Breathe the Gulf Breezes from Keaton Beach

Nestled along Florida’s Big Bend Gulf Coast lays a little-known fishing village, where Great Blue Herons, Snowy White Egrets and Florida Brown Pelicans abound… where a resident Bald Eagle soars… where sunsets are spectacular. Keaton Beach, a coastal gem of Taylor County, is a quaintly quiet beach community reminiscent of Florida days of yore.

What better place to escape the stress of modern life than sipping a tall glass of iced tea while watching fishing boats come and go from the wrap-around deck of a beautiful 2-story beach house. With gaily-painted, sunny yellow exterior, and interior walls of apricot, aqua, plum, khaki and yellow, this rambling 6-bedroom, 3-bath home has two separate living areas… each with their own fully-equipped kitchen, including washer and dryer.

Upstairs, there are 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, one with Jacuzzi tub, a large glass-enclosed tile shower, tile floors and a porcelain pedestal sink. The other bath has oak flooring with a large tile shower. The master bedroom and commodious living area each open through French doors onto a wrap around deck with ocean view. The large sunny kitchen is fully renovated with all new appliances.

The downstairs unit, which is completely separate from the rest of the house, is a perfect opportunity for rental income. There are two bedrooms, one full bath and a fully equipped kitchen with all new appliances, including a washer and dryer. 2-inch white louvered blinds dress the windows throughout the entire house.

The house sits on a double lot with 100 ft of Gulf-front property, includes a large dock near the local marina, and is only 1 hour 15 minutes from Tallahassee. Come on down, enjoy the fishing, crabbing, scalloping, and tour this fabulous property before someone else snatches it up!

Riverfront Cottage For Sale… Landscaping by Mother Nature

Imagine a cottage nestled in 12 and a half acres of unspoiled North Florida forest, high upon the banks of the majestic Suwannee River… a place where native flora and fauna flourish, where protected habitat sustains a wealth of animal and birdlife, where endangered species still reign.

Imagine lounging on a river-view porch at sunset watching a manatee cresting for air as a Great Horned Owl swoops from his perch in a Spanish moss-laden Century Oak in search of his evening meal. A resident red-tailed fox lopes through palmetto and wild azalea as a white-tailed deer leads her fawn to the river for a drink.

Private enough to sunbathe in your birthday suit, this 700 square foot frame home features plantation shutters, two porches – one with screen and one without, pine cabinets and flooring throughout.

The recently renovated, fully-equipped kitchen features elegant black appliances with porcelain sink and granite counter tops.

Painted in cheerful Florida colors, the living area and single bedroom are tastefully framed in crown molding with fluted casings and rosettes and wide baseboards. There are wooden doors and pane windows throughout, and a ceramic tile bath with all porcelain fixtures.

One hour from Gainesville, this 12.79 Gilchrist County acreage has 528 feet of river frontage, including a private boat dock, with views of both up river and down…. recreation options abound for water sport enthusiasts, including boating, water sking, kayaking, canoeing, fishing, swimming, snorkeling and scuba diving.

Ambling through a majestic virgin forest of Dogwood, River Birch, Magnolia, Bald Cypress, Sweet Gum, Live Oak and Longleaf Pine… one can enjoy bird-watching, hiking, and exploring land once inhabited by indigenous native Floridians.

Whether as a private residence or a vacation home, this secluded parcel of North Florida paradise is ready to enjoy.
