76 N Shore Drive, Anna Maria, FL 34216

Property Description

An income-producing opportunity in the heart of Anna Maria Island. This 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom duplex sits on coveted North Shore — steps from the boutiques, cafés, and galleries of Pine Avenue and minutes from the Gulf's world-famous sugar-white beaches. Blue Lagoon operates as a vacation rental with a proven track record, a loyal returning guest base, and confirmed reservations already booked into 2027. The property features a large heated pool, private outdoor entertaining areas in-unit washers/dryers, and an on-site EV charger. The duplex can be rented as two separate units or opened via an interior connecting door to accommodate larger groups, maximizing both flexibility and revenue potential year-round. Bert Harris Agreement — A Significant Asset This property benefits from a Bert Harris Private Property Rights Agreement with the City of Anna Maria. When the city enacted its vacation rental ordinance limiting all short-term rentals to a maximum occupancy of 8 guests regardless of home size, many property owners successfully filed claims under Florida's Bert J. Harris Jr. Private Property Rights Protection Act, a state law that protects owners when a local government action reduces the value of their property. Through a negotiated settlement, this property secured the right to host up to 12 guests, well above the city's standard cap. This agreement transfers with the property and represents a meaningful competitive and financial advantage that cannot easily be replicated by new purchasers today. A true turnkey investment in one of Florida's most sought-after island destinations.
