About this home
Private Key West–style retreat on 2.53 wooded acres in Osprey. Rarely does a property of this size become available in such a convenient location—just minutes from Pine View School, shopping, restaurants, and the Intracoastal Waterway—yet offering the privacy and space of a true country setting. This combination of acreage and accessibility makes the home exceptionally unique for the area. A generous 37x60 paver-brick patio surrounds the screened lap-style pool, now protected by a freshly updated pool cage. Multiple French doors open to wide second-floor decks overlooking the peaceful wooded backdrop. A recently added metal roof enhances durability, longevity, and value. Inside, the home features oak hardwood floors, vaulted tongue-and-groove cypress ceilings, and a striking wood-burning fireplace that add warmth and character throughout. The kitchen and baths retain their classic charm and present an excellent opportunity for updating to suit modern preferences. The flexible layout includes two potential primary suites and a first-floor bonus room with full bath that works well for guests or creative uses. The lower level remains plumbed for a second kitchen and laundry, offering an easy path for future installation or multigenerational living. With no deed restrictions and an expansive amount of usable land, this country estate in town offers endless potential—whether for hobbies, animals, enhancements, or simply enjoying the quiet beauty of its natural surroundings.
