The Space:

As you step outside of Vaca House, you'll be greeted by an outdoor living space featuring an outdoor kitchen, complete with a cabana and grill. A full bathroom is conveniently situated by the pool area. You can savor ample outdoor lounge space by the heated pool, enjoying the breathtaking views and sunsets that make this home a gem in the Florida Keys. Boating enthusiasts will particularly appreciate the location, with easy access to both the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean. The deep water dock can accommodate boats of up to 30 feet, including motors, and offers convenient features like a fish cleaning station, water, and electricity. Please note that the owner's boat is kept on the lift and is not for renter use, but this doesn't impact the available dockage.

On the ground level of the home, you'll find a fantastic open floor plan with a spacious living room and a luxurious kitchen. A beautiful dining area with an 8-seat table completes the picture. Large floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding glass doors frame the incredible view, and there's a bedroom with two twin beds as well.



The second level of the home features a generous master suite with a private bathroom. The master bath boasts his and her vanities, a spacious tub, and a stand-up shower. Exiting the master bedroom, you'll discover a relaxing balcony, the perfect spot for unwinding with a glass of wine or a good book. Two additional bedrooms feature king-sized beds, and a fourth bedroom comes with two twin beds, each with adjoining bathrooms. You'll also find a desk in the wide hallway.



Nearby, you'll have access to two public beaches and a state park. Coco Plum is just a 5-minute drive away, Sombrero Beach is 15 minutes from the home, and Curry Hammock State Park is reachable in 8 minutes.
