Just Listed: 413 Frances Street Key West Florida

Just Listed, but not by me, 413 Frances Street, Key West, Florida.  The listing Realtor describes this way:
"Beautifully renovated historic home located on highly desirable Frances Street in the heart of Old Town Key West. Meticulous restoration with high ceilings and Dade County Pine walls and floors. Gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. Two bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs, plus a downstairs bedroom that is currently used as a den. Pool, back deck, and front porch for enjoyable outdoor living. Two off street parking spaces and a fabulous location near the Historic Seaport make this a Key West tropical oasis for the island lifestyle."
 When you enter the front doorway of 413 Frances Street your eyes are drawn to the rich Dade County Pine walls that expand from the entry foyer to the living room and dining room on the right and to the main hallway and staircase to the left. This house is the embodiment of what would-be home buyers dream of in a Key West house. The almost rustic appearance is intentional. The previous owner did a  meticulous renovation just a couple of years ago. This home has what discerning second home buyers want: lots of charm, off street parking (for two cars), a pool, and nothing that needs fixed. That's almost Paradise in itself.
The main floor has the entry hall with living room and dining room on the right side of the house. A full bath is on this level as is the kitchen with center island. The current owner uses the room located just to the rear of the kitchen as a den or family room. Prior owners had glass doors to provide privacy when this space was used as a third guest bedroom. French doors open out onto the pool area on one side and out to a large terrace on the other.
 
Upstairs there are two very good sized bedrooms and full bathrooms. The main floor family room can do double duty as a third sleeping area with a sofa bed. That space could be easily converted into a full time bedroom should climbing the stairs become a problem for a homeowner. (Remember there is a full bathroom on the main floor.) There is bricked off street parking that can accommodate two cars.

413 Frances Street would make a great vacation rental. In fact prior owners successfully rented this home as a monthly vacation rental for several years. The Historic Key West Seaport is a couple of blocks to the north. Duval Street is a five to seven minute walk to the west. The Old Town Bakery and Cole's Peace Bakery are one block away in either direction. Blossoms Market is a block away down Elgin Lane to the east. I had a very tasty and reasonably priced lunch at nearby Azur a few weeks ago.  Monthly renters can walk to one of several nearby gyms or yoga studios. This house could be a cash cow to a buyer who wants a place to stay, a place to rent, and a place to make money for several years to come.
