Description

This property is offered for sale directly by the owner. For Sale By Owner homes, also known as FSBOs, can be a good buying opportunity, because the owner will save up to 6% when there are no brokers involved in the transaction. This leaves more room for price negotiation and potential buyer savings.

(the eye went right over Windley Key and we didn't get even a scratch or a drop of water!) The house actually got loaned out to a clean-up crew immediately after the storm! And with two layers of heavy plywood, the new metal roof is even stronger and heavier than the old roof. (The new roof was just one more "upgrade-renovation".)Many time-consuming and "time restrictive" improvements have been done:Upgraded electric and circuit breaker boxElectric is now underground from pole at highway to house (this process took almost two years to achieve) with additional conduit for fiber-optic cable for computer or tvNew City Water and City Sewer system throughout community, this also took years of HOA dedication to achieve this benefitBrand new roof (a six month wait)Brand New Mini-Split AC system (AC & heat) super quiet!All appliances are either new or in like-new condition*(There is enough room and plenty of electric for a washer and dryerin utility room.)Lowest HOA fees in the Keys!!!

Limited number of wet slips and boat and trailer storage are also available for nominal monthly fees... free community boat ramp... many residents keep their boats on trailers parked in the "swale" on Old Highway just beside U.S. One. Windley Key Mobile Home Park is a unique community in the Florida Keys (mobile homes are gradually being phased out as stilt structures are replacing them.)This cottage is on a "buildable lot" and will not be affected by the building moratorium set to occur in 2023... Village of Islamorada allows either a second story addition built on or an upper deck (or both) added on. Many residents have opted for the native Seminole tiki-style roof but a traditional roof (or even "sails") are permissible. The view from roof-level is magnificent you can see south all the way to Alligator Reef Lighthouse and north past "Hens and Chickens Reef" is all visible! The new metal roof seen in photos was Phase One of an "elevated" project the new roof is a double-layer of plywood covered with a beautiful Key West-style metal roof. An upper deck is now a very affordable improvement for new owners to consider! The breezes are delightful, as well! A deck without a roof would run about $2,500 to $5,000... the allowable elevation limit is 38 feet; (height limits are set by Village of Islamorada).Pets are okay, rentals every quarter okay.Call Owner: Mary Scott (anytime) at 561-389-7695 to come see it!Conch House Unit A-2 on Basin DriveWindley Key Mobile Home and RV Condominium84961 Old Highway, Windley Key, Islamorada(Between Snake Creek and Whale Harbor Cut... ocean side, across street from Fossil Reef State Park!!! 1/2 mile from Theater of the Sea... get an annual membership and go everyday to see the dolphins!!!)Call me!!! 561-389-7695
