1116 Seminary Street, Key West - Buying Opportunity in the Casa Marina Area

The listing Realtor describes 1116 Seminary Street located in the Casa Marina Area of Key West this way:

"LOCATION, LOW MAINTENANCE & HIGH CEILINGS... This property has everything you want! The private front porch is crisp and freshly painted waiting for you to enjoy your morning coffee. As you walk into the front door you are greeted with an open floor plan with high ceilings, bamboo flooring, large windows and french doors with the outdoors peeking into every opening. The large master bedroom was added on in 2004 and has an en-suite bathroom, walk in closet and two sets of french doors that open to the fully decked backyard. The kitchen opens up to the outdoor space which includes a modern, perfectly sized swimming pool."

I looked in my old shoebox and found a photo of the same home taken 55 years ago. The facade is a locally manufactured stone facing called "Indian Stone". There was a trend in the 1950s to update ones' home by adding "Indian Stone" siding over the original wood siding. The stone facade has been painted white and presents nicely to the street. Today there are two off street parking spaces as well as the expansive bricked entry.

The interior of this home has been updated to provide contemporary living spaces. You enter into open concept living area which flows past the kitchen at the rear and out to the pool. That's the view everybody wants to see when they return from work or the beach.

The third bedroom is located at the front of the house. This owner uses this as a media room. The sofa sleeper converts to a bed for the occasional guest.

The second guest bedroom is located on the east side of the main entry. It is a spacious room with a nice garden view.  A door opens into the spacious guest bath which has a separate entrance off the main living area. 

1116 Seminary Street is located about six blocks north of the White Street Pier (photo below shows the pier in the 1970s) and Higg's Beach. The annual 4th of July fireworks display will occur again this year from that pier. It's a comfortable walk to one of the community's favorite events. Faustos' Food Palace is two blocks to the north. The recently Key West city hall is located across the street. There is no traffic access into or out of the parking onto Seminary Street. Oh, and the Dairy Queen is locate about five minutes away as well.
