  Casey Key, a barrier island only a few miles south of Sarasota, Florida, is known for its stately single-family homes for sale.  In fact, Casey Key real estate showcases some of the most stunning and prestigious mansions on the Gulf Coast of Southwest Florida.

Welcome to beautiful Casey Key in Nokomis, Florida.  Just south of Sarasota, this slice of paradise is Florida's best kept secret.  So if you don't mind, let's just keep it between us. Many of the homes on this 8-mile stretch of gorgeous white, powdery sand include beach-to-bay ownership, providing spectacular gulf and bay views on a island no more than 300 yards wide. Casey Key provides more than enough room for beautiful single-family homes on winding roads, cutting through the lush tropics that compliment the island. While zoning restrictions ban the building of high-rise condos, only a few mom and pop motels exist today, making Casey Key one of the most untainted keys in the area. This fantastic island maintains an “old Florida” charm, though there are magnificent estate-style home...

Located just off of the mainland town of Nokomis, the 8-mile long Casey Key is a hidden gem that offers its residents the peace and solitude they are seeking. Thanks to its lack of massive hotels and small population, Casey Key is a far cry from some of the more lively islands in the Sarasota area. For those who are looking for a quiet place to call home that still offers magnificent views, plenty of beach access and a convenient location that is close to all of Sarasota’s main attractions, however, Casey Key is the perfect place to look. With just 400 residents, Casey Key real estate offers the privacy that many of its residents seek. In fact, many of the homes in Casey Key are owned by celebrities. Perhaps the most noteworthy resident of the island is author Stephen King, who calls th...
