Steal: Renovated Waterfront Pool Home With Designer Appointments For $839.9K

For much less than our splurge, you could enjoy this Key Largo waterfront steal with sparkling pool and designer upgrades galore. In fact, it has been completely remodeled by an interior designer! Enjoy wood-look porcelain tiles, a crisp white kitchen with stainless appliances and granite counters, and ample decks and porches to soak up the views. We love the spiral staircase connecting the two-story, four-bedroom, three-full-bathroom home. A newly constructed dock with boat davits and a tiki hut at the water’s edge are among the highlights. Plus, there’s a fire pit and sandy area for sitting outside and unwinding with family and friends.
