16791 Sandra St, Cedar Key, FL 32625 - Levy County

Elevation! Elevation! Elevation! If you have ever thought about purchasing a home on the quaint island of Cedar Key, FL, now is a great time to move those dreams forward. The home included here stands at a ground level elevation of 13 feet and sits atop concrete pillars another 9 feet high. The result provides storm protection not common on the island and amazing sunrise and sunset views coveted by all. 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, and two spacious bedrooms and baths. The rear of the great room has an inviting huge screened-in porch leading to the bubbling jacuzzi, with wide covered porches that surround the entire house and which lead to each of the three 12 foot wide sliding glass doors into the main level rooms. The combined effect is like living in a breezy treehouse, with electricity! with air conditioning! with a hot tub! At ground level is the garage/gameroom, a separate attached workshop, and two covered carports. Back yard is fenced for the furry friends. Overall, a wonderfully designed and sturdily built home that stands out even among some of the most fabulous homes in Cedar Key. Outside, the property is very unique in that it contains three 1/3 acre platted and buildable lots, one containing the house, with the front lot coming about 50 feet from the Gulf. Those final feet are owned by the City of Cedar Key, are zoned as conservation, and thus guarantee water views into perpetuity. The property could be subdivided back into individual lots, but is being presented as one parcel including the home. Many possibilities here. Cedar Key itself is a collection of small islands located north of Tampa and south of Tallahassee, right on the Gulf. An old fishing village originally, it is now is a mix of native Cedar Keyans, clam and oyster farmers, retirees, and business owners totally about 800 residents. The island is known for its nature-related and water-related activities, fabulous eateries, and friendly folks from many places. The pace is noticeably and intentionally laid-back Old Florida. Come tour this property and bring your dreams home!
