About this property

Fran's Place on the Water

This spacious duplex is located in a tropical paradise. The property is on 11th Street, facing east, on the island City of Key Colony Beach at MM 54 in the Middle Keys (near Marathon).

This is a canal-front unit with a 37-foot dock, fish-cleaning table with light, and easy access to both the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico. The home features a new, large 29-foot screened porch fronting the canal (great place to dine), two bedrooms, two baths, great room, carport and laundry room.

The master bedroom has a king bed and the guest bedroom has two double beds. Each bedroom has it's own full bathroom. The unit has been remodeled with a new kitchen, new baths, comfortable furnishings/beds, central air and heat, and tiled flooring.

Membership to a private beach on the Atlantic with fresh water shower and picnic area is included. The beach is a five-minute walk from the unit, as is SUNSET PARK. Beach chairs and beach towels are provided.

Key Colony Beach is an island city that offers a quiet, tropical setting with excellent restaurants, boat rentals, charter boats, par three golf, tennis courts, pickle ball courts, bocce, horseshoes, shuffleboard, basketball court, and children's playground within walking distance. In combination with our remodeled unit, this a winning, vacation location.
