Property Description

Very few things in life live up to the hype--but living on ''The Creek'' exceeds it. The location is world-class, the people-watching and boating scene never gets old, and the level of construction top-notch. What makes this property even more extraordinary is that the home itself now matches the setting. Following a meticulous two-year, top-to-bottom renovation, this residence was completely reimagined--from structural improvements to the finest design details--resulting in a flawless, move-in-ready showpiece. The main living level commands attention the moment you walk in, with dramatic vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams, and an open-concept living and kitchen area designed for unforgettable entertaining. Two bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms complete this floor with style and comfort. The entire third level is dedicated to a private primary suite that feels like a retreat in the sky. Wake up to elevated views over the Creek from your own private porch, admire the craftsmanship of the tongue-and-groove ceilings, and enjoy a stunning spa-style bathroom featuring a soaking tub within the shower and--finally--a large walk-in closet rarely found in Keys homes. The ground level offers a fully independent guest quarters with its own bedroom, bathroom, and full kitchen. Two functional garages with durable coated floors and bright LED lighting, plus a cabana bath accessible from both inside and outside for pool days. And then there's the backyard--where this home shifts from impressive to unforgettable. A full outdoor kitchen, heated pool, and hot tub set the stage, but the dock steals the show: deep-water dockage with two boat lifts (22,000 lb and 18,000 lb) and plenty of space for visiting boats, because friends will come. Tropical landscaping, an exterior elevator, and thoughtful details throughout complete a property that simply refuses to compromise. If you're looking for ordinary, keep scrolling. If you want a home you'll never get tired of walking into, this is it.
