Constructed by shipping mogul Amos Roberts in 1859, this quintessential, prestigious Key West home exemplifies elegant tropical living. Superb renovations in 2006-07 perfect the ideal haven for entertaining with modern convenience in the heart of Old Town.
With the island's best possible location (700 block of Fleming), the beach, historic seaport, and dozens of Old Town restaurants and boutiques lie within steps of the front gate.
Inside, the new professional-grade stainless steel and slate kitchen, spa bathrooms and Kable lighting systems resonate with modern comfort, and the high ceilings, Dade County Pine floors/walls, and original glass pane windows evoke a 19th century elegance. The property features three bedrooms, two master baths, three half baths, a grand staircase, a formal dining room, a library, a study and a separate media room.
Outside, a covered terrace and private balconies (constructed with an exceptional Brazilian hardwood: ipé) lead guests to the large heated pool, travertine stone pool deck and lush tropical landscaping. Ceiling fans and custom lighting allow for comfortable year-round use of all covered outdoor areas.
Should they choose, guests may also keep in touch with the rest of the world from anywhere on the property by connecting to the wireless DSL.
Come and enjoy this beautiful island in one of its most beautiful properties!
