Just Listed by Preferred Properties Key West is
1033 Catherine Street which is a cute-beyond-belief two story home located in the
Old Town area South of Truman. The listing Realtor describes this 1960 sq ft property this way:
"Live in a Tropical secluded single family residence, located in X500 of Old
Town. Built in 1988 with all the characteristics of a vintage Key West Style
home with off street parking. This 2 story home is unique because the great room
is on the second floor, to take advantage of the foliage with wrap around
terraces, up to date gourmet kitchen with striped mahogany cabinets, granite
counter tops stainless steel appliance and full bath. On the first level you are
greeted by cathedral ceilings over an additional living space, 3 bedrooms, 2
bathrooms and a laundry area. The hallway leads you to a covered deck with a
heated plunge pool. This home is located close to restaurants, houses of worship
and the famous Duval Street. Current Insurances, Wind, Flood, and Hazard is
$5562."
When you first enter this home that was built new (not remodeled and expanded) in 1988, you assume it is a traditional home. But you'd be wrong. Yes there is a very comfortable living room located just inside the front door. The vaulted ceiling abundant windows give this space a very comfortable setting for every day living. A broad hall on the left provides access through the house. There is a guest powder room located just past the living room. That powder room also serves as the bath for the adjacent bedroom which is the first of three bedrooms in this home.
The broad staircase leads to the second floor of this unconventional home where the great room, kitchen, and a third bathroom are located. This space is bathed in muted light from all four sides of the living space. A wrap-around second floor balcony provides additional outside area for taking in our wonderful year around weather. What looks like a simple little Key West cottage from the street becomes a modern large living space that must be seen to be believed.
There's a cute plunge pool and deck area at the first floor rear. The photos below don't do the space justice.
