I love this location because it’s so close to everything. One block off Duval Street and just under a mile to the best beach in Key West: Fort Zachary Taylor State Park. For you history buffs, this home is located at the site of the former Samaritan Hall, an icon in Key West history.

The exterior of the home makes you feel like you’re at an elegant
European villa with a beautiful, private fenced-in tropical garden and lush
landscaping. Its oversized lot means there are three off-street parking spaces
and room for a pool or to expand. For the practical-minded, you’ll be happy to
know this home is constructed of poured concrete on an elevated foundation high
out of the flood zone: built to survive a hurricane! This also makes for low
insurance costs and easy maintenance.
The 2,028-square-foot interior is spacious and gracious
with 10-foot ceilings, Mexican tile and lots of light. The home features three
bedrooms and three bathrooms plus a commercial grade kitchen. The large master
bedroom and bathroom suite has a Jacuzzi tub for four.
As an additional perk, this home is zoned for office
and professional use, which gives you the flexibility to use it as a grand
single family home or to convert it into a professional office or combination
office and residence. Its location near the Key West courthouse would make it
an excellent choice for an Attorney, but it certainly could be used by a doctor, architect
or other professional, as well.
