Description

Welcome to refined waterfront living in Key Largo. Positioned on a generous, fully fenced parcel in the highly coveted Buccaneer Point community, this updated waterfront residence offers an exceptional blend of privacy, quality, and direct bay access. The property is set on a protected bayside basin with a private dock, providing immediate entry to both bay and ocean via Tavernier Creek or Adams Cut—ideal for serious boating, fishing, or watersport enthusiasts. The residence has been thoughtfully upgraded and maintained, featuring a durable metal roof, new porcelain wood tile flooring, Bahamian shutters, and sliding glass doors. The elevated main living area is accessed via a covered stairway and offers an open, light-filled floor plan with vaulted ceilings and updated finishes. Large glass doors open to a fully screened patio, extending the living space and offering panoramic views of the surrounding palms and water. The spacious primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a recently renovated en-suite bath with a jet tub and European-style shower. A secondary guest bath has also been updated with quality finishes. Wraparound upper-level decking enhances the home's indoor-outdoor flow and provides multiple vantage points to enjoy the tropical setting. Below, the ground level includes secure, legal storage space and covered parking with a rare 9-foot clearance, ideal for larger vehicles or trailered boats. The backyard is designed for waterfront enjoyment, with mature landscaping and ample room for outdoor living and entertaining. A true highlight of the property is the private pool area, offering a resort-style retreat just steps from the water. Whether used for relaxation or entertaining, the heated and chilled pool enhances the home's value and lifestyle appeal. Located approximately one hour from Miami, this turnkey residence offers an exceptional opportunity to own an upgraded waterfront pool home in one of the Upper Keys' most desirable neighborhoods.
