Property Description
Tucked into the sought-after waterfront enclave of Cudjoe Gardens, 51 Sawyer Drive offers the rarest of Florida Keys luxuries: ground-level living above base flood elevation. Built with integrity from solid concrete block and enhanced by Pella windows and a standing seam metal roof, this residence delivers peace of mind and timeless appeal. Boaters will appreciate the 80-foot concrete dock, direct ocean access via a 60-ft wide canal, and proximity to the neighborhood marina. Enter through a covered entry into an airy Great Room with soaring ceilings and newly installed marble-look tile, giving the space a crisp, clean feel. The spacious kitchen features warm wood cabinetry, generous counter space, and casual bar seating—ideal for entertaining. A primary suite retreat includes his-and-hers closets and a spa-like bath, plus an adjacent den that offers flexibility as a 4th bedroom, home office, or studio. The attached 2-car Garage allows plenty of space for all your toys. The tropically landscaped yard with shady palms and pretty brick drive boasts picturesque curb appeal. Cudjoe Gardens offers a full-service marina, fueling station, and a charming canal-side restaurant—all moments from your front door. Just 20 miles to Key West, this is an exceptional opportunity to enjoy world-class boating and tropical elegance without stairs or compromise.
