Description

This charming single family home is located on a deep water canal in Marathon, Florida Keys, with quick access to the Gulf and the Ocean. It has 77' dockage with water and electric. Bring your boat and enjoy the great fishing and diving in our area. The house is in a friendly, quiet, desirable neighborhood and has tremendous curb appeal. The tropical landscaping in the front and back yard is very lush with a sprinkler system built in. There is a very large workshop, also a big separate storage building and lots of additional storage next to the carport. Beautiful brick pavers in the driveway and parking for at least seven cars. This is a very bright and happy home with shopping, schools, restaurants, beach and hospital, all conveniently located. Youll love the eight person Jacuzzi which is in a private cozy corner outside, surrounded by tropical copper sculptures on the walls, relaxing and lovely. This house is meticulously maintained by the ORIGINAL OWNERS !!!! Amenities: There has been a complete update of the kitchen and both bathrooms in 2006 as well as new appliances including washer/dryer and dishwasher. New central air conditioning and heat and electric breaker panel as well as a new metal roof. All the windows throughout the house are new impact windows and new impact sliding doors out to the porch and Jacuzzi which makes this house extremely cheerful and light. The floors are light colored tile and the living room is carpeted. The third bedroom is now being used as an office but may also be used as a den. The huge screened porch located off the living room area is the highlight of the house, with a built in corner garden, comfortable chairs, tables, potted plants and hanging orchids make this a garden paradise. The porch looks out onto a stone fountain waterfall surrounded by flowering plants and bushes, also an orchid house is on the side of the house by the Jacuzzi. We welcome all inquiries and questions.
