WATERFRONT OPPORTUNITY — STRONG VALUE HEADING INTO THE 2026! As the new year brings renewed optimism for improving interest rates and a more active market, opportunities like this are increasingly hard to find—especially on the water. Set on a .23-acre corner lot with saltwater canal frontage leading directly to Miguel Bay, this 3BR/2BA, 1,456 sq ft home offers a rare chance to secure a special piece of island living at an increasingly compelling price. The home sustained storm damage in 2024, creating an opportunity for a buyer with vision—whether that means restoring what’s here, reworking the layout, or starting fresh and building a custom waterfront retreat. The canal is well-suited for kayaks, paddleboards, and shallow-draft boats, with easy access out to Miguel Bay and Tampa Bay beyond. Life on Terra Ceia Island moves at a different pace. This quiet, historic island community is golf-cart friendly and known for its relaxed, old-Florida feel, all while offering convenient access to St. Petersburg, Tampa, and Sarasota via the Sunshine Skyway. Wildlife sightings are part of everyday life—manatees, dolphins, herons, and egrets are frequent visitors, and the setting feels peaceful and unspoiled. Residents may also choose to join the Terra Ceia Village Improvement Association, which provides access to Sea Breeze Park, a 5-acre waterfront space with a boat ramp, fishing pier, picnic areas, restrooms, and a covered BBQ pavilion. Beloved community traditions like the Mullet Smoke-Off, Kayak Regatta, Art Show, and Holiday Hayride add to the sense of connection that makes this island so special. With direct water access, a generous lot, and a newly adjusted price, this property offers a timely opportunity to step into waterfront ownership before activity begins to pick up. Bring your contractor, your ideas, and your imagination—this is a chance to create something truly special in a setting that’s becoming harder to find.
