This freshly renovated, canal-front home features 1,828 square feet of charming living space. With an expansive dock located right on Boot Key Harbor, you’ll be five minutes from the Atlantic Ocean or the Gulf of Mexico. A pair of complimentary kayaks invite you to explore Marathon by water, bicycles allow you to cruise the neighborhood, and a sparkling plunge pool offers refreshment on warm days.

Soak up the morning sunshine as you sip coffee by the water, then fix breakfast in the modern kitchen. Two living spaces provide your group with plenty of room to relax. Cool coastal accents create a welcoming atmosphere in the open-concept living room, where you can settle in to watch a movie on the 48-inch TV. The family room is another sunny social space with stylish seating and a 50-inch TV.

The kitchen features granite countertops, a full suite of stainless steel appliances, and a sleek wet bar with a wine fridge and plenty of room for fixing drinks. Four guests can keep the chef company at the kitchen bar; when it’s time to eat, serve family-style meals at a handsome dining table for ten. The expansive dock offers plenty of space for relaxing in the gulf breeze. Choose from an outdoor lounge, a dining table for four, and a sparkling plunge pool overlooking the canal.

This single-story home has three bedrooms, including a tranquil primary suite with a 32-inch TV and a semi-private bathroom with a gleaming double vanity and a remodeled walk-in shower. Additional amenities include free WiFi, kayaks, bicycles, and a washer/dryer.

Could be great, needs TLC
Fantastic location on Marathon. Dock spacious and structurally sound. Loved the bait freezer, boat wash, local neighbors pleasant and very accommodating of boat/trailer (tight streets required moving around cars for entry/exit). Plunge pool clean and refreshing though steep stair entry. Several items could be addressed: sliding doors not functional except one, broken outdoor chairs, lack of sun loungers, grill utensils shot, piercing door open alarms with every entry/exit, broken dock lights/bulbs, no coffee grinder, etc. Ice maker takes a good 2 days to get going to bring some on landing. Large kitchen windows have no shade/blinds - when house south across canal is rented, you're in an aquarium and might as well be staying together. Canal and outside tidal pool nasty with biological and artificial floating debris and flotsam from massive anchorage in bay. Would not let the kids touch the water but saw lots of wildlife (manatees, cuda, lobsters, parrotfish, dolphin). Note there is no master bath - two BD share one jack and jill bath, the other bath is general use. Very little privacy for moms and dads. Appreciate pet-friendliness. Public launch across island means 20 minute ride around, or private bayside launch a few blocks down is very tight but a lot closer, allows paying public. Overall had an awesome week. Seems way overpriced for value anywhere else but may be Keys premium.

Great access
We stayed for 12 nights and it was a great place to stay. We brought two boats and had plenty of room. The ocean and gulf access was easy. The bait freezer helped a ton. The house was beautiful and was equipped with everything that we needed kitchen wise. If this place had an ice machine you would never need to leave. The only complaint that I would have is that the garbage wasn’t taken out to the street prior to our arrival so we had to do it and the garbage quickly added up. The property itself was great, no complaints.
