The Old Stone Church located at the corner of Whitehead Street and Julia Street (330 Julia Street) is offered for sale as a Short Sale at the asking price of $899,000 or $184 per sq ft. The property is no longer used as a church but instead has been converted into a unique mix of commercial space and three residential apartments.
330 Julia Street - 1965 |
The building today has a total of 4849 sq ft of interior space which is divided between the commercial space that now houses a gallery and offices plus the three residential apartments. Among the features of this beautiful building are Dade County Pine ceilings and original beams, stained glass windows, hardwood, tile and carpeted flooring, and central air conditioning. Two of the apartments are two bedrooms (each split with a second bedroom on the second floor) and a one bedroom apartment. The commercial space has central air conditioning and the apartments have individual units. The commercial and residential spaces also have individual electric service. This property provides and excellent opportunity for a buyer looking for commercial property located in a prime area of Key West and that offers supplemental income.

I recently showed this property and think it would make a wonderful investment opportunity for an owner/user who would use the commercial space in a manner as presently used (gallery and/or offices). The building is located just five blocks from the Monroe County Courthouse. The present office configuration appeared to be in very good condition. The location would surely attract lots foot traffic as it is located one block south of the Hemingway House and just a couple of blocks from the Southernmost Point. Tourists from all over the world walk the trek past this location daily.
I was able to see the inside of both two bedroom units. One needs a fresh coat of paint and some TLC, the other looked great. All three units rent at market rates so they should provide good cash flow to an investor. The apartment licenses may have been suspended by the City of Key West due to non-payment of sewer bills. A new owner will need to apply to the City for restoration of the licenses.
This property will not stay on the active short sale market for very long, especially at the asking price. I urge serious buyers to contact me, Gary Thomas, 305-766-2642 to schedule a showing.
