Why I Love 1019 Snapper Lane in Key Largo

Every once in a while, I come across a home that I can’t stop thinking about—and 1019 Snapper Lane is one of those homes. From the moment I saw it on the MLS, I knew this place was something special. It checks so many boxes for anyone looking to enjoy life in the Florida Keys, whether you’re planning to live here full-time or just want a relaxing island getaway.

Let me tell you why I love it—and why I think you will, too.

A Great Spot in the Upper Keys

Location is everything, and this home is in an awesome neighborhood tucked between Key Largo and Tavernier. That means you’re close to everything—shops, restaurants, schools, parks, and the water—without being in the thick of it. It’s the best of both worlds. US-1 is just around the corner, giving you quick access to wherever you need to go.

The Home Itself? Beautiful.

This is a well-built 3-bedroom, 3-bath stilt home, and everything is all on one level. That’s not always easy to find in the Keys. Inside, you’ll find beautiful tile flooring throughout, and the whole space feels open, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen is a standout with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and custom cabinets—plus some really nice decorator blinds and shades that give the home a polished feel.

One of my favorite features? The wraparound balcony. It’s ceramic-tiled and has stairs for easy access, making it perfect for catching the breeze or relaxing with a good book. There’s also a screened-in front porch that feels like your own little hideaway.

Thoughtfully Designed Bedrooms

The primary suite is so inviting. It has French doors that open to a private balcony overlooking lush tropical landscaping—a perfect retreat at the end of the day. One of the guest bedrooms even has its own en suite bath, which is great if you have friends or family visiting.

Built to Last

This home was built with durability in mind: poured concrete foundation, concrete beams and columns, CBS construction, and all impact-rated windows and doors. It’s solid, safe, and ready for island living.

Outdoor Perks

You’ll love the tropical backyard oasis. Whether you’re entertaining or just relaxing under the palms, it’s a beautiful space. Downstairs, there’s also a large area for storage and even a workshop if you’re handy or just need a place to keep your gear.

Love the water? You’re in luck—there’s a small vessel launch just a street away, perfect for paddleboarding or kayaking. And for larger boats, Mike Forester Memorial Park is nearby with easy bayside access.

Everything You Need, Close By

One of the things I love about this area is how convenient everything is. You’re close to gyms, the biking and walking trail, restaurants, and grocery stores. Just five miles down the road, you’ll find Key Largo Park, with pickleball courts, tennis, basketball, baseball fields, and even the Jacobs Aquatic Center. There’s something for everyone.

And here’s a bonus: the current flood insurance is just $592/year—and it’s assumable. That’s a major win for buyers in the Keys.

Final Thoughts

If you’re looking for a move-in ready home that’s stylish, solid, and in a great location, 1019 Snapper Lane deserves a serious look. I truly love everything about it—and I’d be happy to show it to you.
