Looking for island living but not interested in buying your own private island?

I often receive calls for the island listings I offer and although the typical buyer doesn't have 15 to 20 million just to run out and buy a new property, you can find great deals for under $3 million where you are removed from the hustle and bustle of the cars, scooters and everyday city noises but at the same time have all the amenities of everyday living with even your groceries delivered to your door. Allow me to introduce 50 Sunset Key to you located just a five minute ferry ride from the Westin Resort in Key West. Less than 10 years old offering 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths just under 2000 sq ft. The beautiful french doors open to the generous back deck with a hot tub and heated pool with outstanding porches and lush landscaping. On island you have private beaches, tennis court, spa and a gourmet restaurant and don't forget your golfcart is included.

Buying a waterfront property ~ a few things you should ask.


Thinking of buying a waterfront lot or residence, there are a few things you should consider when buying. 

Learn about the water, how is the access during high and low tide. How deep is your access and what does the bottomlands consist of.
 
Does the land extend all the way to the water, do you have bottomland, does the survey stop short, Is there any surveyed, platted or dedicated designation of that land?

Talk to someone from the HOA if there is one.
 
Always review the plat map and the historical plat maps to the property.

Are there any easements to the property, water, etc If there is a dock is it maintained by you or a community or association?

Review the covenants, restrictions, declarations or similar encumbrances to the land and review them

What local, state and federal ordinances restrict (if any) control the use of the waterfront?

Now I would like to introduce 32 Hilton Haven Unit 8 a condo located on the Gulfside in Key West just off North Roosevelt near the City Marina and Key West Yacht Club. Please call Monika today for this great piece of Key West Real Estate or other Key West Real Estate Investments you may be looking for.
