Location Type
- Water ViewYou will love the feeling of being surrounded by crystal clear keys water. You know you are in a tropical paradise as you slow down and soak it in.
- WaterfrontThe canals on little torch are special for the lower keys because they are engineered as 'flow though canals' This means that they are opened on both ends so water does not stagnate and new water is constantly flowing by like a peaceful river on all tides. The water in the canal is crystal clear and is perfectly suitable for swimming, kayaking, snorkeling, etc. You will love how serene it is. There is not much boat traffic and it is very peaceful. Also, it is only about 200 yards to the main channel, and it is easy to navigate!

About Richard
The home is owned by a few great friends: a pharmacist, a high-end home builder, and a general contractor who all share a love and passion for the ocean and enjoy the keys lifestyle. We all enjoy bringing our families down for vacationing. We love to fish, dive, and cook our catch!
Richard purchased this House in 2011
Why Richard chose Little Torch Key
We have been coming to the keys for years for fishing, diving and just plain relaxing. We have stayed on most every island, but It was this area that we truly fell in love with. It is only in this stretch of the keys that you can have the best of everything. You find yourself surrounded by complete serenity and the most breathtaking views, and you still have every modern amenity and convenience at your fingertips. The area is removed from the hustle and bustle of the touristy areas, but you are only 25 minutes from Key West. You can reeeeally get the feel of island life without having fast food restaurants or high rise hotels in the nearby area (except Key West). The fishing and diving off of the Little Torch area is the absolute best in the keys. There are several protected marine sanctuaries renowned to have the most pristine and beautiful reefs in the continental US. Offshore, the pelagic species feed aggressively as the Gulf of Mexico pours into the Atlantic. When we found this house, we had to have it....it is awesome!. We knew we found our paradise.
What makes this House unique
Serenity - The home is located in a non-touristy area, at the end of a quiet residential street that has virtually no traffic. It's relaxing! Convenience - Everything is at your fingertips. There are great restaurants and bars nearby, many that deliver. There are marinas, supermarkets, etc. And you're close to Key West without having to live in the madness. For boaters, we are conveniently located on the ocean side of US1, and it is just a 2 minute drive to open water. We have a flow through canal - This is important and little known. Unlike most of the keys canals, ours was engineered with openings at both ends so that the water can freely flow through on both tides, always being replaced by new water. This is important because our water does not stagnate and is perfectly suitable for swimming and snorkeling. Personal connections / discounts - We will give to you our favorite places to go to visit and to eat, etc. We want you to have a great time and we want you to return again and again, so we try to show you the best the area has to offer and steer you away from the not-so-great places. The beautiful sandy , and pristine beaches of Bahia Honda State park is just minutes away. Key deer roam all around Big Pine Key. Kayaking is a big plus and are provided.
