This bright, private 2BR/2BA corner unit sits at the end of the west wing, with an extra window that fills the space with light and only one shared wall for real quiet. This unit comes with covered parking. The kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, and a full-size washer and dryer means laundry day never means leaving home. A covered parking space (#122) comes with the sale.

Las Salinas Condominiums is one of the best-kept communities in Key West, and it shows. The pool is sun-drenched and inviting, and the fitness center may be the best on the island, with private access to cardio and strength rooms that are always spotless and always stocked with quality equipment. Monthly fees of $535 cover building insurance, exterior maintenance, and full on-site management, so ownership here is refreshingly hands-off.

Step outside and you're close to a grocery store, a day spa, and a bus stop for easy island transportation. Just past the entrance, the two-mile Smathers Beach promenade is calling, whether that's a sunrise walk, a bike ride, or a spot to watch the sky change color every evening. Add in open-lot parking for a second vehicle, plus storage and bicycle rooms, and this is a home built for the way you actually want to live in Key West. Call today to schedule a private showing.
