It’s not every day that you
find an “Eyebrow” house offered for sale in Key West. Only 100 or so of these
classic houses were built in the Southernmost City – and they are found nowhere
else.
Eyebrow House - Classic Revival Style - Key West |
The two bedroom home at 715 Frances Street just listed by Rudy Molinet and Marquis Properties is a delightful
example of Key West’s own vernacular architecture. The historic restoration has
Dade County pine walls, wood floors, high ceilings and some very special original
features: leaded glass windows and the historic staircase banister. Nice built
in storage makes the most of the under stairway space and the dining room
features built in bookcases.
Storage Under the Stairs Includes Alcoves for Pet Bed Or ? |
Exposed beams and lots
of windows make the kitchen a bright, airy space, and as is typical of Key West’s best homes, there is plenty of
outdoor living space: a wonderful front porch and a screened lanai in the
backyard flows into the indoor living space. There is off street parking and
the large (almost 6,000 sq. ft) lot offers room for a pool, additions and a
lovely canvas for the next owner.
Plenty of Room For Your Imagination |
It would be easy to
convert the dining room to be a third bedroom, or even a downstairs master
suite. This restored home still has lots of opportunities for the new
buyer to paint on its canvas!
