Summerland Key
Google Map

Imagine flying your own plane to your island paradise home where you step onto your sports fisherman or cabin cruiser for a weekend of sun and fun. It's all possible here. Summerland is a Mecca for larger boat owners and private pilots. It’s one of the few places in the whole country where you can have it both ways.

The island boasts wide flow-through canals and a private air strip for local residents making it a perfect spot to park a Beechcraft and a 50+ foot boat. The majority of homes on Summerland are located on the Atlantic side of the Overseas Highway.

Although there is some price variation, homes here are generally more expensive. Those on what’s called “open water” are even more so, with a good number of multi-million dollar homes.

Summerland has a small downtown along US#1, with a good boutique grocery store, a couple of restaurants, real estate offices, a bank, some healthcare offices, an office building, a post office and some retail. You will also find some great fishing charter boats here.Summerland Key

Ramrod key

Ramrod Key

Google Map

Continuing further south on the island chain you come to Ramrod Key, named for a ship named Ramrod, which was wrecked on a reef south of there in the early nineteenth century. Ramrod is a very quiet and primarily residential island with pleasant neighborhood developments located mostly south of the highway (oceanside), but there are also homes on the north side. It is described by residents as being more "laid-back", friendlier and "keysey" than the islands found further down the chain. Ramrod is very familiar to the residents of the Lower Keys as it is home to a “resort” and Tiki Bar with a dive shop, accommodations, and a bar/restaurant. The famous Looe Key Reef is located not far offshore from Ramrod. You will also find an excellent animal hospital, and a popular local restaurant/bar with a miniature golf course.

Boating control depths are typically about 3 feet oceanside and 2 feet bayside with good access to both offshore and back country boating and fishing. Smaller boats, less than 30ft are typical here.

The Torch Keys

The Torch Keys
Google Map

The Torch Keys are located just west (south on the “highway”) of Big Pine Key and are comprised of three separate islands know as Big, Middle, and Little Torch Key. They are named for the torchwood tree. Little Torch Key is the primary residential area with the majority of development nestled into the canal systems just south and north of the Overseas Highway. While there is some residential development on both Middle and Big Torch Keys, these islands are largely protected by state and federal wetlands and hardwood hammocks.

Little Torch offers excellent boating access to both backcountry and offshore for both small and some larger boats. Some of the canals can be tricky to get out of, so it’s surprising to find that a number of residents here keep fairly large sailboats tucked behind their houses and in the wintertime the cool evening breezes and the sounds of the sailboat halyards lull nearby residents to sleep.

Despite its feel of an older neighborhood, a little like some parts of Key Largo, Little Torch prices can be relatively higher, as they tend to reflect easy access to a deep water channel. There is even a marina on the island to fuel your boat.

This is where you catch the motor launch to the famous Little Palm Island Resort to stay or to go for dinner. It’s also a good place to rent a boat for exploring on your own.

Big Pine Key information

2008-06-05T12:39:10Z

Big Pine Key

Big Pine Key is one of the largest and most interesting islands in the Keys. It is home to the Key Deer population. Precautions are taken to preserve as much Key Deer habitat as possible. Big Pine has a population just over 5000 and as April 2008, there were homes starting at about $250,000. (Mobile homes may be less) As you get closer to the water or buy a home on a canal, the prices rise accordingly. But there are quite a few different developments, mostly of single family houses, and some are pricier than others.

Water depth affects prices, and some areas have about 15 inches and some have 3-4 feet. Obviously this means you can have a certain kind of boat in some areas that won’t work in other areas. It depends what you’re looking for. There are even a few plugged canals, which means that there is no boating at all. Many of the shallower areas have more direct and private access to a lot of the wilder and more pristine parts of the island and adjacent backcountry. They may also (but not reliably) be less expensive.

Unlike the other more narrow keys between Miami and Big Pine, where the housing areas were arrayed on either side of the road, gulf/bayside or oceanside. Here it’s different. The 2-lane, 45 mph “Overseas Highway” (what a misnomer!) runs across the southern edge of Big Pine, through the restaurant and business area; most of the residential areas are situated several minutes drive to the north. To some buyers that slow drive (25-30 mph speed limits, for the deer) is a deterrent the farther north you go on the island; to others the isolation means extra value.

Connecting by bridge off of Big Pine’s eastern side is No Name Key, a small community of homes. There are no public utilities on No Name. Power comes from solar and generators. Water is collected in private cisterns.

Florida Keys getting Greener

2008-01-08T09:29:46Z

The FloridaKeys and Key West are aiming to get on the map as the city of SouthernmostSustainability.

Per JodySmith-Williams of Key West: Local communities across the country are enactingtheir own standards of energy efficiency, alternative fuel consumption andinvestment in clean energy sources. Key West already has an out-of-the-boxreputation so it's time Key West became a model city of sustainability.

At a recentconference, Rob Patten, representing Sarasota County Environmental Services,explained how Sarasota County became one of the most progressive areas inFlorida on energy and sustainability issues. Patten generously offered toreturn to Key West to go through this road map step by step with city or countydepartment managers.

Big Pine Key Florida August3rd, 2007 – Per Florida Keys REALTOR, Ruth Hemp: This is potentially great newsfor our present and future residents. Greening is currently on people’s mindsdue to rising sea levelsand continued dependence on non-renewable fossil fuels. So the timing here isgreat. Our residents and tourists alike will appreciate any changes we make tohelping the environment.

I know forexample that Florida Keys Electric Co-op in the Upper Keys (FKEC) recentlyconverted its vehicle fleet to biodiesel. It also now offers "netmetering," a program by which customers who generate their own power viarenewable sources, such as solar or wind, can sell back into the grid at thesame rate customers pay to buy power FKEC should be commended for taking thelead on this issue.

When asked if this could haveany effect on Keys Real Estate, Ruth also remarked: Well yes, this has to help.Especially since we are such a high visibility location. Anything we do in thisarea will resonate throughout Florida.
