1208 North Casey Key Road, OSPREY

An exquisite Gulf to Bay property with over 100’ of Beach frontage and 129’ on the boating waters of Little Sarasota Bay. Located on the highly desirable stretch of North Casey Key, rarely do you find the privacy of a 1+ acre property beautifully treed with magnificent old oaks and specimen plants. Lots of yard space, front and back of the home, sets the tone for that feeling of expansiveness. The epitome of casual yet privileged living in an Old Florida home is evident with updated features which retains the charm and character of the ‘50’s. Exposed pecky cypress beams and a Crab Orchard stone and pecky cypress clad fireplace in the Gulf-side living room, yellow heart pine floors, new kitchen elements including granite countertops, new flooring, a buffet with display cabinetry and built-in planning desk and tongue and groove cypress paneling are featured. The family room has great views through French doors to the Bay. A paneled office/sitting room is adjacent. Two bedrooms and updated baths are located on the first level. Additionally, a full bath serves the public spaces. The staircase ushers you to the spacious master suite with a fireplace featuring a tongue and groove cypress mantle. Along with his and her baths there is a spacious walk-in closet and French doors onto the bayside terrace. A bunkroom that sleeps 6 is also located on the 2nd floor. Porches wrap the house and serve as an ideal location for a porch swing. Impact rated windows were added in 2011. The oversized garage accommodates waterfront toys. A new dock has been designed and will soon be in the permit process with Sarasota County. Want to live in an environment of more space offered in the large lots on North Casey and the privacy that accompanies such sites? Enjoy the solitude and slow pace of laid-back island living where there aren’t traffic lights or commercial development, yet experience easy access to the mainland’s conveniences, shops and restaurants.
