Property Description
WHY DREAM OF A VACATION ON THE
COAST OF FLORIDA WHEN YOU CAN OWN A PIECE OF PARADISE
If you’ve been considering a home
in the Sunshine State of Florida this is the perfect time to turn that dream
into reality.
This exceptional property was
custom constructed in 1988 by skilled local builders and craftsmen. The home
showcases solid woodwork throughout and dramatic vaulted heart-pine beams that
anchor the main living area. It offers two generously sized bedrooms and two
baths designed for comfort and functionality.
Expansive covered porches wrap
around the entire home, providing access to three 12-foot sliding glass doors
that flood the interior with natural light and coastal breezes. You’ll feel
like you are in a glamorous, well-appointed treehouse that says…Relax and enjoy
life! Bubbling jacuzzi time is a bonus.
On the ground level, you’ll find
a versatile garage/game room, an attached workshop, and two covered carports.
The fenced backyard offers a safe haven for pets.
This thoughtfully designed and
solidly constructed residence stands out even among the most impressive homes
in Cedar Key. Adding to its appeal, the property includes three platted and
buildable 1/3-acre lots. One lot holds the home, while the front lot extends to
within approximately 50 feet of the Gulf. Those final feet are owned by the
City of Cedar Key and designated as conservation land—ensuring protected water
views for generations to come. While the property could be subdivided into
separate parcels, it is currently offered as one expansive homesite, presenting
endless possibilities.
This extraordinary property
boasts a main living elevation of 13 feet above sea level, supported by
substantial concrete pillars rising an additional 9 feet. The result? Superior
storm protection—rare for the island—and breathtaking sunrise and sunset views
that never disappoint.
Cedar Key itself is a cluster of
small islands along the Gulf Coast, north of Tampa and south of Tallahassee.
Once a historic fishing village, it is now home to roughly 800 residents—a blend of longtime locals, clam and oyster
farmers, retirees, and small business owners. The island is beloved for its
natural beauty, water activities, outstanding local restaurants, and welcoming
community. Your friends can fly in for lunch utilizing the community’s 2303
foot asphalt runway, take time to kayak with the dolphins, reserve a seat for a
sunset boat tour, explore the many islands. There is a reason UF set up a
biological research station in the fascinating town. Life here moves at a
deliberately relaxed, Old Florida pace.
Come experience this rare, one-of-a-kind
property—and bring your dreams home.
