Jeff Burns stated, ‘Few places in Florida offer the tropical tranquility of Captiva and even fewer opportunities exist to own a property as unique as Jensen’s Twin Palm Cottages and Marina. The chance to own an acre of land, on the bay, in the heart of Captiva is rare, let alone a 35-slip marina with rental cottages.’
Located in the heart of Captiva’s Village area, the historic property combines old-world Florida charm with modern-day convenience, making Jensen’s Twin Palm Cottages and Marina a unique opportunity for a successful marina business or for use as a private family or company retreat.
Featuring 35 boat slips and 14 quaint cottages, Jensen’s has been a go-to destination for generations of vacationers and locals alike seeking to cast their lines from the private dock overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway, surrounded by pelicans, dolphins, and manatees.
The resort and marina’s features include:
More than an acre-sized lot on the Intracoastal Waterway
170-feet of water frontage
35-slip marina, including a fuel dock and ship store
14 guest residences, ranging from studios to two-bedroom/two-bathroom cottages
Judy Green, CEO, Premier Sotheby’s International Realty summarized the uniqueness of this historic listing. ‘Jensen’s Twin Palm Marina and Cottages is very iconic to Captiva and a prime opportunity for a real estate investor to own a piece of history and a turn-key business.’”
