Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
In the heart of the historic Old Town but still tucked away on a quiet side street, this spot is a serene retreat. Passing through the beautifully adorned wrought iron gate, you will find yourself in a private tropical garden facing a French-style home. Inside, crisp white furnishings provide plenty of seating in the breezy living room, away from the Florida heat. The gourmet kitchen will inspire you to cook up a creative meal, while the wet bar might ignite your inner mixologist. Whether you want to share an alfresco dinner with your friends on a shaded balcony or spend a lazy afternoon by a gorgeous pale-blue swimming pool, this home has you covered. Should you want to leave the allure of this peaceful haven, the sights and sounds of Duval Street await just half a block away. Rent a bicycle for a quick ride past the Green Parrot or explore everything the district has to offer – from art galleries to upscale shops and iconic nightclubs, Key West will keep you entertained.
