About this property
Home w/ 2nd Story Pool & Spa w/ Open Water Views
Buchanan Layton House
The Buchanan Layton House features some of the most picturesque open water views in the continental United States.
From the extravagant dock that provides safe harbor for any avid boaters needs, you will look out into the infinite turquoise sea and find peace at last.
Allow yourself to be born again after soaking in the scenes of palm tree covered oceans, that come with a dip in either the 2nd story pool or spa (no jets).
When you’ve finished, retire to the 1000 sqft. master captains quarters and find that the stunning views go along with you. A bed fit for a king, marble bathroom with tub, large shower, and water closet all constitute the 2nd story master suite.
Head down stairs and find panoramic ocean views that encompass the first floor living area. As well as a fully stocked kitchen & dining room that can provide for the entire family. Washer & dryer are also located on this floor.
Lastly but not least, find yourself enjoying a cocktail at the 3rd floor bar, overlooking the captivating bay waters. You may also enjoy some time at the card table, play a game of billiards, or lounge watching television in the home’s second living area.
Boasting over 4,400 sqft of interior living, and just under 17,000 sqft of property, you won't ever feel cramped in this enchanted keys villa. The home features 4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, an expansive loft & sleeps 10 comfortably.
