Looking for a Casey Key Florida Beach House?

Have you been dreaming of a Casey Key beach house for the last 10 years? Perhaps you’ve recently read “Duma Key” by Stephen King and just discovered Casey Key, Florida. Regardless of how you found out about this special island Paradise, now might just be the time to begin a search for your Casey Key beach home. The winter selling season is over in the Sarasota area, prices are at reasonable levels and the selection is terrific.

Casey Key is a very private key, however you can still be in downtown Sarasota in 25 minutes from the North end of the Key. Venice, FL is only a few minutes from the South Casey Key Bridge. Many residents here enjoy the privacy that the island provides. In addition to privacy, Casey Key offers beach houses on the Gulf of Mexico from the North end of its 8 miles to the South end. Some special properties cover several acres and extend from the Bayside of the island to the Gulf of Mexico and beaches.

Currently the Sarasota MLS reports 54 houses available. Options include direct beachfront, bay front and gulf-to-bay properties. Many of the homes that are not directly on the beach have deeded beach access. If you were looking for that tiny two bedroom traditional Florida beach house, the lowest priced Gulf listing is priced at $1,599,000. If your budget is just a little over $2,000,000, you might consider purchasing a listing directly on the beach offering 3 bedrooms, 3 baths and 2300 sf of living space. Use your beach house a few years, tear it down and built your dream home. If the sky’s the limit, a cool $17,000,000 will purchase the largest of Casey Key beach houses – a Gulf to Bay estate with over 16,000 square feet of living space.
