160 Bayshore Drive

Description

Welcome to Old Florida! Imagine building your Custom Coastal Home on this pristine slice of Paradise and open a portal to the past. A simpler place and time, where fireflies dance under the canopy of oaks. Cast a line, or a net, or a kayak out on the still waters of Terra Ceia Bay where the sun rises and sets in a golden glow. You can just picture marshmallows over the firepit and a big swing hanging from low mossy branches, overlooking over 100' of private natural waterfront. While designing the plans for your dream home, you can enjoy the existing cottage, which sits back on the land, providing a large front garden with Florida native plants. Inside the cottage, refinished wood floors lead you from one room to the next. From the large dining room, French doors open to the living room with original wood burning fireplace and a picture window overlooking the Bay. Warm butcherblock countertops over white cabinets give this 9itchen a nostalgic feel with plenty of counter space and storage space. The Florida room stretches across the back of the home, overlooking a big back yard surrounded by lush landscaping. One bedroom overlooks the back yard and has an ensuite bath with shower. The second, and larger of the two bedrooms, has a picture window with panoramic water views. A second full bath with soaking tub is just of the hallway. Nestled between the Terra Ceia Aquatic Preserve and the Terra Ceia Preserve State Park, you will be surrounded by natural wonders and winding trails, while being only 20 minutes away from Downtown St. Petersburg or Bradenton. Private well with new well pump and newer septic system already in place. Survey and Elevation Certificate available.
