Island Living with Income Potential, Privacy & Incredible Elevated Views! Welcome to a truly unique Cedar Key property offering the rare combination of a beautifully renovated island home, substantial acreage, elevated construction, and versatile ground-level workspace. Whether you're searching for your own full-time island retreat, a vacation getaway, or a property with the potential to become a valuable short-term rental or income-producing asset, this one deserves your attention. Situated on a total of 1.52 acres, the property includes approximately 0.83 acres surrounding the home plus an additional 0.69-acre parcel to the east, providing an exceptional buffer and a greater sense of privacy. The land continues south toward the salt marsh, where mangroves create a thriving coastal habitat and provide a front-row connection to the natural beauty and wildlife that make Cedar Key so special. Originally constructed in 1977, the home underwent a major transformation in 2017, when it was raised from approximately 6 feet above mean high tide to roughly 18 feet above mean high tide.

The elevation provides a completely different perspective of the island and its surrounding coastal landscape. Below the living area is approximately 750 square feet of enclosed workshop and storage space, offering an abundance of room for tools, equipment, recreational gear, a workshop, storage, or other uses. A full-size garage door makes access especially convenient. An elevator connects the ground level to the living space, adding tremendous convenience for everyday living, unloading groceries, moving belongings, or simply making the home more accessible.

Check out this amazing piece of Cedar Key, Florida history! Originally built as a church, this building still has the speaking platform in place--a sleekly-curved, raised section of its wood floor! The build date on this listing is currently an estimate. For most of the past century, it was used as a woodworking shop by Herman Wells, who built all of the fine Adirondack chairs you see dotted around on the island. Filled with equipment and several different species of Herman's choice woods, the building functioned perfectly while customers waited in line for the hand-crafted chairs and the beautifully-flowing porch swings "Wells Woods" was famous for creating. With Herman's passing, the building is now available for its next chapter and the restoration that will bring. As a contributing structure to the Cedar Key Historic Register, the building is entitled to special treatment in regards to FEMA regulations. The designation on the register rewards an owner with the opportunity to spend whatever funds they choose in a restoration without having to comply with FEMA's 50% rule, thereby avoiding the additional expense elevation would incur. This fabulous piece of history is ready for you to get started in the creation of its next chapter. Take a look--and quiz your real estate agent on the details. What a unique opportunity! If only this place could talk!
