About This Home
The Blue Cottage is a coastal mid-century showpiece set along Gulf Harbor’s widest canal, where nearly continuous seawall construction helps preserve depth and water clarity while offering direct, minutes-to-the-Gulf access via the Cocohatchee River. From the moment you enter through a private coco plum arbor, the home unfolds into a meticulously designed waterfront compound complete with a 10-ton sandy beach, extensive paver hardscape, and a dramatic 12’ x 18’ copper trimmed covered wood arbor with ceiling fans, lighting, retractable wall elements, and slatted shutters that can open seamlessly to the outdoors. A full dock with water and electric service, 10,000-pound boat lift, fish cleaning station, storage boxes, and walkway access around the vessel make this an ideal property for serious boaters. A hand-painted fish mural by renowned Florida artist Jared Stinchcomb — known for his work at the Marco Island Historical Museum — creates a one-of-a-kind artistic focal point. Located beside the historic stone coral bait house from Gulf Harbor’s early days as a natural fishing estuary, the setting is rich in authentic Old Florida charm. The interior continues the refined coastal narrative with hand-glazed concrete walls and a remarkable 10-layer continuous poured epoxy floor in sapphire tones, evoking the layered hues of the ocean. The flexible layout includes two bedrooms plus a sun room that could function as a third sleeping area, a spacious primary suite with separate sitting area and dual closets, and a marble tile bath with hand-laid detailing. The kitchen features a restaurant-style stainless steel sink and console, custom concrete dining table, and solid wood cypress cabinetry, all conveying durability and design. Art glass doors and custom carved elements further elevate the aesthetic. Offered fully turnkey with furnishings included, this residence is primed for immediate enjoyment or income production in one of Naples’ few waterfront communities without restrictive rental limitations.
