About this House

Warning: May Cause an Uncontrollable Urge to Move to Cedar Key! Cute, quirky, and full of Old Florida charm, this 1949 Florida Cracker-style cottage is ready for someone who prefers salty air, flip-flops, and a slower pace of life. With 3 bedrooms and 1 bath, there's plenty of room for family and friends. Kick back in the cozy living room, gather around the table in the dining room, or enjoy your morning coffee and plan the day's adventures from the sunroom. The best part? It's being sold fully furnished! That means less time moving furniture and more time settling into the Cedar Key lifestyle. Bring your clothes, your fishing poles, and your sense of adventure. Looking for a full-time home, weekend hideaway, or potential seasonal rental? This hideaway on the Back Bayou gives you options — along with plenty of personality you just don't find in cookie-cutter homes. Come for the cottage. Stay for the sunsets, seafood, fishing, salty breezes, and wonderfully laid-back way of life. Because sometimes the best upgrade isn't a bigger house it's a slower life in Cedar Key.

    "Easy commute to work 5 miles away. School zone is the only slow down when in session. Golf cart friendly community, so sometimes your commute may be slowed if you are behind a golf cart."

    "Long one road in one road out. Very little traffic with no curves. Straight as a gun barrel. One gas station about half way through the journey."

    "I have lived here for over 34 years - my entire life - with an occassional move; I always come back. It's a great place to live and raise a family, retire, or just as a getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city. Cedar Key is a charming fishing village and haven for artists of all types. We have an excellent public school educating students from Pre-K to 12th grade. Cedar Key School is currently rated an A school - it feels more like a private school than public. Also, I have always had a sense of safety in our community; it's a place where some people still don't lock their doors. I love our town and the lovely people who live here!"

    "CK is not built up like so much of the Gulf Coast of Florida. It's peaceful but there are some things to do (especially for the outdoors type of person). It's a long way to the WalMart for shopping and some things you take for granted in the cities aren't readily available. If you're a fisherman, a nature lover or a home body this a a great place. If you crave the night life then, for you, this is probably a weekend visit kind of place."
