If you have been dreaming of buying a waterfront home in Key West as either a full time residence or maybe as a vacation home, the recently listed one bedroom waterfront condominium at Key West by the Sea may be the place you have been waiting for. I went over to Smathers' Beach this morning at sunrise to take a couple of photos for today's blog. This is my favorite time of day. There were singles and a few couples either walking on the beach or sitting under palm trees waiting for the sun to pop up. I saw one lady doing yoga excises. This is why so many people move to Key West - to be able to live this
healthy lifestyle and experience the joys of this earth during the few
years we have here. While we do get our rainy days, we have many more
days like today where the sky is a kaleidoscope of colors. Two young guys waited till the sun popped out so they could take muscle selfies with the sun showing their physiques. Other people were jogging or riding bikes along the esplanade that is South Roosevelt Boulevard as it winds its way from the Casa Marina Resort to the entrance to the island that is Key West.
The listing Broker describes 2601 South Roosevelt Blvd. #404A this way:
"Stunning direct Atlantic Ocean and beach views from this light filled one bedroom and one bath unit. The open floor plan is designed for entertaining. Beautiful finishes with bright kitchen and spacious master bath. The in-unit washer and dryer is a coveted convenience Key West By The Sea, is a secure gated community with 8 acres of lushly landscaped property featuring two swimming pools, two tennis courts, and sandy Smather's beach directly across the street."
This is a one bedroom one bath unit with 754 sq ft of living space plus the balcony that overlooks the ocean. Not all condos at Key West by the Sea have washers and dryers in the unit. This one does and that is a positive feature. The building also has an elevator which is another very valuable feature as well. The FAA noise abatement program is about to be implemented there with
new a/c, impact doors and windows at
no cost to the owners. The A
building will be the last
one to receive about 4 years from now.
The buildings are part of a very healthy condominium association which is professionally managed. Monthly condo fees for
this unit are $446.10 and include cable TV,
exterminating, building maintenance, building insurances, common area
and pool maintenance, security, and management. The association
is strong. Some of the owners here have lived at this development for
decades. The rules and the way the place is managed reflect the values
that have kept KWBS stable throughout the years. While owners may rent
their units, they may not rent them until after one year of ownership
and then the rental must be over 90 days. This has prevented the
community from be destabilized by turning the condos into a resort like
hotel. Don't get me wrong, living here is already like living in a resort. But the rules prevent it from becoming one. There are
two large pools one which is heated the other is solar heated. And there are two tennis courts. The spacious common areas include
garden spots populated by living orchids and babbling water features.
The one story building at the end of the south pool is the community center and on-site property management for the property. While I don't go out here a lot, I can attest that the grounds are always in perfect order. The buildings were painted this past year.
