Casey Key
What it costs, what it charges, and what is for sale — Casey Key in Nokomis, Florida.
The short version
Living in Casey Key
Casey Key is a narrow barrier island in unincorporated Sarasota County, between the Gulf of Mexico and the Intracoastal Waterway, running north from Venice Inlet toward Osprey. One winding road, Casey Key Road, runs its length past Gulf-front estates and bay-front homes with private docks, with no commercial strip in between. Two bridges reach it: the Albee Road bridge at the south end, beside Nokomis Beach and North Jetty Park, and at the north end the Blackburn Point Bridge, a steel swing bridge that has linked the key to the mainland since 1926. Every home listed here is a single-family house, most of them on the water, from 1930s originals to new construction. Homes south of Blackburn Point Road carry Nokomis addresses; the north end's are filed under Osprey and have their own page.

Fees, rules & flood
- Rules that catch people out
- Unincorporated Sarasota County: county taxes, zoning and building permits
- Gulf-front building seaward of Florida's Coastal Construction Control Line needs a state permit — check the line on the survey
- Flood story
- Nearly every listing here that reports a FEMA zone reports a high-risk one (A, AE or AO, and VE on the Gulf side), though a few report minimal-risk zone X: check each home's own zone and elevation certificate, and budget for flood insurance.
