Trade the everyday rush for birdsong, bay breezes, and kayak adventures through your own mangrove-lined saltwater canal. Tucked away on over 4.5 acres on historic Terra Ceia Island, this private retreat surrounds you with natural Florida beauty, peaceful water views, and room to exhale. Launch your kayak from your backyard and follow the secluded kayak tunnel toward Terra Ceia Bay, spending your days paddling, fishing, and exploring. As evening settles in, head to the private crow’s nest to take in sunsets over the island’s lush landscape. Inside, walls of windows bring the outdoors into focus, filling the home with natural light and views of the surrounding greenery. Tongue-and-groove ceilings, wood-wrapped beams, crown molding, and carefully selected finishes create a warm, inviting coastal feel. The open living area flows into a beautifully appointed kitchen with quartz countertops, premium stainless steel appliances, and a wine refrigerator, while multiple outdoor decks offer places for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or simply listening to nature. Upstairs, the primary suite is a peaceful escape with its own fireplace, private balcony, oversized closet, and spa-inspired bathroom. An additional upstairs bedroom offers a flexible ensuite layout for guests or extended family. The oversized lower-level garage provides generous space for vehicles, kayaks, paddleboards, fishing gear, and more. Offered fully furnished, with kayaks, bicycles, and a UTV potentially included, the home makes it easy to settle into island life. Terra Ceia’s rich history, winding roads, and longstanding community traditions give the island a character all its own. Optional membership in the Village Improvement Association offers another way to connect, with access to a community boat ramp, kayak launch, waterfront park, pickleball courts, pavilion, fire pit, and community events. For all its tucked-away tranquility, this location keeps you conveniently connected. Nearby access to I-275 and the Sunshine Skyway puts St. Petersburg within easy reach, with Tampa’s dining, entertainment, and airport accessible for day trips and travel. Peaceful mornings, outdoor adventures, and evenings above the treetops await in this distinctive Terra Ceia Island retreat.
