American Paradise - Manatee Bay in Grassy Key

Imagine gazing across a large, sparkling swimming pool to see a natural in-ground aquarium .. big enough to swim in, and filled with tropical fish, tarpon and lobsters. It has crystal clear water, and is accessed by way of a sand-beach entry; beyond that sits the endless expanse of the Gulf of Mexico. The dock accommodates large boats drawing 5' + and you have instant access to Florida Bay, the Gulf and the Atlantic. The sunset views here are endless, and defy description. These waters are considered some of the finest sport fishing grounds in the entire world.

This very large upscale  home sits on over 3 sprawling acres of prime landscaped property in a premiere area. Ten minutes north of Marathon, and only 15 minutes drive from Islamorada, Grassy Key is a sleepy little village of waterfront home on large estate properties, very private and quiet, far from the seasonal madness. Entering the property from its Morton Street entry, one is greeted by tropical flowering plants and majestic palm trees; the long meandering driveway winds past a tennis court to the grand house.

This immaculate home features a large upscale kitchen with custom cabinets and granite contertops, a large TV room with Big screen TV and a large, airy great room which opens to a spacious screened patio beside the heated pool. The Main level has 2 wings; one wing has a very private master suite with king size bed and the other wing has a King master suite with bath,  2 double beds and  2 twins.   The third master suite with king size bed, sits atop a natural wood staircase and offers the most stunning views of all. This suite has its own private screened porch.
