909 Eaton Street, Key West

The listing Realtor describes 909 Eaton Street in Key West this way:

"Isola Bella is where the Mediterranean meets the Caribbean. Gated and private, this historic Key West home is reminiscent of a Sicilian Villa. The spacious front yard and patio dining area are relaxing spaces adorned by Italian Cypress trees and statues fit for a Roman piazza. Ionic columns frame the welcoming front porch, leading to an interior masterpiece of original Cuban tile floors and custom built cabinetry. The open living area flows into a colorful breakfast nook, where French doors open to the inviting pool and patio. 2 BD/2BA main house with 1 BD/1BA guest quarters, off-street parking and walking distance to the Historic Seaport, White Street, and Duval Street. Featured on the 2009 OIRF Historic Homes tour, this unique property is your chance to experience Old Town Key West with a twist of Sicilian flair. Priced below recent appraised value!"

This is an Old Town home unlike any you have seen before in this blog or in person, of that I am sure. It is definitely worth a look if you are a buyer seeking a really nice home in a good location with a pool and off street parking which is offered at a reasonably affordable price. The house itself was built new in 1958. It is a CBS house with stucco finish with 1312 sq ft of air conditioned living space situated on a 50' X 106' lot.

Although the house has been updated, some original features such as the Cuba tile floors remain to add character to this home. In fact the firs thing I noticed when I entered this home was the floors which are in impeccable condition. The living room alcove is to the left of the front entry. The bedrooms are located to the right. As you pass through the dining area French doors come into view and after that the covered patio and pool emerge.

The kitchen provides all the necessities in a colorful and compact environment. The pool area has both covered and sunny spaces.  CLICK HERE to view more photos of this ingenious property.
