Property Description
THE ISLAND. Cedar Key is an old fishing village located in the northwest part of Florida, 125 miles north of Tampa and 150 miles from Tallahassee, and is situated right on the Gulf of Mexico. The population of permanent residents hovers around 700, many native born Cedar Keyans. The city is the second oldest in the state behind St. Augustine, and boasts of incredible nature-related and water-related activities, fabulous eateries, and friendly folks from all over the country. The pace is noticeably and intentionally laid-back Old Florida.
THE PROPERTY. The parcel for sale is very unique as it contains three 1/3 acre platted and buildable lots, one containing the house, and consists of three of the four lots on the entire dead-end street. The property ends within 50' of the Gulf of Mexico at one corner of the full acre plot. Privacy is ensured because of its location in a quiet residential neighborhood, and Gulf of Mexico water views are permanently protected inasmuch as the City owns the Conservation Zoned property in front of this parcel before you get to navigable waters of the Gulf. The property could be subdivided back into individual lots, but is being presented as one parcel plus the home. Many possibilities here.
THE HOUSE. The house sits well back from the street at a ground level elevation of 13 feet providing storm protection not commonly found on the island. In addition, the structure is elevated another 9 feet on concrete block pillars guaranteeing amazing views and a breezy lifestyle enhanced by the wide covered porches that surround the entire house. Built in 1988 by experienced builders and local craftsmen, the house has custom solid woodwork throughout, soaring vaulted heart-pine beams in the living area, two spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, plus a laundry room upstairs and additional laundry area downstairs. The back of the house has a fabulous 16' X 34' floor to ceiling screened porch, with jacuzzi, that adjoins the living area. Each of the three main rooms of the house, two bedrooms and the great room, contain 12' sliding glass doors that provide access to the covered porches, giving you the distinct feeling of living in an elevated tree house. With air conditioning! With electricity! With a hot tub! Finally, at ground level is the garage/gameroom, a separate attached workshop, and two covered carports. Back yard is fenced for the furry friends. A wonderfully designed and sturdily built home that stands out even among some of the most fabulous homes in Cedar Key.
