325 Casey Key Road Nokomis, Florida







The Herron Group with RE/MAX Alliance Group just re-listed 325 Casey Key Road Nokomis, Florida. This is the lowest priced Gulf Front home on Casey Key…it could very well steal your heart away. It is being offered at $1,599,000 with prices on the key going up to $18,500,000 for a Gulf to Bay property at the North end of Casey Key.

Casey Key is Sarasota’s most prestigious barrier island and home to the area’s most exclusive properties.

You can own this exceptional beachcomber’s haven and enjoy the spectacular sunsets from your glass walled family room or your very own private powdery white sandy beach. The panoramic water views are fantastic and unbelievable.

This is truly “Old Florida Charm” beach cottage built in 1947 and it still has the Pecky Cypress wood ceilings. Most of the homes that were built on Casey Key in the 30’s, 40’s and early 50’s were built with a lot of Pecky Cypress. An old neighbor of mine up at the North End of Casey Key who had an older home with Pecky Cypress told me it allowed the home to breath. Back then there wasn’t any air conditioning or central heating. You had a fireplace or two and most of the older homes were closed up over the summer months. Yet when the owners returned in the fall the homes were fine with no signs of mold or mildew.

On the humorous side I thought he was referring to the appearance of the wood which is holey and grooved as to why it helped the house breath. It probably didn’t hurt.
