Property Description
Weekly rate shown, please see description for detailed pricing. Just moments from the sandy Gulf shoreline and a short walk to the charming streets of Boca Grande's Historic District, Gilchrist Manor has an unforgettable setting for your island escape. This grand 6-bedroom, 5-bath coastal estate blends timeless architecture with modern updates, comfortably accommodating up to 12 guests in refined style. The primary suite showcases a king bed and spa-like en suite bath, while three additional bedrooms-each with a queen bed-give serene retreats filled with natural light. Two additional bedrooms feature twin bunk beds, creating a playful and convenient setup for younger guests. Throughout the home, thoughtful updates balance historic charm with modern comfort, highlighted by the fully appointed kitchen with butcher block countertops, premium appliances, and space designed for effortless entertaining. A formal dining room invites memorable gatherings, while the enclosed sunroom, complete with air conditioning, offers a tranquil spot to unwind with a book, sip morning coffee, or enjoy views of the lush grounds. A front porch and expansive yard provide more places to relax, whether hosting sunset cocktails or savoring a barbecue beneath swaying palms. Boca Grande itself is the epitome of island elegance. From Gilchrist Manor, you are just steps from pristine beaches where turquoise waters meet seven miles of powder-soft sand. Stroll into town to discover boutique shops, fine dining, and art galleries, or explore the island by golf cart or bicycle. Fishing, boating, golf, and tennis are all within easy reach, while spectacular Gulf sunsets create the perfect close to each day. For larger gatherings, Gilchrist Manor is one of three residences on this historic estate, which also includes the Fish House and Coastal Chic. Each may be rented individually or together to accommodate extended groups. Additional amenities include Wi-Fi, smart TVs, air conditioning, a washer and dryer, and concierge services to ensure every detail of your stay is seamless. Gilchrist Manor is more than a vacation home-it's a piece of Boca Grande history reimagined for modern luxury living, offering the perfect balance of elegance, comfort, and island charm.
