550 Porter Lane - Presidents Lane Townhomes - Bank Owned - Key West

This new Bank Owned listing will likely go under contract in a New York minute because of the location, price, and value that this baby offers to potential second home buyers. The listing agent's mls description tells all:

"BANK-OWNED Presidents Lane 2/2.5 Townhouse with covered parking. Steps away from Duval Street and Old Town Key West shops and restaurants. This property comes furnished"

This is how the same unit was described (and photos taken) in 2007 was listed at a much higher price by a different agent:

"As you enter this lovely town home you are greeted with the view of a comfortable and inviting vacation home. Features include a phantom screen door for the front door, colorful custom kitchen countertops, and newer appliances, tile floors on the first level, solid oak stairs and oak flooring on the second level. A new awning has been added at second floor rear balcony. This homes comes fully furnished ready to be rented if desired. A covered assigned parking with extra storage is included."

I have written about Presidents Lane Townhomes before as it has recently had several units go on the market. Even though each unit is very much alike as far as size and room configuration, each is different as to location, decoration, owner motivation to sell. That is why I think Unit 550 Porter Lane will sell so quickly-it is priced to sell now at just $470,900. There may even be a bidding competition to get this unit. The mls datasheet does not show that this unit has a transient license; however, the 2007 mls datasheet showed that it had one at that time.

The amenities at Presidents Lane include nearby covered off street parking and a beautiful pool plus the beautifully maintained grounds of the Truman Annex and security. Frequent visitors know that Truman Annex enjoys a great location near Duval Street, Mallory Square, and quick access to Fort Zachary Taylor Beach and state park.
