401 Terra Ceia Rd, Terra Ceia, FL 34250 - For Sale

Take a step back in time as you drive slowly up the driveway and breathe in a piece of Old Florida history.Massive drapes of Spanish moss sway in the breeze from century old trees that surround this Southern home built in 1900. Screened front porch where if you pause for a moment you can almost imagine that you hear the tinkling of ice in glass tea pitchers while Southern ladies snap green beans in readiness for the evening meal. Step inside the double entry doors where you will literally move back in time to an era where the family gathered around a huge dining room table to share the evening meal or converge in front of a wood burning fireplace on a chilly winter's eve. Large "family sized" kitchen with eating space and pantry storage. An adjacent family room off the kitchen opens to a laundry room and onto a spacious outdoor deck overlooking 11.5 acres M/L that are abundantly planted with 400-500 Washingtonia Palms in varying stages of growth between 5-19 years. These mature trees can be nurtured as a profitable business or sold if one would want to consider subdividing the land for future development. The upstairs of the historic home has 3 bedrooms and second bath. The stairway leading to the second level offers dual landings and once upstairs you will see and appreciate the original hardwood flooring and the lovely sun porch off the master bedroom. If you appreciate the peace of country living and the quality of Old Florida settler style homes, you will enjoy every moment of touring this property.
