The house is accessible via stairs leading to wrap around porches. The kitchen is well-equipped with all a chef needs to prepare meals. A laundry room is located on the main floor just off the kitchen.
For additional sleeping arrangements, a loft upstairs—accessible by built in ladder—features a queen-size bed and a day bed with a twin mattress, making this home perfect for families or small groups looking to enjoy the best of the Florida Keys.
