Painter's Paradise in Key West

Enjoy our newly renovated, 2 bedroom, 1 and one half bath, conch
style townhouse, nestled in the lush, tropical landscaping of one of
the few gated communities on Key West. A quiet and peaceful retreat,
complete with 24 hour security, awaits you. The downstairs boasts
all new appliances, including dishwasher, washer/dryer and flatscreen
cable TV. Relax with drinks among orchids and palms on the front or
rear decks, or dine indoors at the teakwood table, while enjoying our
growing native shell collection. Always feel comfortable in the
climate controlled environment. Sink your toes into the comfy cotton
rugs or walk barefoot across the shell colored, fully tiled floors.
The walls are decorated with the artist/host's tropical paintings.
The upstairs front bedroom with its double bed, has french doors
opening onto a balcony in the palms. The master bedroom, with its
queen sized antique brass bed, has a view of coconuts right outside
your windows.

A minute's stroll along the lushly planted sidewalk gardens
takes you to a private, palm lined pool; a little further down Golf
Club Drive is the spectacular lagoon pool with its waterfall and
elaborate plantings of flowers and tropical trees.
This paradise is located on the edge of the Southernmost Golf
Course in the Continental U.S.: 18 holes on 200 acres of rolling
fairways, dramatic greens, and serene lakes. Enjoy meeting the
challenges designed by golf legend Reese Jones, such as the
famous "Mangrove Hole", played over a field of thickly intertwined
tropical mangroves.
