1424 Catherine Street, Key West is a cute little 1,274 square foot bungalow built in 1923 and located four blocks east of the old Key West high school (top photo). This area of town is referred to as mid-town. The asking price was just reduced to $630,000 which is $495 per sq ft. That is a very reasonable asking price for Key West.The house sits on a corner lot with white picket fence and off street parking. And a sweet front porch.The house may be a candidate for renovation but is livable as is. The kitchen was updated and has nice views of the rear and side yard. I think there is room for a pool.There is a mother-in-law lockout on the side of the house. This space would feature in any renovation. Until then you could ask your mother-in-law to pay her fair share of the costs of home o...
The newly listed home at 1611 Seminary Street in Key West seems to hover a few inches above the lush green lawn dotted with stepping stones that lead to the front entry. The stark white white house stands in contrast to the neighboring Mid-Century homes in this midtown neighborhood. This place may share the same origin, but it's like the wild child who ran away from home, did something remarkable, and returned home to show off how successful it became. I found a former mls photo (below) that shows this same house before the 'wild child' got reinvented. It is the same view but at looking straight on. A tall white fence is located on the far side of the foliage.The stone pathway leads to a covered walkway on the side of the home. The door opens into the great room. Competing floor to ceil...

Just SOLD, but not by me, 2403 Staples Avenue, which is located in the midtown area of Key West, Florida. I seldom write about homes this part of town because the people that read my blog are usually looking to buy a cute little cottage or a big Conch house in Old Town or maybe a Casa Marina area home on a large lot as opposed to a 1950s - 1960s era home where middle class locals live. But I'm making an exception on this house, because everything about this house is exceptional. I found three photos of 2403 Staples Avenue when it was listed for sale in 2010. Compare the before and after photos that show the facade, the kitchen, and the rear cottage. The transformation is simply amazing. I got a chance to see this home during a recent Sunday afternoon open house. Everyone was impre...
