Welcome to Molly's Cottage, a charming coastal retreat in St. Joe Beach offering buyers the flexibility of a personal beach getaway, full-time residence, or an already-established short-term rental opportunity. This 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath cottage sleeps up to six and has recently entered the vacation-rental market, already earning 5-star guest reviews and providing a valuable head start for a buyer interested in STR income potential. Designed for relaxed coastal living, the property features a spacious screened porch, covered outdoor entertaining area, outdoor shower, tropical landscaping, raised garden beds, workshop/storage space and a dedicated covered golf-cart pavilion. A golf cart currently serves the property, making trips to the beach and around the community part of the laid-back St. Joe Beach lifestyle. For an investor, much of the groundwork associated with launching a vacation rental has already been completed. The cottage has been furnished and equipped for guests, professionally presented on major vacation-rental platforms and has begun developing a 5-star rental history. This provides a prospective buyer an opportunity to evaluate an operating STR concept rather than beginning with an empty property and the expense and time associated with a complete rental setup. The property's appeal also extends beyond nightly vacation rentals. Its location and comfortable residential layout may offer potential for seasonal/snowbird occupancy, longer stays or a combination of owner use and rental income, subject to applicable regulations and buyer verification. Whether you're looking for a coastal property of your own or exploring an income-producing investment near the Gulf, Molly's Cottage offers something increasingly valuable: a property that's already been put to work "” and guests are responding.
