Property Description

Authentic Old Florida Waterfront LivingSome homes impress you. Others invite you to slow down, breathe deeply and imagine a different way of living. Tucked away on the tranquil shores of Terra Ceia Island, this extraordinary waterfront estate encompasses approximately 1.5 acres with a beautifully restored and thoughtfully updated bayfront residence, a separate guest home and a setting that feels worlds away from everyday life. Surrounded by the rich history and lore of Miguel Bay and Terra Ceia Island, mature native landscaping and panoramic water views, the property offers a rare sense of privacy while remaining conveniently located between St. Petersburg, Bradenton and Sarasota. Originally the homesite of one of the founders of Miguel Bay, this remarkable property is woven into the story of one of Florida's oldest waterfront communities. For generations, Terra Ceia has been treasured for its quiet roads, towering oaks, spectacular sunsets, abundant wildlife and timeless Old Florida character-a place where neighbors wave, dolphins frequently visit the shoreline and life naturally slows to the rhythm of the tides. Designed for gathering, the estate is ideal for multi-generational living, extended family, frequent guests or anyone seeking the flexibility of two independent residences. Whether hosting holiday celebrations, welcoming visitors for a weekend on the water or simply enjoying peaceful evenings by the pool, every space has been thoughtfully designed to bring people together. Outdoor living defines the experience. Spend mornings on the dock watching dolphins play in Miguel Bay, afternoons relaxing by the pool and evenings enjoying unforgettable sunsets from your own private waterfront retreat. The dock, boat lift, expansive patios, lush grounds and inviting entertaining spaces create a lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find along Florida's Gulf Coast. Beautifully restored and thoughtfully updated, the main residence blends timeless architectural character with the comforts today's buyers appreciate. Positioned at approximately 14 feet above sea level, it also offers an elevation advantage that discerning waterfront buyers increasingly value. This is more than a waterfront property. It is an opportunity to become part of the enduring story of Terra Ceia Island-a place where history, family, nature and authentic Florida living come together in one extraordinary setting.
