Enjoy staying in this wonderful two story double porch classic that was recently fully restored with great care. The house, we believe, was originally built across town on Caroline Street before 1900. Sometime around 1908 it was cut in half and dragged by mules to it's present location. This home features heart pine floors and pine walls, marble counter tops, glass tile and custom cabinetry throughout. The master suite has a deep soaking tub, bidet and walk in shower with body sprays and a separate dressing/wardrobe area.
There are three additional spacious bedrooms painted with the vibrant colors of the caribean. The kitchen has a gas cook top, oven, wine refrigerator and top of the line stainless appliances ready to prepare the finest meals. The dining room lends itself to dinner parties very well. The living room has a large TV for viewing movies on your nights home. Two sets of French doors lead out to the lushly landscaped and lighted yard with tropical plants and specimen palms.
The old cistern was transformed into a glass tile pool that is heated and surrounded by a tropical Ipe hardwood deck. Evenings spent outside are beautifully lighted. The entire property is gated and fenced for privacy. Dine outdoors under the large old Sappadillo trees.
This home is located on the corner of White and Von Phister between the beach and White Street Art District in a neighborhood of other large historic homes with wonderful tropical gardens. Duval Street is within walking distance. There are great restaurants, film and theaters nearby. This is a lovely home to enjoy your Key West stay and you may never want to leave.. |
