Located in the heart of Key West, 1712 Laird Street offers a rare blend of central convenience and residential tranquility. Positioned within a short stroll of Smathers Beach, Higgs Beach Park, the Key West Nature Preserve, White Street Pier, and the island's beloved Garden Club and dog park, this home places the best of the island lifestyle quite literally at your doorstep. Duval Street and the Old Town Historic District lie just 1.5 miles away, while Mallory Square and the waterfront—famed for their sunsets, dining, and culture—are approximately 2 miles from the property, allowing effortless access without sacrificing peace and privacy . Designed by an architect with a discerning eye for light and space, the residence showcases a modern open-concept floor plan enhanced by expansive glass elements that invite the outdoors in. Cathedral ceilings soaring from 12 to 15 feet throughout every room create a sense of volume and airiness seldom found in Key West homes, delivering a bright, refined interior that feels both contemporary and timeless . Set on a 5,000-square-foot parcel, the grounds are thoughtfully landscaped with low-maintenance native flora, including seven mature palm trees, a striking gumbo limbo, and established orchids. The result is a private tropical sanctuary—lush, authentic, and effortlessly elegant—perfectly suited for island living without pretense . Large back yard offers plenty of space to add a pool!
