This private island is a tropical paradise, lush with trees and palms, and the sole residence on the island is a freshly renovated three-story contemporary home with 360-degree water views. The home is both the LARGEST and NEWEST on any offshore island in the Florida Keys. In the clear water around the island is a firm sand bottom ranging in depth from about two feet near shore to a comfortable depth for swimming and snorkeling past the end of the new concrete pier. Neighboring Summerland Key is a small, residential community located 25 miles from either Marathon or Key West and 125 miles from Miami. The main road in the Keys, US 1, crosses Summerland Key, yet every business can easily be reached by boat via canal. The post office, banks, restaurants, grocery store, video rental store, hair dresser, gas station, dentist, deep sea and back country fishing charters, snorkel and scuba diving trips, clothing boutique, sporting goods and fishing or lobster license vendors--all have docks for customers arriving by boat. On the island is a new pool with integrated hot tub and adjoining outdoor bamboo shower with a nearby fire pit and outdoor entertaining area. There's also a main barbecue deck (over 700 square feet) on the opposite side of the house that seats 10+ at a circular picnic table, protected by a thatched cabana. The home was built in 1995 and was just completely updated. This unique home consists of two octagonal structures linked together and surrounded by airy verandahs. At 3,500 square feet, plus another 1,500 square feet of screened verandahs, the home is both the largest and newest on any offshore island in the Florida Keys. You enter the ground floor of the house into a large anteroom and a staircase ascending to the living quarters above. The second floor contains the three bedrooms. The two guest bedrooms are spacious with beautiful Teak furnishings and queen size beds, each with their own full bathroom. Glass french doors lead to an adjoining 12 ft. by 30 ft. balcony that overlooks the pool. The master bedroom features Teak furnishings with a King size bed and boasts a luxurious bathroom with whirlpool/jacuzzi/shower combo. Leading out of the glass french doors is a large private balcony that overlooks the front yard. With the recent installation of separate central air-conditioning systems for the 2nd and 3rd floors, your guests can choose their comfort level for living and sleeping quarters and a full laundry room on the 2nd floor allows you and your guests to bring less to the island. The third floor sports a spacious great room with a 14-foot, beamed ceiling and a wet bar. The bar tops a 300 gallon salt water aquarium stocked with native tropical fish and invertebrates. The dining room offers a spectacular view of the Atlantic ocean and surrounding islands, combined with the great room and sprawling balcony with 35 ft. of glass gives you a one of a kind dining experience. With the unique shape of the house lounging verandah's abound, no matter what time of day or night there is a place to relax with a fabulous view. The fully equipped gourmet kitchen features large side-by-side refrigerator island cook-top with grill, oven, dishwasher and breakfast bar. The kitchen opens onto yet another verandah, which contains a spiral staircase leading to the crows nest balcony. Up here, four stories above the island, you can experience superb bird watching, unparalleled panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, and breathtaking sunrises and sunsets. The crows nest is the maximum height allowed in the Keys giving it what most consider to be the best panoramic view in the Lower Keys. Breathtaking is the word most use to describe the 360 degree view.
