16791 Sandra St Cedar Key, FL 32625

Wonderful custom-built home on high ground in Cedar Key, Florida. Despite recent storms, no damage was sustained at this house as it stands on high land, is further elevated on concrete pilings, and was solidly built by professional builders and local craftsmen. The home sits on a water-view one-third acre lot on the western edge of the island with spectacular views of the sunset through the woods. Two adjoining one-third acre lots are also available for separate purchase which would provide the buyer with an acre of property standing only 50 feet from the Gulf waters. Cedar Key is an old fishing village located in the northwest or Big Bend area of Florida. It is the second oldest city in the state, has around 700 permanent residents, with many native born Cedar Keyans in that number. The City boasts a wide range of nature-related and water-related activities, numerous great eateries, and a fine selection of galleries and shops. The pace on the island is noticeably laid-back and is intentionally Old Florida. No chain stores here! The property itself is located on the western edge of the island in a quiet residential neighborhood. The floor plan of the house is designed to take advantage of views and breezes, with Gulf waters being viewable from all of the main rooms. The structure is surrounded by 8' wide covered porches all around the house and a large screened back porch adjoins the main living room area, providing for a grand living and entertaining space. The feel is distinctly like living in an elevated tree house! Walking in the front door can be an amazing experience as you witness something almost unheard of in construction these days, all solid heart-of-pine wood beams and custom woodwork of that same rare wood throughout the whole house. No expense was spared when constructing and finishing this unique home, and it comes with all new stainless steel kitchen appliances. Finally, downstairs is the garage/game room with a Brunswick oak pool table and entertainment area, a separate attached workshop, and two covered carport areas. Back yard is fenced for your furry friends. Overall a wonderfully designed and sturdily built home that stands out even among some of the most fabulous homes in Cedar Key. Book your appointment now!
