A rare offering comes to market! Experience the quintessential Marco Island waterfront lifestyle in this meticulously maintained, turnkey three-bedroom, two-bath residence nestled in the heart of paradise. Featuring 99 feet of sweeping water frontage, a private dock and boat lift with Gulf access via two bridges, and a highly coveted western exposure for premier sunset views, all sitting atop an oversized .23-acre lot within a quiet, desirable cul-de-sac location. Thoughtfully updated with more than $130,000 in recent improvements, including a new tile roof, A/C and heating system, paver terrace, hurricane-rated garage door, PEX plumbing, pool heater and pump, gutters, water heater, and freshly painted exterior. For nearly a decade, this property has stood as one of Marco Island's most sought-after vacation rentals, generating over $100,000 in historical annual income with more than $51,000 in future Airbnb and VRBO bookings already in place, offering the new owner the opportunity to inherit built-in rental momentum from day one at their discretion. Inside the home, you’re greeted by the spacious, open-concept layout which seamlessly connects the indoor and outdoor areas for effortless coastal living. The well-appointed kitchen looks out onto the water and showcases stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and a breakfast bar, while the generous, airy living room and dining area all flow beneath vaulted ceilings with recessed lighting. Two sets of impact-rated French doors with expansive west-facing windows frame the water and bathe the home with natural light, leading out to the screened lanai and heated pool and giving a front-row seat to the unforgettable ambient backdrop of island sunsets into the evening. Beyond, a large outdoor paver terrace awaits, perfect for suntanning, grilling, and entertaining. The primary suite serves as its own retreat, complete with tranquil water views, a walk-in closet, sliding doors opening directly onto the lanai, and an en suite bath finished with a dual-sink vanity, full-width mirror, and granite countertops. The split-bedroom floor plan places two additional bedrooms and a secondary bath on the opposite wing from the primary suite, offering added privacy for family or guests. A truly exceptional waterfront offering, 478 Persian is a rare, turnkey opportunity for a full-time residence, a seasonal escape, or a continued high-performing rental investment, all with convenient access to the world-class boating, fine dining, boutique shopping, and pristine Gulf beaches that define Marco Island as a renowned Southwest Florida gem.
