Along one of the most breathtaking stretches of shoreline on Casey Key, this rebuilt two-story coastal residence captures the rare balance of privacy, elevation, and timeless beachfront living. Set on a natural Gulf-front berm at approximately 13 feet above sea level, the property enjoys an uncommon vantage point overlooking the sand and water, offering both beauty and permanence rarely found along the Gulf Coast. The home was rebuilt with a newly constructed first level and an elevated second-floor addition, creating a residence designed for long-term sustainability while preserving the charm and scale of a classic coastal cottage. The result is a home that feels as though it has always belonged here, yet offers the confidence of modern construction. With four bedrooms and four bathrooms arranged over two levels, the living spaces are oriented to capture extraordinary Gulf views while maintaining privacy in the secondary bedrooms. On the main level, the living room and kitchen open to sweeping views of the Gulf of Mexico through a full wall of patio doors, filling the space with light and drawing the outdoors in. Two bedrooms are located on this level, including a private en-suite guest room that opens to a quiet courtyard garden, creating a peaceful retreat away from the waterfront side of the home. The second bedroom is also on the main level, along with an additional full bath. Outside, a landscaped lawn extends toward the shoreline, leading to approximately 45 feet of privately owned sandy beach. The transition from garden to sand feels effortless, with curated landscaping, architectural lighting, and the natural beauty of Casey Key surrounding the property. The second level, added during reconstruction, takes full advantage of the elevated setting. The primary suite and adjoining sitting room open through floor-to-ceiling patio doors to an expansive balcony overlooking the beach and Gulf, creating a breathtaking vantage point above the shoreline. From this level, the views stretch endlessly across the water. The primary suite includes a spacious bath and walk-in closet, while an additional bedroom, full bath, and laundry area complete the upper level. Throughout the home, finishes balance modern construction with the warmth of a coastal retreat. Wide-plank Riva Spanish white oak flooring, custom Magnolia cabinetry, Calacatta Gold marble, handcrafted Zellige tile, and designer lighting create a layered elegance. Major systems have been replaced, including electrical, plumbing, HVAC, septic, insulation, roofing, impact windows and doors, and exterior cladding, giving the home the strength of new construction while preserving the character of a Gulf-front residence. Positioned on one of the rare naturally elevated sites along this stretch of Casey Key, the home sits gently on its berm above the shoreline, overlooking a private expanse of sand and water. The lawn, gardens, and beach flow together in a way that makes the property feel as though it has always been part of the land. There is a quiet beauty here that is hard to find and even harder to recreate. The scale is intimate, the setting extraordinary, and the craftsmanship unmistakable. It feels less like a house that was built, and more like a beach home meant to be here. On Casey Key, opportunities like this are rare. Call to today to set up an appointment for a private tour.
