Fully furnished, turnkey, and just minutes from downtown Key West, this beautifully renovated 1-bedroom, 1-bath waterfront cottage with a spacious loft is the perfect island retreat or investment property. Whether you’re looking for a full-time residence or a short-term rental opportunity, this home is ready to go—complete with all furnishings, décor, and essentials. Tucked along a quiet canal and backing up to a protected state preserve, the property offers ultimate privacy with a 60-foot concrete seawall, RV power and sewer hookups, and a fully fenced tropical backyard shaded by mature Gumbo Limbo trees, illuminated at night and designed with low-maintenance landscaping, artificial turf, and paver pathways.

The interior features a brand-new kitchen and bathroom, new appliances (including refrigerator, washer, dryer, and freezer—all less than a year old), a Mitsubishi split unit, updated electric, all-new lighting, and a whole-house water filtration system. The home has been fully drywalled and insulated, with thoughtful design by a residential interior designer and flexible configurations to maximize square footage. The shaded carport offers additional space for a laundry area, art studio, or workshop. Enjoy 2–3 off-street parking spots, a full security system, and motion lights for added peace of mind.

Best of all, this cottage is ROGO exempt, with no association fees, and boasts a Key West address without the city’s restrictions. A wide bike path allows easy electric bike access to Key West proper just six miles away, and a neighborhood boat launch at the end of the street puts you on a direct path to Snipe and Marvin Keys. With charm, updates, and location, this one-of-a-kind cottage is truly island living made easy.
