Situated a quarter of a mile off shore the Marathon city, within the Florida Keys, this exquisite Private Island Eden is quite frankly a marvelous place to call home. Boasting with more than 5,000 square feet of superb living area that includes a 2,700 square foot veranda, helicopter landing and launch pad, boat deck and a whole load of other fine amenities, this residence deserves a rightful spot in the world’s top homes list.
Sharing the typical Atlantic Ocean feel, with turquoise waters and calm breezes, this small but impressive island is just a three minutes’ boat ride away from the mainland. One can find a plethora of exquisite dining spots, malls, shopping centers, entertainment areas and parks, thus this residence is close to the fullest of civilization.
It’s not far away from more fabled locations, like the Key West, which is three quarters of an hour away, and Miami, only two hours away. And bear in mind that you’re surrounded by coral reefs, so you can try diving or fishing on the Carolina Skiff, a 21 footer. Beyond the small rocks and cliffs that surround the island, a perfect area for scuba diving, snorkeling and water sports unfolds.
Anglers will find that the East Sister Rock Island is the ideal place to get to, permits and bonefish schools being just a thread away. Furthermore, the Seven Mile bridge, renowned for tarpon fishing, is just five minutes away, by boat. Sailfish, marlin, Wahoo and dolphins can be found to the south, by the Gulf. If fishing is not your main priority, you can just relax and enjoy the charm of this fine island. And last, but not the least, you can view immensely beautiful sunsets and sunrises from this location.
In terms of accommodation, the less interesting part, the residence includes 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, guest house, swimming pool and a whole lot of state of the art amenities. Built back in the 1980s, this gorgeous 1.37 acre property comes at a price of $12 million, or can be rented for $5,000 per week.
