserve was a booming fishery. This historic cottage provides beautiful views, open water breezes and the best feature-our sunsets falling into nature!
