About this home
Offers encouraged, sellers relocating for work. You'll think you're in Key West.

No HOA. This historic Old Florida cottage is built like a fortress, while full of charm and character. A mother-in-law suite offers an expansive primary retreat or income potential, and two additional sheds have previously been used as fishing cabins. The double lot provides 1/3 acre, 130' of concrete seawall, and space to tie up multiple boats right out back. High ceilings, beadboard, chair rail, wide trim, and crown molding add timeless appeal, while peaceful water views fill the home with light and calm. Low Glades County taxes.
