About This Property

Built elevated and storm-tested, this home has never flooded during Helene, Milton, or any prior storm. Set on over an acre of land backing directly onto a protected preserve, 1605 Center Road offers something increasingly rare on Florida's Gulf Coast: genuine privacy, permanent open space behind you, and the peace of mind that comes with a home built to last.This home delivers a roof  built to post-2015 requirements, hurricane impact windows and doors throughout, and elevated 2021 construction, all of which provide peace of mind.The preserve backing ensures no rear neighbors and ultimate privacy. Protected land cannot be developed, giving you a permanent green buffer and unobstructed natural views from the covered back porch, which has been roughed-in for an outdoor kitchen and designed to extend your living space outdoors, with french doors that open fully to seamlessly connect the interior to the backyard. A built-in mosquito misting system makes outdoor entertaining comfortable year-round. The acre-plus lot also offers genuine flexibility with ample space to add a swimming pool, an accessory dwelling unit, or simply room to breathe, something that is almost impossible to find at this price point.Inside, the heart of the home is a grand open-plan living space with a chef's kitchen designed for serious cooking: premium induction cooktop, double built-in ovens with convection and air-fry capability, a large walk-in pantry, and a dedicated beverage refrigerator. The layout is both elegant and practical, the generous dining space flows naturally from the kitchen, and the entire living area opens toward the preserve views beyond.The spa-inspired primary suite offers backyard preserve views, remote-controlled window coverings, double vanities, a walk-in shower, private water closet, and a spacious custom closet build-out. A split floor plan places two additional bedrooms, each featuring custom closets, on the opposite side of the home, sharing a jack-and-jill bath. A dedicated flex room serves equally well as a home office, den, playroom, or fourth bedroom.Practical features are equally well considered: an attached two-car garage plus a detached building that accommodates two additional vehicles or serves as workshop and storage, a built-in RV hookup, outdoor lighting controlled from interior switches, and a full home security system. Every closet in the home features a custom build-out.Location is genuinely convenient for an island address, located less than 5 minutes to water access, 20 minutes to St. Petersburg, 25 minutes to area beaches, and 30 minutes to Sarasota. Membership in the Village Improvement Association (VIA) provides access to private Sea Breeze Park with a playground, pickleball court, pavilion, and boat launch. HOA membership adds access to an additional boat launch and dock.If you have been searching for a low-density coastal retreat with room to grow, storm-proven resilience, and a setting that cannot be replicated — this is it
