Description

Situated just offshore in the Lower Florida Keys, Cook's Key Lime Cottage offers a sublime blend of modern comfort and tropical allure. Perfect for avid fishermen and outdoor enthusiasts, hospitality entrepreneurs with a desire for an entirely unique Florida Keys experiential property to add to their portfolio, or those seeking a piece of the Florida Keys to where they can escape. You are purchasing the current home plus an empty buildable adjoining lot. For nearly 100 years this lot was the previous site of the island's namesake, Captain Percy Cook's Fishing Lodge. Now cleared except for a small primitive structure that was part of Captain Percy's lodge, it's ready for its next chapter. Beautiful inside and out, the Key Lime Cottage beckons with a host of enticing features tailored for the discerning buyer. Step inside to discover a cozy haven, where the warmth of home meets coastal chic. The primary bedroom is nestled in the rear of the home for privacy. In addition the home boasts a unique sleeping loft, complete with a lofty 7-foot ceiling at its center, offering ample space for relaxation or extra guests. A beautifully finished bathroom offers a sanctuary of style and comfort. Prepare your fresh catch in the full kitchen, equipped with a gas stove, refrigerator and plenty of counter space. A newly refinished dock awaits, ready to launch you into aquatic adventures. With direct access to some of the finest fishing and diving spots in the Florida Keys, it's a fisherman's paradise with no canals to navigate. Just hop on your boat and away you go. Live in harmony with nature with solar panels generating electricity and rainwater collection. Surrounded by mangroves and lush natural spaces, these homes offer a private oasis where you can commune with nature. Watch dolphins play just offshore and let cool ocean breezes sweep through the open cottage windows. Embrace the tranquility of private island living, just a short ten-minute boat ride from Big Pine Key.
