The Conchquistador Deal of the day 8.25.2011 - Phenominal Deal for Navigable Waterfront Home - Sold at $300,000!!
22928 Long Ben Lane, Cudjoe Key
Wow! It is amazing what you can get in The Keys these days, especially when you go the extra miles down to the Lower Keys. A Navigable, Waterfront Home for $300K!! Not a Short sale nor Foreclosure. I had recently shown this Home to an out of town, heck out of the Country really, Buyer and they really loved it, but loved something else just a little bit more. He was quite taken with the differences between the Keys areas as I showed he and his lovely wife properties from Cudjoe Key at Mile Marker 20 to Key Largo at Mile Marker 100.
I explained that there are really 4 sections to the Keys, each with their own unique character and personality. Keys West, The Lower Keys (Stock Island to Ohio Key just South of the 7-mile Bridge), The Middle Keys (Craig Key, Long Key, and The Islands of Marathon), and The Upper Keys (Key Largo and The Village of Islamorada). They were stricken by the quiet remoteness of The Lower Keys and how peacefull it was at this property, which turned out to be a steal!! It was the lowest priced home in all the Keys with a wide water view. And what a view it was, from the second level deck you were one home away from Cudjoe Bay. A Happy Buyer is going to enjoy this for sure!!
Open View to Cudjoe Bay |
List Price: $349,000 / Sold Price: $300,000

The Conchquistador Deal of the Day 8.16.2011 - Stunning Waterfront Home on Adam's Cut
446 Barracuda Blvd, Key Largo
When I'm on our boat, Conch-Keys-Tador, one of the things I love doing, is cruising through Adams Cut. Now, a good deal of people, in going thru the cut, think it a bit of drudgery, but I love it.
For those of you who do not know, Adam's cut is the man-made channel the cuts across Key Largo and provides quick passage from the Bayside at Blackwater sound to the Oceanside at Largo Sound. On either side of the half mile channel are beautiful homes.
Drop the boat down to idle/slow, kick back and enjoy the 7-10 minute passage. Crack a beer, listen to some tunes and enjoy the slower pace 'till you're ready to rev up again on the other side.
I have always enjoyed looking at the homes on either side of the Cut and waving hello to the owners.
Today's Deal is one of those very homes and was just sold by my friend, colleague, and broker of our firm, Joy Martin. A stunning home that sold for a very very nice price for the Buyers that was negotiated down 16% from and already aggressive List Price!

Cheeca Lodge Sells for $100M
Some of my Fondest Keys memories involve the iconic Cheeca Lodge in Islamorada. Having an office directly across the street has only helped to create even more great memories.
Established originally as a fishing camp, Cheeca has grove to become an internationally renowned luxury oasis. For many years it hosted former President George Bush (the first), numerous celebrities, countless weddings, and of course photo shoots highlighting it's stunning pier that stretched on forever.
The fire, that closed the resort for almost a year, a few years back took some wind out of the sails for a bit, but it has rallied back to true form!
Now, it is reported that the Cheeca has sold to a New York based company. Let's hope that they keep it as magical as it has been all of these years!!
Below is an article for Keysnews.com:
"Cheeca Lodge sells for $100M
BY ROBERT SILK Free Press Staff
rsilk@keysnews.com
rsilk@keysnews.com
Cheeca Lodge Spa, Islamorada's largest hotel, and among its most prestigious, was sold Monday for slightly more than $100 million, said the attorney who represented Wyoming-based seller Cheeca Holdings in the transaction.
The buyer, said Sunrise attorney Andrew Mann, is NWCL, which was formed in June by principals of New York-based Northwood Investors. Northwood also owns hotels, retail centers and other types of commercial properties in eight other cities around the United States as well as one in Europe, according to its website.
Cheeca Lodge, which markets the upscale yet relaxed attitude it likes to project as "Barefoot Elegance," is a pillar of the Islamorada tourist industry. It has hosted a range of dignitaries and celebrities, including former President George Herbert Walker Bush, NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Academy Award-winner Forest Whitaker.
Its 214 rooms accounted for approximately 30 percent of the $2.05 million in bed tax revenues brought in by the Islamorada district of the Monroe County Tourist Development Council last year, Director Harold Wheeler estimates.
A catastrophic fire gutted the lodge's main building on New Year's Eve 2009, closing it for nearly a year.
Wheeler praised the former owners for the job they did in refurbishing the 27-acre property, and said he hopes the purchase won't bring major changes.
"The management there has done a real good job of bringing it back, hopefully that will continue on," he said.
Gary Clermont, who runs the tennis program at the resort, said that at least as far is he is concerned, things are going forward in the same fashion as before the sale. It's business as usual," he said.

Don't Let Trailering Woes Ruin Your Day!! Great Company in The Keys to Add to Your Phonelist! Free Trailer Inspection.
Don't Let THIS Happen to You! |
Been There...Done that...in 100 degree heat and mosquitoes!!!
With over 120 mile of Florida Keys, trailering your boat is quite often a necessity as there are times when the Middle or Lower Keys are calling your name or vice versa and you've got to hook up and go. And NOTHING kills the day worse than trailer issues.
Now, I always insist that my friends and clients purchase a sea towing and trailer towing assistance package from West Marine serviced by Tow Boat US. The $160 or so yearly investment will pay for itself many many times over. Now that just covers a tow back to your home or port. Sometimes you need a quick FIX to get you back on the road.
That is where my new friends at AAA Trailer Repair come in very, very handy. Located at Mile marker 98 Bayside in Key Largo and offering 24 hour roadside trailer assistance in the Upper Keys, these guys are great and extremely reasonable in price. They also offer all types of trailer accessories and maintenance.
Do your self a HUGE favor and stop by and have they inspect your trailer to make sure all is good. You will thank yourself later, because the LAST thing you want is to be stuck on the 7-mile bridge with busted bearings or a busted axle!!!
Call Damian at 305-735-2121 or visit AAATrailerRepair.com for a free trailer inspection, and let him and his crew keep your trailer running smooth and safe.

What Does $1,700,000 get you in the Florida Keys?? Just Closed in Stillwright Point.
Stillwright Point (Originally Stellrecht Point) is a great community that rests on a natural peninsula positioned perfectly in Key Largo on picturesque Blackwater Sound. 45 minutes from Miami...But an entire World away. It is a premiere community made up of sumptuous waterfront estates with breathtaking open-water views.
Now, $1.7M is a lot of money for sure, but in perspective...this stellar estate with views, views, and more views, was originally listed for almost $3M and a few years ago was worth considerably more.
My point being, accessibility in the Market has touched all aspects of the Market.. from bungalows to estates such as these. Yes our economy is shaky, but smart people have been coming to the Keys and taking advantage of our price phase shift. The most interesting aspect? Many, of the are International Buyers.

Time to Decant Some Fun! It's the Key Largo Food & Wine Festival!
Napa...Sonoma...Bordeaux....these are probably the areas that you think of when you hear about wine tastings.
Now you need to add another region to the mix...Key Largo!!!
It's The Key Largo Food & Wine Festival.
Over a week of fun festivities that culminates in a Grand Tasting Saturday, August 6.
The Conchquistador is somewhat of a wine aficionado, so you can be sure that I will be sampling some of the great combinations of Keys fare with the juice of the Gods!!
Tonight for example, is a Night in Argentina, featuring Argentinean Beef and Seafood paired with great wines, at The Key Largo Conch House.
Calypso's, Jimmy Johnson's Big Chill, Senor Frijoles, Sundowners, Taster's Grill, The Key Largo Conch House, Snapper's, The Pilot House, Ballyhoo's, and coconut's are just some of the participating local restaurants. So is you mouth watering yet???
Looking for a great Keys retreat to house you and your wine collection??? Put the experience and expertise of The Conchquistador to work for you!
