Located at 1175 Little Court in the Englewood Shores section of Manasota Key, the property includes deeded beach access points, with the south end location placing you near Stump Pass Beach State Park. The area is known for its quiet shoreline, natural surroundings, and relaxed atmosphere, with convenient access to boating, fishing, and waterfront dining, along with the ease of a quick golf cart ride to several local restaurants and bars offering live entertainment. Manasota Key itself has long been appreciated for its Old Florida character, where unspoiled stretches of beach, abundant wildlife, and a slower pace of life have been preserved over time, creating a setting that continues to feel authentic, laid back, and connected to the natural beauty of the Gulf Coast.
