Refined Island Living with Authentic Key West Heritage.Nestled in the heart of Old Town Key West and located in the coveted X-flood zone, the highest elevation of the island, this impeccably renovated historic cottage combines timeless charm with modern elegance. Just three blocks from Duval St. and half a block from Truman Annex, this home is ideally situated in a quiet, highly walkable neighborhood adjacent to world-class dining, shopping and cultural attractions.The residence offers versatile living with two to three bedrooms, high ceilings, newly installed impact resistant windows, stunning hardwood floors and rich Dade County Pine walls that radiate warmth and authenticity. The dining area flows into a thoughtfully designed kitchen where Dade County Pine counters meet high- end appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Big Chill gas stove and dishwasher. Built between 1899 and 1907 as one of Henry Flagler's historic railroad homes, the property offers remarkable provenance.

A private backyard is a tropical oasis with fruiting mango, avocado and lime trees, attracting butterflies and offering space for a future pool if so desired.
