“We always envisioned a beautiful location to build our family retreat, and the best location for us was Casey Key. This home was designed for ultimate relaxation and ample amenities to entertain our children and grandchildren. We hope buyers will love this residence as much as we loved building it.” – Todd and Marenda Stitzer, current owners of 1213 Casey Key Road.
“The thing that makes Casey Key unique, there are so few properties statewide on a barrier island that span gulf-to-bay. Eight miles long and limited to only 400 residences, the residential areas are in a State of Florida conservation district and not zoned for any high rises or condominiums, maintaining its charm and desirability.” – Lisa Napolitano and Valerie Dall’ Acqua, Premier Sotheby’s International Realty.
