Native Americans lived and built canoes along its banks. Early settlers transported goods and news from outside down its streams. And now you can call this historic river home. Nestled on a large lot on the banks of the Pithlachascotee River, affectionately known by locals as the Cotee, this home was built in 1920. <br /> <br /> The main house has retained all of its old Florida charm with its recently refinished original plank wood floors, original tongue and groove pine walls, stove heat, and metal roof.<br /> <br /> Outback, the cottage exterior appears much the same as it did in the 1920s when vacationers braved the desolate roads in their Model Ts to escape the cold. However, the interior of the cottage has been renovated with a new kitchen and textured walls. Multi family zoning is grandfathered in so you can use the cottage to generate income or simply as a charming guest house by the river for visiting family and friends.<br /> <br /> The land is embraced by citrus trees and large oaks swaying with Spanish moss.<br /> <br /> Launch your boat from the floating dock and explore the river and the many restaurants along its banks or head out to the gulf and the nearby tropical islands. Walk to Simms Park, downtown, and to the fun city events like the Chasco Festival, Seafood Festival, Blues Festival, and other outdoor amphitheater concerts! Easy commutes to Tampa and Clearwater.<br /> <br /> Come live along the peaceful Cotee River.
