About the Florida Keys and Key West.........
Each island (or key) in the Florida Keys is a unique paradise in itself with
many attractions in addition to normal offerings that make Florida a famous
vacation destination. Real estate and homes for sale in the Florida Keys are
often located close to the ocean, placing their residents near swimming,
snorkeling, diving, and fishing. The main regions of the Florida Keys are Key
Largo, Islamorada, Marathon, Big Pine Key and the Lower Keys and at the end
of the string of islands - Key West.
Key Largo’s Caribbean Club was the filming site for this destination’s
namesake film. The Holiday Harbor Marina in Key Largo is the permanent home
of the African Queen, a famous Hollywood boat, and also of the Thayer IV of
“On Golden Pond”. Other major attractions on Key Largo include the Albury
House, the Caribbean Shipwreck Museum and Research Institute, John
Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, and several good diving sites.
Islamorada, considered to be one of the premier destinations for
sportfishing in the world, is predictably famous for its excellent fishing
charters, as well as for its restaurants, kayaking, parasailing, and sunset
cruises.
Marathon is well known for its central location and the opportunities for
fishing, camping, relaxing, dining, and eco-touring. Big Pine and the lower keys
are also filled with attractions, including Bahia Honda State Park, the
endangered Key Deer, Looe Key Marine Sanctuary, and Naval Air Station Key
West. Key West itself is full of restaurants, shops, resorts, art galleries,
museums, campgrounds and places to dive, swim, fish, and even visit haunted
houses.

*Old Town Key West somewhat resembles an early New England town.
There are some homes in Old Town that date back to the 1800's. In those
days, Key West citizens were very wealthy from wrecking, sponging and
cigar producing. The home builders adorned the homes with elegant details
and gingerbread - fancy swirls designs and forms cut out of wood.
Conch house is the word we use for about 5 different style homes in the
Florida Keys but mostly in Old Town Key West. The "Classic Revival" was a
very popular architectural style in the early 1800's. This style has well-
proportioned rectangular forms with gabled roofs and columned porches.
The "Eyebrow house", unique to Key West, was designed to keep sun and
heat out of the rooms upstairs by having a roof overhang supported by
corner beams over the windows. "Bahamian" style houses were designed
to withstand hurricanes while taking advantage of the tropical breezes on the
island by having large wrap-around porches and floor to ceiling windows.
Each window has a wooden shutter. The smallest style home in Old Town
Key West are "Shotgun" houses. They sit on raised foundations and have
one long hall that runs from the front door to the back door. "Queen Anne" is
similar to Victorian and was very popular in Key West in the 1880's. The
most distinguishing detail about this style is the pointed small tower on one
side of the house.
