Key West Old town

Tina Masters (Coldwell Banker Schmitt Real Estate Co.) — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 10:51:10 -0700

Living in Old Town Key West gives residents the option, to not own a car. Due to the parking situation and streets, Bicycles, mopeds or walking is the preferred way to move around town. If you do use a car, be aware that parking can be difficult in Old Town. There are however parking lots and garages just off Duval that can definitely help the situation.

The original Key West neighborhood in the west (although perceived as south) is called "Old Town" and comprises the Key West Historic District. It includes the major tourist destinations of the island including Mallory Square, Duval Street, the Truman Annex and Fort Zachary Taylor. It is where you find the classic bungalows and guest mansions.
Generally, the structures date from 1886 to 1912. The basic features that distinguish the local architecture include wood frame construction of one to two-and-a-half story structures set on foundation piers about three feet above the ground. Exterior characteristics of the buildings are peaked "metal" roofs, horizontal wood siding, gingerbread trim, pastel shades of paint, side-hinged louvered shutters, covered porches (or balconies, galleries, or verandas) along the fronts of the structures, and wood lattice screens covering the area elevated by the piers.
PS-There are several Old Town neighborhoods. Among them the Solares Hill area, The Meadows, Downtown Key West, Bayview Park, Casa Marina and Bahama Village. These neighborhoods are loaded with charm. Check out these beautiful streets: William, Frances, Fleming, Southard and Elizabeth. Explore little-know lanes like Bakers Lane, Penny Lane, Love Lane, and Nassau Lane.

Truman Annex Key West Real Estate

Tina Masters (Coldwell Banker Schmitt Real Estate Co.) — Fri, 08 Jan 2010 14:24:28 -0800

Truman Annex Key West

The Truman Annex was named after The Truman Little White House where President Truman and many other Presidents stayed when in Key West. Truman Annex is a very upscale gated community just two blocks from Duval Street. It gives the luxury of being downtown and the privacy of a gated community and off street parking which is a big plus being down town. Many of the homes in Truman Annex are transient Licensed which allows them to be rented by the week whereas the rest of Key West has a 28 day minimum rental period by law. This makes Truman Annex very popular as an investment rental property.
