708 White Street, Key West

I attended a roving broker's open house event late Wednesday afternoon at a several locations in the Old Town and Casa Marina Areas in Key West including the beautiful home pictured above at 708 White Street. I recall having been in this home during a Sunday open house just after it was built in 2005.  But I had no real recollection of what the house looked like so yesterday's event made it all new for me. Key West is known for its historic homes. This is new construction which does not copy existing homes. Instead has its own classic aesthetic exterior which features first and second story porches, verandas, and decks. There is a white picket fence and bricked off street parking for at least two cars.

This is a very large house by Key West standards - 4598 square feet divided between two floors. You enter the home in a foyer with doors on either side going into a main floor study or guest bedroom as it has a full bath and the dining room located opposite. You move further into the living room on the left rear which has a 24 ft ceiling. You will look to the right to see an expansive kitchen with breakfast bar plus an adjacent informal dining area. You pause, look up at the ceiling in the kitchen and entry and realize they are 10 ft high. 

The study is located to the left side of the foyer. The formal dining room is located opposite. Brazilian cherry floors, plantation shutters, and tray ceilings are among the features used throughout the house.

There are first and second floor master suites plus additional guest bedrooms on the second floor. Both master suites are very large. The first floor bedroom has doors which open out to the pool. The second floor doors open out onto a covery balcony overlooking the pool and gardens below.

This home has four bedrooms with en-suite baths and walk-in closets plus additional storage. There are first and second floor laundries plus utility room.
