Just Listed by Preferred Properties Key West - 285 Golf Club Drive. This 1600 Square Foot home is located in The Sanctuary at the Key West Golf Club Community.

44 Kingfisher Lane - Key West - Bank Owned

Just Listed - 44 Kingfisher Lane, Key West.  This 780 sq ft two story cottage two bedroom cottage is ready for immediate occupancy.  This BANK OWNED property surprised me with all of the upgrades it has including first floor travertine marble floors, crown molding, and custom cabinets in the kitchen and living room. There are new impact wind resistant windows throughout the house. The exterior Hardiboard siding helps make this a home-safe-home and a place that will be less expensive to insure year over year.  Whats-more the house is nestled away at the far back side of the Kingfisher Lane cul de sac at the Key West Golf Club Community. The house is located out of view but just to the right side as viewed in the aerial photo below.

When I stepped inside the front door of this new listing I immediately knew the home had been lovingly maintained by the former owner. Everything was and is first rate in this place.  All of the homes are laid out pretty much the same. You enter into the home with the kitchen on one side and the stairway to the second floor opposite the entry door. The living area is located at the rear where French doors open out to the rear deck. A half-bath is located under the stairway. This home has a bonus feature of built in storage under the stairs plus custom cabinets in the living area.

There are two bedrooms on the second floor each of which has a vaulted ceiling.  The front bedroom has a laundry closet (pictured below). The master bedroom has built-in chest of drawers. The four windows in the master bedroom give this space the feel of being in a tree house that overlooks the fourth hole at the golf course. I snapped a photo of the golf course shortly after a brief rainstorm.

Besides making windstorm insurance rates much more affordable, wind impact resistant windows and glass panel doors do not require a handyman to button them up in the event of a storm. And they always allow the owner to look outside and see what's going on instead of having to peek through openings in shutters.  CLICK HERE to view more photos I took of 44 Kingfisher Lane.

 The Key West Golf Club Community has two pools, a fitness center, and block after block of beautifully maintained homes many of which overlook some part of the golf course or the interior gardens within the development. The golf course is public so no membership is required. In less than two months homeowners here will start to decorate their homes for Christmas. This place always looks great during the holidays. I've had several potential buyers say something like "I don't play golf." Well, you don't need to play golf to enjoy the views and live the near country club lifestyle at one of the most affordable prices in Key West based on a price per sq ft basis. 44 Kingfisher Lane is offered at just $319,900 or $410 per sq ft.

13 Kingfisher Lane - Key West Golf Club

Just listed - 13 Kingfisher Lane at the Key West Golf Club. This remodeled 1100 sq ft town home is the best priced three bedroom, two bath unit available and is offered at $375,000.

Twin sets of French doors expand the main floor living area out to the wrap-around porch that over looks the adjacent nature preserve. The screen enclosed rear porch has views of the golf course.

 The home has new hardwood floors on the main floor, new kitchen with granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, and custom cabinetry. There is even a built-in breakfast bar.

A unique feature to this unit is the half bath plus hidden laundry room located on main floor. Bi-fold doors open from inside the bath to reveal the laundry which is cleverly hidden away under the staircase.

 

The master bedroom with en-suite bath are located at the rear of the home on the second floor. The bedroom has a vaulted ceiling which dramatically expands the living space but still keeps the space in perspective to the home as a whole. Newly installed impact windows look out to the golf course. There are two more bedrooms plus a shared bath on the second floor. 

The Key West Golf Club has two community pools, one which is gi-normous, the community center and fitness center (included in the HOA fees), and expertly maintained streets and grounds that make this place so picture-perfect.  You will enjoy driving home through the lovely tree lined streets with each house having a white picket fence and differing architecture.  13 Kingfisher Lane is unique unto itself and it is pretty as a picture to boot.

The Key West Golf Club is an 18 hole public golf course.  CLICK HERE to view MORE PHOTOS of my new listing.

The home is currently occupied by a five year resident who spotlessly maintains the home. The lease expires in April and the tenant is willing to stay or leave depending on the wishes of the new buyer. I would encourage buyers looking for an investment property to consider the cost savings of not having to pay some property manager ten to fifteen percent of your monthly income just to collect your monthly rent.  Property managers provide useful services, but one is not necessary if this tenant stays put.
