1108-1112 southard street

It's a rare opportunity in Key West when an impeccable Old Town compound becomes available. A gorgeous renovation designed by architect Michael Ingram of two historic homes sited on a perfectly located corner lot creates the perfect six bedroom, seven and half bath family home. The main house at 1108 Southard, reportedly the working-vacation home of famed composer and conductor Leonard Bernstein, is in the Eyebrow style with a traditional living room with Dade Pine walls, a large dining room with a vaulted ceiling and wall of windows and an adjacent fully equipped modern kitchen. This stunning room opens through French doors to a spacious covered exterior living area. There is a main level primary bedroom suite and a separate light-filled office. Upstairs are two beautifully appointed bedroom suites. One of these suites is a second primary bedroom and bath and steam shower opening to a private balcony with rooftop and rear yard views. The ''guest house'' at 1112 Southard Street has a large living room with Dade Pine walls and a gorgeous dine-in kitchen. Also on the main level is a sunny bedroom with ensuite bath and separate exercise studio with a full bath and steam shower. The second floor is composed of two bedrooms with ensuite baths separated by a living area with a wet bar with refrigerator drawers. The two homes open to a Craig Reynolds designed tropical garden featuring a pool with spa and waterfall. The coral stone paved courtyard has multiple sitting areas and is perfect for relaxing and outdoor entertaining. Looking for that rare historic home, full of character but with all the modern amenities, perfectly executed...this is it!
