Property Description

Charming 1950s Cottage in Historic Braden Castle Park! Step into Old Florida charm with this beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath cottage built in the 1950s, this home retains its vintage appeal of terrazzo floors and classic teal bath tile, while boasting modern upgrades, including a newer kitchen, and a 2022 A/C. The 2006 metal roof and newer double pane windows provide durability and peace of mind, while the indoor laundry and large carport add convenience. Enjoy outdoor living on the spacious back patio, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Nestled among many other equally unique cottages, Braden Castle Park was originally placed on the map in the 1920s when travel and leisure was all the rage. Many Americans took to the highways to explore new locations and headed South to escape their chilly Northern homes. In 1924, Braden Castle Park was incorporated as “The Camping Tourists of America”, an affiliate of the Tin Can Tourists. Today, year-round and seasonal residents alike appreciate the community and all it has to offer. Boating, shuffleboard, fishing and a community hall are all available with low $400 annual HOA dues. Assigned boat slips are available for an additional $300 annually. Whether you’re looking for a seasonal retreat or a full-time residence, this charming cottage offers a perfect blend of history, comfort, and coastal living. A few housekeeping items regarding the HOA - this is a mandatory membership association. It is a 55+ community, no pets, and a three year wait for new residents to rent out their property (thereafter, one month minimum rent, no more than six times a year). This home stayed high & dry in the 2024 storms, no damage!
