"On a famed street spanning the heart of Old Town Key West sits this quintessential 3BD/3BA Key West conch house. The charming front porch is framed with bougainvillea and the updated open floor plan opens perfectly to the great indoor/outdoor living room. The kitchen & living room are filled with natural light up to the high vaulted ceilings. Hard wood floors as well as a wall of glass out to the patio & heated pool provide class and comfort. The main house offers a 1st floor bedroom & 2nd floor owner's suite with an office space. The detached 1BD/1BA guest cottage has access off Curry lane, opens onto the sunny patio & pool area that is perfect for entertaining w/ a wet bar & space for dining. Outdoor shower & Bricked off-street parking off Curry Ln. is in the rear of the home."
The Monroe County Property Appraiser records show this home was substantially renovated in 1999. I assume that is when the new addition at the rear of the main house was added. That room has three sets of glass panel doors with clerestory windows above. The view from the inside looking out is captivating. The lot measures 25 Ft wide by 105 Ft deep. The guest cottage at the rear abuts Curry Lane, one of the slowest of the slow lanes in Key West. There is one off street parking space located behind the cottage. I mention this because there is no public view of the back yard, the pool. or the back of the house - thus no need for curtains.
The master bedroom is located on the second floor. There is a little sitting room or office outside the bedroom. A small set of French doors that separate the two areas. The bath fits nicely in the front.
There is a convenience store located a the end of the block. The two best bakeries in town are located on Eaton Street, just one block to the north. Duval Street is a short stroll to the west. There are dozens of cute little cottages and big old mansions to ogle on the way to any destination.What a perfect little Key West home. Style, grace, warmth, whimsy, charm, and location. (And off street parking!)
