Description

This beautiful island home sits high and dry, away from flood waters, on plenty of land! The home and separate entry studio apartment, joined by open decks and an elevated walkway, are nestled perfectly in the middle of TWO superior wooded lots. Sit on your porches or deck and be enveloped by exquisite gardens on all sides. With a separate spot for guests--you WILL get guests, once you buy a home on a Florida island--they will have a nice private spot of their own to enjoy! The separate entry studio suite is like heaven, surrounded by the "secret garden" landscape. The cottage has been a good income-producing vacation rental, too, if you don't want to reserve it exclusively for your guests! The split-level home has four sets of French doors opening to the beautiful landscape. Fireplaces on two levels provide a nice cozy spot to unwind should we get a chilly winter night. The third bedroom in the main house is currently used as a den, but would make a great separate dining room, as well. The home has porches galore--on two different levels, and back and front. Sit and sip your lemonade and enjoy the great saltwater view across the street. It's a rare win-win to enjoy a water view while your home is safely outside the flood zone! With an attached garage and a nice long rock driveway, you'll have plenty of room for your cars, golf cart, boat or RV. There is even an underground storm shelter, built well out of the flood zone--just in case you want extra protection. Check it out--it is one of a kind! Just a quick golf cart ride will get you to downtown Cedar Key, where you can enjoy treats from the restaurants, bars, coffee shops and bakery. Drop in on a few of the shops and galleries if you want to pick up a gift. Stop by the library, City Park and beach, or the Community Garden, or just ride through the Historic District and chat with the local folks. Cedar Key is "Old Florida" at its finest--somehow unspoiled, and escaping big development and the trials that come with it. It's time you began your new chapter--island life!Show Description
