Description
The Mermaids House – Old Town, Yearly Rental ! Historic Bahama Conch HouseIn the heart of the Old Town Historic district of Bahama Village Key West, where life in the old days was very different than it is now, is my Conch home which has not really changed much except on the inside. It is private, fully furnished, very clean, and comfortable well stocked home perfect for a very wonderful Key West experience.I have restored the house to keep it’s history, so it has remained a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom with a 6 foot claw foot bathtub( Original)/ shower, pedestal sink, outside private shower, high cathedral ceilings, original hardwood floors, 5 foot sash windows, all Dade County pine, outside back deck for dining,bricked in back yard with comfy furniture for lounging under the 145 year old trees, front porch with seating, washer and dryer and central air conditioning and heat.The main bedroom has a king size bed, the other bedroom has a queen bed and both have unique headboards for reading comfort. There is a view of the Key West Lighthouse from the kitchen and the backyard is tropical and shaded for a long nap on the chaise or hammock.The double back decks are a great place to practice yoga or meditation. Parking in front of my home is private and can fit 1 car and 1 moped. You will be so close to all the action, you do not need a car at all. Walking or biking is the way to see Key West like the locals do. Moped or electric cars are available down the street. If you would like to use my bikes, they are included , there are 4 bikes with lights to use in the yard( you will feel like a local)and the locks are in the baskets to use. The keys are by the front door.I am looking for the longer term rentals since I do not want a lot of traffic through the house. I would like to retire there some day, so this is not just a business for me, it is my home. She was built in 1865, so she likes good company. We think she was once inhabited by a mermaid that a drunken sailor brought home one night long ago. She still remains in the house to watch over her and protect her.My Rates are:January, February and March are $8,000April and May are $6,500June, July , August, Sept are $5,500October , November, December are $7,000I will prorate and combine these rates depending on the start of the lease.Cleaning fee is extra and due upon check in of $300.Keywords: Single Family, Private, Historic Bahama Conch Home, with Fenced in Yard
