The listing Realtor, not me, describes this home this way:
"Built to last, this spacious split-level home is situated on a sunny corner lot in the neighborhood that is Key West's best kept secret. The lower level has three guest bedrooms with shared bath and a spacious master suite with ample closet space and a private entrance via the large covered lanai. The upper level consists of a open great room with 9 foot ceilings, multiple windows and French doors opening out to the swimming pool and tropical gardens. A chef's kitchen features Decora cabinets, stainless steel appliances and Corian counter tops. Features such as storm-rated windows and doors, Colombian barrel-tile roof rated for 200 MPH, and color-tinted stucco, result in low insurance and maintenance costs. Come see today what's going on!"Locals may recognize the area as being within easy walking distance to Higg's Beach or Smather's Beach. Most of the homes in this area have been updated. This is an area where most homes are owner occupied as opposed to parts of Casa Marina, the Meadows, and Old Town where many of the houses are second homes, some of which are used as vacation rentals. You won't be seeing any Conch Trains going up and down these streets with speakers barking out information on the houses. This is a quite neighborhood.
As I walked inside the foyer my eyes were drawn upward to the great room that was filled with late morning sunshine. I could not help but notice the elegant travertine marble floors and baseboards (which are carried throughout the house). When I reached the top stair my eyes were then drawn through the impact glass doors and out to the sunny pool. Pools and outdoor living spaces are among the prime reason people move to Key West and this home has a lovely pool and outdoor entertaining area. The rest of the yard is very nicely landscaped.
The master bedroom with en-suite bath and large walk-in closet is located on the lower level along with three other bedrooms.
