This classic Key West Conch House sits tall above the Halifax River offering spectacular sunsets over the forever natural Tomoka Aquatic Preserve on the opposite shoreline. The architect perfected this space with an abundance of windows opening onto the 360 degree covered 2nd story porch which allows for water views from nearly every angle and permits natural light to flood the living spaces. Enter the home and say hello to the outdoors as you are immediately greeted with the serenity of the water in a fabulous living room that overlooks the Intra-coastal waterway and opens directly to the elevated deck. The adjacent island kitchen is the ultimate workspace with a stainless farm sink set into stunning quartz countertops that offer a front row view of the passing boats. Vaulted ceilings hover high above the kitchen and casual waterside dining room where six windows frame the walls with the option to be opened and allow the sea breeze in from the Atlantic just two blocks away. Entertain on the sprawling open air deck with sunset cocktails before having dinner in the covered, screened, outdoor dining room. This main level is home to a private guest suite where the walk-in closet has been transformed into an adorable bunk room for the littlest guests (see photos). The upstairs master suite is the ultimate owners' retreat offering complete privacy and fantastic views opening to a private balcony through a triple pane slider that opens at a touch. This master suite is the ultimate in barefoot elegance with volume ceilings, walk-in closet and a splendid bath with double vanities and private water closet. The ground floor is comprised of a waterfront bedroom suite (currently used as an art studio) full bath and a comfortable living room. This entire floor with private entrance would be an ideal in-law quarters, the ultimate guest suite or simply an extension of the day to day living space as it opens directly to the backyard and the base of the dock. The private backyard is surrounded by healthy green palms and tropical fauna which contributes to the beautiful island atmosphere without the need for the maintenance of a lawn. A private spa sits just inside the white picket fence that frames the top of the vertical seawall. Beautiful dock doubles as an extension of the outdoor living space with a large covered lounging area with two boat lifts and a professional grade fish cleaning station built for two anglers to carve and slice a day's catch efficiently. Kayak davit at the base of the dock for quick access to the miles of pristine shoreline that make up the Tomoka River Basin at your backdoor. An open air "Carribean Shower" is waterside for rinsing off after coming off the boat, from the beach or a daily bath with a view. Bring your toys to this property with large storage spaces on either side that can accomodate your RV, extra vehicles or boat trailers. Two separate garages are extra deep and the unique southerly garage offers an overhead door on both the street side and the riverside for the ultimate workspace for the tinkering craftsman with a view or it could be an ideal space for fishing gear and boat toys right at the dock. The home can be quickly transformed into a storm bunker with hurricane shutters providing peace of mind and insurance discounts. This property is being presented in immaculate "turn-key" condition and pride of ownership is very apparent. Substantial recent upgrades is on file that includes new HVACs.
