"Transient licensed Conch home located in the heart of Old Town. Lovely front porch and secluded new pool offer low maintenance outdoor living.

Returning visitors will like the location near upper Duval Street. Night time is a lot more quiet on the upper end. There are lots of good restaurants, art galleries, and a few waterholes nearby. South Beach is an easy stroll and Flamingo Crossing is two minutes away for that late night ice cream attack.
