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 located in Cedar Key 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 saysRelax 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.

I MAY NOT BE FLASHY FROM THE STREET BUT I'M GORGEOUS INSIDE!!! This 3-Bedroom, 2-Bath STILT HOME with ELEVATOR and ground-level 750-sf WORKSHOP & STORAGE AREA is worth a look. The 1.52 Acres includes 0.83 acres with the house and another 0.69 acre lot as buffer to the east. The property extends south into the salt marsh where plush mangroves thrive and support myriad sea critters as the tide comes in and goes out, gradually adding land mass, one grain of sand at a time. Built in 1977, the house originally sat about 6 feet above mean high tide. In 2017, it was elevated to approximately 18 feet above mean high tide and fully renovated with solid wood kitchen cabinets, marble countertops, a custom solid wood pocket door to the utility room-pantry, new walk-in showers with glass doors in both bathrooms and luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout. Talk about a bird's eye view! Look through the treetops as you prepare a meal or as you eat at the dining table or as you visit with friends on the screened porch. Other special features include a whole house water treatment system, a full-size garage door into the storage area, and a portable generator. This lovely home is located slightly more than a mile from downtown Cedar Key, an easy golf cart ride to the restaurants and shops. And you did notice, didn't you? It has an elevator!

Take a look at this fabulous water front home in historic Cedar Key, Florida! Located on a private peninsula, this luxurious home was fully renovated in 2018-2019, and is ready for entertainment, with top-of-the-line Miele appliances, custom wood cabinets and white quartz countertops. With beautiful river-recovered wood floors running throughout the house, it also has wood-grain ceramic tile in both bathrooms. Great care was taken to renovate this home to top-quality standards: All interior doors are special-order solid wood, non-toxic wood sealers were used throughout the house, and oversized fans circulate the air through the open floor plan living area. Renovations included many upgrades: a whole house generator, a new electric panel box, a new roof, a tankless water heater and a whole house reverse-osmosis water treatment system are some of the perks, as well as a beautiful DaVinci glass fireplace with a backlit glass hearth, and a new cargo lift elevator. Extras also include a Miele built-in coffee system, Miele Fridge-Freezer combination with front wood panels, Miele Warming Drawer, Miele Wine Conditioning Unit and both a Miele Speed Oven and Miele Steam Combination Oven. The home is absolutely LOADED with luxuries! Downstairs, the two-bay garage also has a third bay with a workshop/storage area and room for a golf cart and golf cart charger. The garage doors were replaced in 2021 with insulated heavy-duty steel doors with infinity glass windows and electric door openers. The large Kalamazoo hybrid grill and hood on the back water front porch is also included! Cook and dine overlooking the salt marsh and back bay. The private dock running out to the boat house was damaged in Hurricane Helene, and is being conveyed as is. Do some repairs and add a boat lift and you will be ready to zip off for saltwater fun. Sit on the porches and sip your favorite beverage and enjoy the salt breezes and the natural surroundings. The property is a Florida nature wonderland--shaded by sprawling oak trees and other native vegetation. From time to time, you can spot a pair of great horned owls, who are frequent visitors to the area, as well as many ospreys, seagulls and groups of white pelicans and roseate spoonbills. Descriptions fail this spectacular home--you will need to see it for yourself!
