1028 Virginia Street, Key West

The new listing at 1028 Virginia Street, Key West is located about one block west of White Street. This property is located in the Old Town area known as South of Truman. CLICK HERE for a GOOGLE MAP aerial view of the area. You will understand why the lot is so large - two separate houses were combined years ago to create one larger property that today measures 48' X 85' or 4272 sq ft.  The aerial view shows and the City of Key West recognize three separate living units on the lot..
Even as early as 1965 when the above black and white photo of 1026-1028 Virginia Street was taken, the two houses were connected via bridge visible in the photo. That bridge still exists today, but the two houses are rented separately. There is also detached two story cottage located behind 1028 Virginia Street which is not visible from the street.
The "unit" on the west side was formerly a stand alone house identified as 1026 Virginia Street. This is a large one bedroom apartment with fairly large back yard with a sunny deck.
1028 Virginia Street is about the same size and similarly laid out but which has a smaller rear deck. The entrance to the rear cottage is located on the east side of the property. Access is restricted through a semi-enclosed gated entry. The gate opens to a private deck where French doors open into the two the story cottage. The main floor includes living, dining, kitchen and bath. The second level is a sleeping loft. .
This property has three licenses with the City of Key West so all three units can be rented on an annual basis. A new owner looking for a place to live with income could live in any of the three buildings. All are in move-in condition. They are dated to the extent that not everything is brand new, but nothing needs to be fixed from what I could see. They reflect the style of updating that occurred in the late 1980s and early 1990s.  We should all look that good. These units should rent immediately when they become vacant. Locals would love the location because it is within easy walking or biking distance to Duval Street. Faustos grocery and numerous gyms, yoga studios, and neighborhood restaurants are nearby.
