If you are looking for Old Town charm, location, and a small guest cottage, you ought to consider
611 Margaret Street recently listed by Preferred Properties Key West (that's where I work but this is not my listing). This old Conch house first appeared in the Sanborn Fire Map of 1912. That would indicate 611 Margaret St which was built sometime between the 1898 and 1912 editions of the Sanborn Map. (The large building adjacent to 611 Margaret Street also appears in
the Sanborn Map and was identified as Cigar Factory No.
353. Today the former cigar factory is a residence.)

611 Margaret Street was updated several years ago with a kitchen and bath room renovations, the addition of central air, IPE decking, and a small pool (about 11' x 8'). The cottage in the rear was updated around the same time.
The front porch provides a nice perch for people watching. Inside, a hallway leads from front to rear where the great room is located. The guest bedroom is located on the first floor front. A guest bath is off the bedroom. It has a second entrance off the main hall just off the entrance to the great room.
The master bedroom is located on the second floor. It runs the length of the house and has a contemporary feel. A rear Juliet balcony was added. It offers a view of the rear deck, pool, and guest cottage at the rear. I was taken by the treetop views of the surrounding homes in this neighborhood.
The rear cottage has a small bath and a loft. The cottage would make a great artist's studio or can be used as a guest bedroom. It has a small bath. There is also an outdoor shower.
611 Margret Street is offered at
$749,000.
