Overview

Description

A rare opportunity to own a piece of Florida Keys history in the heart of Historic Tavernier. Built in 1934, this authentic Keys cottage dates back to a remarkable chapter in Florida Keys history, and when homes were built with character, craftsmanship & materials that are increasingly difficult to find today. It was an era when Henry Flagler's Overseas Railroad still connected the islands, Ernest Hemingway was writing & fishing in Key West, & the Florida Keys were a quiet collection of fishing villages, artists, pioneers & people drawn to a different way of life. From the original Dade County pine to the architectural details that reflect its nearly century-old roots, this is a home with a story to tell. Surrounded by mature tropical landscaping, the property has that timeless, old-Keys charm that simply can't be recreated with new construction. And the location is just as special as the home itself.

Remarks – Consumer: A rare opportunity to own a piece of Florida Keys history in the heart of Historic Tavernier. Built in 1934, this authentic Keys cottage dates back to a remarkable chapter in Florida Keys history, and when homes were built with character, craftsmanship & materials that are increasingly difficult to find today. It was an era when Henry Flagler's Overseas Railroad still connected the islands, Ernest Hemingway was writing & fishing in Key West, & the Florida Keys were a quiet collection of fishing villages, artists, pioneers & people drawn to a different way of life. From the original Dade County pine to the architectural details that reflect its nearly century-old roots, this is a home with a story to tell. Surrounded by mature tropical landscaping, the property has that timeless, old-Keys charm that simply can't be recreated with new construction. And the location is just as special as the home itself. Tucked within Tavernier's established historic district, you're just a short stroll from Old Settlers Park, Cafe Moka, locally loved restaurants, Sunshine Market, shops & even a spa. It's the kind of community where you can step outside your door, walk to your favorite morning coffee spot, run into familiar faces & enjoy a slower, more connected way of life. And because this is the Keys, access to the water is never far away. A nearby small beach for residents to enjoy the ocean water as well as a launch offers access for kayaks or small skiffs, & a convenient larger boat ramp is just up the road. Additionally, a marina across the road provides an options for larger vessels. Tavernier also puts you right between Key Largo & Islamorada, giving you convenient access to the everyday essentials of both communities. For the person who appreciates historic architecture, original craftsmanship & the beauty of preserving something with a story, this is an opportunity to own something truly special.
