12107 45TH W AVENUE, CORTEZ, FL 34215

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Welcome to Cortez, one of Florida’s last real-deal fishing villages. Around here, the mullet are fresh, the beer is cold, and the boats outnumber cars most days. This block-built, metal-roofed cottage sits just minutes from Anna Maria Island’s sugar sand beaches. You can fish in the morning, hit the beach in the afternoon, and still make it to happy hour without breaking a sweat. Kick back with coffee on your front porch and watch the old-school Florida life roll by—or chill in the bright Florida room while plotting your next fishing trip. A quick stroll gets you to marinas, boatyards, and seafood joints where “catch of the day” actually means caught today. Whether you’re after a full-time pad, a weekend escape, or a money-making vacation rental, this place has you covered. And bonus—last year’s storms only kissed the garage, leaving the living space high and dry. Step back in time, grab your rod, and claim your spot in this salty slice of history.
