​THE ISLAND
YOU NEVER HAVE TO
LEAVE THE COUNTRY FOR

​​​

Surrounded by the clear waters of the Lower Florida Keys, Howell Key encompasses 9.69 private acres with a resort-style pool, sandy beach, off-grid systems, and two building rights, presenting a rare opportunity to own an island that is both private and fully functional.

The appeal of Howell Key begins with its sense of separation. Reached by water, the island feels removed from the mainland without being impractical. A private mainland lot, barge, golf cart, tractor, and dock make travel and day-to-day management more convenient, while the setting provides a degree of privacy rarely found at this scale.

At the center of the island, the 3,352-square-foot residence offers five bedrooms and four bathrooms, with a layout designed for extended stays, family gatherings, and easy indoor-outdoor living. Cathedral ceilings give the interiors an open, airy quality, while broad expanses of impact-rated glass bring in natural light and keep the surrounding water visible throughout the day. The house feels relaxed but polished, with room to host comfortably without losing the intimacy that makes island living so appealing.

The primary suite is attached to the main residence and includes a generous walk-in closet. Across a breezeway, a separate guest wing contains its own living room, breakfast bar, and two private bedrooms, allowing family and guests to settle in while maintaining a sense of independence.

The island itself is what makes the property especially compelling. Groomed trails wind through the tropical landscape, while a sandy beach provides direct access for kayaks and paddleboards. The saltwater pool, pickleball court, barn, pasture, and chicken coop support days that can be as active or unstructured as the owner chooses.
