This cozy 2 bedroom 1full bath, Key West Canal front home has Siesta flair and is a true “turn key” home, completely furnished down to the dishes, even the boat.
Special thought and expertise went into the design and custom remodeling. This is evident everywhere you turn inside and out, with attention to detail and space utilization.
Enter the property on a terracotta walkway through a lush, tropical garden either taking it through the side courtyard to the canal or enter the screened Florida room. The 10 x 30 Florida room is a great place to kick back on the futon and enjoy the breeze as you take in the hundreds of year round flowers from two large Hibiscus trees or enjoy enclosed dining. Enter the home into the living room with built in bookshelves and TV. To the right is the custom kitchen, with new cabinets with fluorescent lighting underneath, all new appliances, built in spice rack with tile, tile counters and back splash and a nice size walk in pantry and a view of the north canal from the sink window. Both master bedrooms and bath are down the hall from the living room. First master to the left has his & her closets and built in TV. In between the bedrooms is the custom built full bath with tiled shower. Main master is at the end of the hall and also has built in his & hers closets, computer desk and TV. This room could also make a nice office or sitting room/den. Through its glass sliders is the slate sitting deck right on the canal that has banana trees that provide ambience along with shade. To the left and four steps down, you will enter the outdoor kitchen also overlooking the canal with built in refrigerator and microwave, a gas and electric grills. Floating in your 35 foot weather protected canal is a 13’ Boston Whaler with a 40 HP Yamaha, that gives you instant access to the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic Ocean, only two canals with this kind of access exist in Key West.
Pick herbs from your garden to spice up your fresh catch of the day.

Because of the limited time to sell and the very low price for this one of a kind unique canal front home, seller will require proof of funds from buyer before any contract will be written. Home is sold as is with no warranty, with buyer’s right to inspect. Approval by neighborhood land management and signing of property lease, rules and regulations for the water front property is required. This home sits on an estimated $1.3 million lot that you lease, just like condos. At present time the land and canal lease is only $684.33 a month. Boat slips in Key West rent for more than that. The best thing about this home although remodeled and converted into a home, is it’s still considered a mobile home by the tax law, because the chassis underneath wasn’t removed. The only taxes you will have to pay is the one time sales tax on the purchase price just like buying a car and a yearly tax, which was $52.00 this year. A note about hurricanes: This home has withstood over fifty years of hurricanes with no damage, even before all the upgrades. In 2005 Hurricane Wilma had the highest water surge level in Key West’s recorded history. The water did not reach into the house. The conversions and remodeling were done to upgrade to a home, not due to hurricane repairs.
Don’t miss this opportunity to have your place on the water in paradise and you don’t need $1.5 million to do so. Everything is furnished, just pack your bags. First $179,900.00 gets it.
