Property Information

Completely hidden from the street, this recently redecorated garden flat provides you with two private entrances off the large gated garden. A private sitting area with oversized sun umbrella outside your front door beckons you to sit in the freshness of the garden and watch for the butterflies.

This garden was originally created in the 1930's by a woman with vision named Ms. Molly Parker. She planted this private garden as a retreat to relax, romance, recreate, and rejuvenate by reconnecting with nature. The homes on the property were built to celebrate the gardens. Today the tranquility of this native garden helps to wash away the demands and stresses of life. When you are ready for the beach you are just a short stroll away from white sands, turquoise waters, and historic piers. It is an easy walk to the grocery store, Cuban coffee, French and Cuban fare, and local art galleries.

When researching the origin of this garden, we were thrilled to find a 1939 Key West Citizen Newspaper reported written about Ms Parker and her garden. It stated then what we still enjoy today "...visitors find what imaginations have pictured...lavish growth of tropical vegetation, fragrant flowers, slender stemmed palms cutting the skyline, velvety butterflies idling in the sunshine. (The Key West Citizen, Dec. 27, 1939).
