Property Description
Welcome to Mariner's Retreat, an extraordinary waterfront estate and development opportunity in the heart of historic Terra Ceia, Florida. The offering highlighted here centers on the premier waterfront parcel at 1470 Bayshore Drive, encompassing approximately 1.41 acres with more than 475 feet of pristine shoreline along Tillette Bayou and Terra Ceia Bay—an increasingly rare canvas for private coastal living.
Anchoring this parcel is a three-story residence offering over 3,600 square feet under air. The home has been thoughtfully improved, including a brand-new roof completed in late 2025 and full ceiling restoration. Originally renovated in 2018, enhancements include impact-rated windows and doors, an updated kitchen and baths, refined flooring and lighting, and a 2023 HVAC system. Expansive water views stretch across Terra Ceia Bay toward the iconic Sunshine Skyway Bridge.
The property offers direct water access to Terra Ceia Bay and the Gulf of Mexico within minutes, allowing for a seamless boating lifestyle with opportunities for world-class fishing, wildlife encounters, and sunset cruising.
Complementing this waterfront parcel is a rare opportunity to expand ownership with two additional vacant parcels located directly across the street at 1450 and 1460 Bayshore Drive. Together, these parcels total over 8 acres of upland terrain with mature Florida landscape. Supported by a completed environmental study, they present strong potential for future development, including additional homesites under Planned Development Residential (PD-R) zoning and a RES-1 land use designation.
Buyers have the flexibility to acquire the waterfront parcel on its own, pair it with one additional parcel, or secure all three parcels to create a nearly 10-acre compound—ideal for a private family enclave, strategic development, or a long-term legacy investment.
The property is located within Flood Zone AE, with base elevations of 9 to 10 feet. Owner financing may be considered for qualified buyers, with environmental reports and additional details available upon request.
Mariner's Retreat captures the essence of Old Florida—private, expansive, and deeply connected to the water—while offering meaningful flexibility for future vision. All just moments from St. Petersburg, Tampa, and the I-275 corridor, yet peacefully removed from the pace of the mainland.
