JUST LISTED
907 Washington Street, Key West. This
2,120 Sq Ft home sits on a huge 8
,960 Sq Ft lot (80' X 112') just four blocks from the Atlantic Ocean in the Casa Marina Area of Key West. I dug down into my old shoebox and found a photo of this same home that was taken in 1965 just two years after this house was built. See below.
The listing broker describes the property this way:
"Enjoy island living
in the sought after Casa Marina area. This spacious one level three
bedroom two bath home has a separate one bedroom, one bath guest cottage
and sits on a large beautifully landscaped 8,960 sq. ft. lot. The newly
renovated kitchen has a peninsula bar with seating, double sinks,
stainless appliances and a breakfast nook that opens to a separate
patio. The living and dining rooms open to an expansive covered terrace
and create an ideal indoor/outdoor living space. The master bedroom
features a sumptuous marble bath, loads of closets and a private patio. A
large heated pool is surrounded by lush vegetation and is completely
private. Covered parking, a whole house generator, ample storage and an
excellent location add to the desirability of this special home."
The Casa Marina Area is named after the world famous Casa Marina Resort located two blocks away which extends out to the ocean. While there are a few original houses that resemble the historic homes you are familiar with in Old Town, most of the homes in the Casa Marina date from the mid - 1960s and newer. Most sit on lots that are 5,000 Sq Ft or larger. There are just four houses on this particular block including a home formerly owned and renovated by author Judy Blume. Each house on this block except one has been renovated and that one is being updated at this time. Values in the Casa Marina Area continue rise year after year due partly to the size of the lots and also the proximity to the Ocean and easy access to Old Town.
Buyers who are looking for a full time home or a second residence will love the spacious covered lanai and and sunny pool. Imagine entertaining friends and family in January when it's freezing up north. I remember shoveling snow. It was horrible.
Better yet imagine walking just a couple of blocks to Higgs Beach to dine at Salute, play volleyball, or tennis or just hang out and get a tan. Louie's Backyard is a stones throw as well. You can walk or Uber to Upper Duval Street. Your friends will be so jealous.
