1424 Petronia Street, Key West - Short Sale

Sometimes you have to look a little harder and search a bit further to find one of those hidden deals that makes real estate buying so challenging in Key West. 1424 Petronia Street, Key West, is a case on point. It is a rare Short Sale and a rare Legal Two Unit property.  It sits behind a six foot fence at the corner of  Pearl and Petronia Streets in the Meadows Area of Key West. Many of the neighboring homes have been updated.
The Monroe County Property Appraiser records show the lot as measuring an irregular 74.25 feet deep by 36.6 feet wide. The house has 2459 square feet of living space. The living space was previously described this way:  Downstairs has an open feel with a large kitchen/living room.This opens out to a private covered patio and pool area. There are 2 new mini split ductless ac units installed in January 2016 downstairs. A bedroom/office area with full bath, and a 2nd large bedroom and bath are downstairs, with a 3rd bedroom/bath upstairs in the loft . The 2nd apartment space has an airy 1 bedroom, 1 bath, with a 2nd sleeping area in the loft, and a private deck, off of the living room.

When I stood in the street taking photos of the house I imagined all kinds of things I could do if I were to make this place back into a single family home.  I personally think the highest and best use would be to convert the house back into a single family home. I might eliminate part of the structure in favor of a more open living area.  The simple deed of replacing the front six foot fence with a proper white picket fence would make this house so much more inviting.
