Terra Ceia offers Waterfront Homes for Sale in a Very Desirable Location

Terra Ceia is a Florida island located on the southern end of the imposing Sunshine Skyway Bridge that connects Southwest Florida with Saint Petersburg and the Greater Tampa Metropolitan Area.  The real estate at Terra Ceia is one of the most desirable in all of Florida for a variety of reasons.

Terra Ceia is an important part of Florida’s cultural heritage.  The Spanish explorers of Florida’s gulf coast reported a number of indigenous tribes in the 16th century.  Three centuries later, Cuban fishermen had settled in the area and began farming.  Throughout the years, the coastline of Terra Ceia has managed to remain virtually undisturbed as most of the development has taken place inland.  The Terra Ceia Aquatic Preserve is a network of inlets, creeks, rivers, and mangroves considered to form an important Florida ecosystem.

There are many real estate opportunities at Terra Ceia, from two-bedroom homes starting at $269,000 to sizable 3,423 square foot home with three bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms for $1.1M.  There are many waterfront views, as well as homes within enclaves of lush vegetation, and there is prevalence towards the Key West style of home design. Construction-ready lots start at $124,000 for 1.4 acres to $899,000 for almost 6 acres.

Nature is the focus of the amenities at Terra Ceia.  The sights of the Gulf of Mexico and the Tampa Bay during sunrise and sunsets are spectacular. The abundant vegetation and wildlife beg residents and visitors to explore the islands via its many hiking and kayak trails.  Boaters and fishing enthusiasts will never tire of the easy access to the Gulf or the Florida inlets, rivers and canals.

Terra Ceia may be off the beaten track, but it’s not isolated.  Easy access to the Skyway Bridge means that residents are just minutes away from the Tampa and Saint Petersburg metropolitan areas, and Bradenton is also nearby.  The community is served by Palm View Elementary, Lincoln Middle and Palmetto High schools.  Shopping and other suburban comforts are all within two miles.
