3930 South Roosevelt Blvd Unit E 211 Key West - Just Listed

Just Listed by Preferred Properties Key West, that's where I work, but this is not my listing: 3930 South Roosevelt Blvd Unit E 211 in the Las Salinas Condominiums. This 807 square foot second floor units has been freshly renovated and is price to sell in today's crazy real estate market.

I don't know if the brand new kitchen with quartz counter tops and new stainless steel appliances will catch your attention first or if it will be the view of the Salt Ponds. Las salinas translates as the salt flats. The Key West salt ponds are a naturally occurring feature on just a short distance from the Atlantic Ocean. It is an expansive area with bright views to the south, west, and north but still only a four mile ride to Old Town.

Both the master bedroom with en-suite bath and the living room open out to the deck. The windows and doors have been replaced with impact glass which has made the condo fees much more affordable - just $377 per moth. Fees include building insurances, building and common area maintenance, and cable television. 

The unit has new flooring throughout and two new bathrooms. The unit also has washer and dryer located in the kitchen. There is also coin operated laundry on each floor. The building has an elevator and multiple stairways. There is exterior and inner courtyard of each building feature palm trees and tropical foliage. 

The community pool is a long time feature of this complex but the gym was recently added. South Roosevelt Boulevard curves around the east and south sides of the island as it makes its way to the Key West International Airport and Smathers Beach. Take a left when you leave the complex, head north and you will soon arrive at the three shopping centers, Home Depot, or head west toward Old Town.

Las Salinas Condominium Unit 112 West - Key West

I've been to Las Salinas three times in my life. Once was a few years ago during Realtor caravan. (That's when local agents preview new listings.) The second and third times were this week. I am showing properties for another agent who is out of town this week. I was very pleasantly surprised at how nice (and affordable) Unit 112 West is and decided I wanted to share my impressions with you. On June 3rd I wrote about a possible double dip in the recession and stated "I have never shown a unit at Las Salinas and won't. I wouldn't want a buyer of mine to buy there." About 20 readers added their comments, most of which were negative. I must admit I wrote without knowing what I was talking about. I should run for Congress.

The listing Realtor describes Unit 112 West this way:

"This may well be the nicest 2/2 available in Las Salinas. Granite counters, Stainless appliances. Basically a completely new unit. Comes with deeded covered parking. Location is great in the condo project and Las Salinas is extremely convenient to the beaches and shopping center areas."

New Kitchen, New Appliances, New Lighting and Clean Everywhere

I did a quick comparison to the other units currently available at Las Salinas and found that other units are priced less on a price per sq ft basis and that a similar sized unit with a better view but which has not been recently updated costs much higher on a per sq ft and real dollar basis. I have not been inside the other units. I suggest a potential buyer look at several and then determine which works best as far as price, location, view, and most importantly how the units compare as to functionality. If you think about it, moving into a place that appears all new has to make you feel better than moving into a place that you feel you need to paint or repair to make it more livable. Unit 112 West is offered at $229,000.

This unit has a Deeded Covered Parking Space

There are currently 15 homes, condos and townhomes for sale in Key West that are priced under $250,000. CLICK HERE to view the Key West mls datasheet on this unit. And CLICK HERE to see the rest of the photos I took of this unit. This building is about a five minute walk to the South Roosevelt esplanade. You will see walkers, joggers, skaters, bicyclists, and more doing their thing along the scenic waterway. Yes, the ocean sometimes smells. But most of the time it is a scenic delight.
