Property Description
Check out this amazing piece of Cedar Key, Florida history! Originally built as a church, this building still has the speaking platform in place--a sleekly-curved, raised section of its wood floor! The build date on this listing is currently an estimate. For most of the past century, it was used as a woodworking shop by Herman Wells, who built all of the fine Adirondack chairs you see dotted around on the island. Filled with equipment and several different species of Herman's choice woods, the building functioned perfectly while customers waited in line for the hand-crafted chairs and the beautifully-flowing porch swings "Wells Woods" was famous for creating. With Herman's passing, the building is now available for its next chapter and the restoration that will bring. As a contributing structure to the Cedar Key Historic Register, the building is entitled to special treatment in regards to FEMA regulations. The designation on the register rewards an owner with the opportunity to spend whatever funds they choose in a restoration without having to comply with FEMA's 50% rule, thereby avoiding the additional expense elevation would incur. This fabulous piece of history is ready for you to get started in the creation of its next chapter. Take a look--and quiz your real estate agent on the details. What a unique opportunity! If only this place could talk!
