Property Description

Resilience. Romance. Rarity. Excitement. History.... Once in a great while, something truly remarkable emerges—something so rare and special, it's reserved for only a select few. This is one of those moments. Welcome to a captivating beach estate that embodies over a century of history, elegance, and coastal charm. Originally constructed in 1912 as part of the legendary Tarpon Inn Resort on Useppa Island—an ambitious project by none other than Barron G. Collier—this historic cottage has journeyed through time. In 1948, it found its forever home atop a majestic dune on Captiva Island's prestigious Gold Coast, relocated by famed philanthropist and big-game hunter Col. Francis T. Colby. With 131 feet of unspoiled Gulf frontage, the high ridge setting is as rare as it is stunning. Today, the story continues with the addition of a newly built, exquisitely designed guest house—a modern architectural marvel crafted by Benchmark Construction and visionary - acclaimed Architect and Designer Joyce Owens of AJO Architecture & Designs. This waterfront retreat features two thoughtfully designed guest areas, offering privacy, comfort, and a seamless blend of indoor-outdoor living. Every inch of this estate, from the historic main cottage to the contemporary guest residence, is infused with luxury, elegance, and intention. Together, they create the ultimate Gulf-front retreat—a legacy property meant to be treasured for generations. This is more than a home. It's a timeless experience, a rare blend of old-world charm and modern sophistication. A truly unmatched offering on Florida's West Coast—impossible to replicate, unforgettable to experience.
