Nestled on the serene expanse of North Casey Key, this sprawling 1.5-acre Gulf-to-Bay estate presents an extraordinary opportunity to possess a slice of paradise. From its private white sand beach gracing the azure Gulf of Mexico to the tranquil bay waters, this property encapsulates the epitome of coastal living. Enveloped by majestic oaks and cedar trees, this sanctuary exudes an unblemished "Old Florida" charm, offering a private, idyllic retreat. The main house, a tastefully designed 2-bedroom, 2-bath contemporary dwelling built in the early 1970s, seamlessly blends with its surroundings. Its vintage allure captures breathtaking Gulf and Bay vistas from almost every room, boasting high ceilings, a sun-soaked courtyard, and abundant natural light, awaiting the personal touch of its next owner. Adjacent to the main residence, the 2-bedroom, 2-bath guest house crafted in 2002 complements the panoramic Gulf views with bamboo flooring and Bahama shutters. The ground floor features a versatile bonus room, a full bathroom, and an oversized two-car garage, offering convenience and space during renovations or new construction, as the value is in the land. Spanning over 500 feet in depth, this estate showcases 180 feet of pristine Gulf frontage with a private beach void of public access and approximately 100 feet on the bay. Delight in the newly installed private dock on the bay, offering a gateway to aquatic adventures. Life on the exclusive north end of Casey Key unfolds at a serene, enchanting pace, evident the moment one crosses the historic swing bridge. This Gulf-front haven transcends mere residence; it extends an invitation to immerse oneself in an exclusive island paradise reminiscent of the Caribbean. Imagine the soothing melodies of gentle waves, the allure of shell-strewn shores, playful dolphins frolicking against the canvas of stunning sunsets and starlit skies—a daily symphony of tranquility. For those yearning for a serene coastal lifestyle, this property beckons as a rare opportunity on one of Florida's most coveted barrier islands. Casey Key, spanning 8 miles with winding roads and fewer than 400 single-family homes, embodies seclusion and prestige. Gulf-front owners claim their beaches up to the mean high-water line, ensuring unparalleled privacy. The island's intimate character is preserved, with construction limited to single-family homes. Conveniently situated north of the historic Blackburn Point swing bridge, accessibility to this enchanting island is effortless. Nearby amenities include golf courses, tennis facilities, upscale dining, shopping, medical services, and the nationally acclaimed Pine View School. For those seeking cultural indulgence, downtown Sarasota's vibrant scene is a mere 30-minute drive over the north bridge, offering entertainment, dining, and shopping. Venice Island's charming downtown beckons just 15 minutes away. Easy access to Interstate 75 and the region's private and commercial airports further enhances the convenience of this remarkable locale.
