Hemmingway's Paradise! Walk or bike to all that Old town Key West has to offer

Welcome to Hemmingway's Paradise!
Located on an almost hidden enchanting lane in Old Town Key West, this cottage is the perfect hideout for guests. Knowles lane is a very small 1 block single lane street with only a few historic homes built on it. Remodeled to historic requirements in 2023, this home has been meticulously maintained and outfitted for guest pleasure and comfort.
This 3 bedroom and 2.5 bath home is sure to wow guests with its top-of-the-line finishes and decor.
With two historic original front porches, you'll most likely find yourself "front porch sitting" enjoying your morning coffee or enjoying a glass of wine on the wooden porch swing as neighbors walk by and say hello, no traffic on this lane! Even though the home has 2 off street parking spaces, one for a car and one for a golf cart or small compact car, most cars won't drive the small lane.
The home features a teak wrap-around deck with a new hot or cool spa and ladder stairs leading up to the rooftop tanning deck with loungers, a patio mister and tropical foliage where you can soak up the sun during the day and stargaze at night. All deck and garden areas are equipped with timed soaker hoses or drip lines and you can pick your fresh limes and lemons from the potted citrus trees and relax amid the lush tropical foliage and optimal privacy.
The front suite with its large ensuite bathroom has your private front door entry and porch and an additional bathroom door leading to the outside deck.
Front Suite amenities include a Keurig coffee station, mini fridge and microwave to allow you to rise and shine or end your evening at your own pace. The main living area features full corner glass double doors leading to the outdoor deck living area and the weekly maintained new jetted Spa, outdoor patio lighting, outdoor shower, and the ladder to the rooftop tanning deck.
The kitchen offers everything you'll need to create a gourmet meal in home or to chill out and blend up that perfect pitcher of Pina coladas. New stainless appliances including an in fridge craft ice maker to mold up the ultimate large round ice spheres, cubed or crushed ice, a wine fridge, a full pot or K-cup coffee maker and a Nespresso machine for your morning espresso.
Take a short leisurely walk or bike ride to Higgs beach, Duval Street, The Hemmingway House, the Key West waterfront, restaurants, world famous bars and shopping and all that Old Town has to offer. Bicycles with locks, beach chairs and beach towels are also included.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board. Housekeeping is available on request.
