Description
Direct Gulf-front. Direct beach access. Inside the gates of The Cottages at Barefoot — one of Southwest Florida's most private coastal addresses, where fifteen residences share a single stretch of white sand. This is one of them. From its westward orientation, the horizon belongs to it. Three stories of light-filled coastal living rise above the beach, served by a private in-residence elevator. The main living level opens to the Gulf through walls of floor-to-ceiling glass that pull the ocean into the room. A fireplace anchors the great room. Tray ceilings, custom built-in cabinetry, and a wet bar with mirrored backsplash, glass-front display, and integrated wine rack carry the level of finish through the principal entertaining spaces. Bay windows with built-in window seats frame the water from multiple vantage points. Arched display niches and custom architectural detail elevate the formal dining room. A gourmet kitchen delivers stainless appliances, white cabinetry with decorative hardware, an integrated desk station, and recessed lighting throughout. Beyond the main level, a beamed-ceiling solarium opens to full ocean exposure and houses an in-room spa — the kind of private retreat that defines this category of home. The primary suite delivers marble countertops, dual undermount sinks, and a glass-enclosed rainfall shower. A dedicated home office is finished with extensive custom built-ins. Four bedrooms in total, plus a den, family room, dedicated laundry, and screened lanai. 2, 962 square feet of living area; 4, 156 total under roof. Construction is concrete block with stucco exterior and a tile roof — built for life on the Gulf. Hurricane shutters. Double-hung windows. Two-single car attached garage opens onto a paver drive framed by mature palms. The paver patio walks directly onto the sand. Optional membership is available to The Club at Barefoot Beach— resort-style pool, oceanfront dining, beachfront fire pit lounge, and tennis. The Cottages at Barefoot is a fifteen-unit condominium community with architectural standards, sidewalks, and streetlights. Pets welcomed with approval. Barefoot Beach is guard-gated, low-density, and bordered to the south by a state preserve. Direct Gulf-front opportunities inside this gate are rare.

Everything a full-service brokerage does to make your home stand out — for a 1% commission.
1
Photo Enhancement
Professional editing brings every photo to life — balanced exposure, corrected color, bright skies, and rich, true-to-life detail, finished to a magazine standard. Those first images decide whether a buyer clicks through or scrolls past. We make sure yours stop the scroll.
2
Drone Photography
Aerial photography captures the lot, the rooflines, the water or golf views, and the surrounding neighborhood. For waterfront, golf course, and acreage properties, drone imagery is often the deciding factor — showcasing proximity to the Gulf, canal access, or a private setting in a single frame.
3
Virtual Staging
Empty rooms are digitally furnished with tasteful, realistic furniture and decor, helping buyers picture themselves in the space. Staged homes consistently sell faster and for more, and virtual staging delivers that advantage at a fraction of the cost of physical staging. We tailor each room to the buyer most likely to purchase.
4
3D Virtual Tours
Immersive, interactive walkthroughs let buyers explore every room on their own time, from anywhere in the country. With a true sense of layout, flow, and scale, a 3D tour pre-qualifies interest. For our many Northeast clients moving to Southwest Florida, it's often the tool that lets them decide on a home they've never set foot in.
5
Cinematic Storytelling
Professionally produced video tours walk buyers through the home and the lifestyle around it. We craft each video as a story — pacing the reveal of key spaces, highlighting the features buyers care about most, and capturing the feel of the home. This is the content that gets shared, saved, and remembered, extending your listing's reach far beyond the MLS.
6
Luxury Presentation
Your home is presented with the polish high-end buyers expect — refined layouts, premium imagery, and placement built to stand out. From the headline copy to the order of the photos, every detail is intentional, designed to communicate value and justify your asking price. For luxury and estate properties we expand into print exposure, magazine features, and dedicated campaigns.
