Description

Take in the incredible Gulf view from high on the hill! No flood insurance required on this Cracker home in the heart of downtown on 2 lots. Step back in time--virtually unchanged since the 1960s, this family estate of many decades has so much character! Built simply but sturdily, there are high ceilings, original windows, and the wood floors throughout in pristine, original condition. Screened porch off the kitchen doubles as a second dining room, ready for card playing, reading, or just shooting the breeze. Bedrooms are nice size, both with closets. Bathroom features a clawfoot tub and historic hexagonal floor tiles. Catch the amazing Gulf breezes from your rocker on the screened front porch--you'll never want to leave The Joy Cottage!
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

    "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."
