Roof replacement project in Shipyard is scheduled to start on March 28, 2025, and is expected to take approximately 8-9 months to complete. While work is ongoing, residents and guests may remain in their units, as all units will remain accessible. However, please be aware that there will be noise and construction activity during work hours. The work is done in sections so not all properties will be affected at the same time. Please contact AvantStay for more information regarding the approximate schedule for your unit.
*Please Note: This home is available for 7+ night stays only. Starting January 1, 2026, it will be available for 28+ day stays only.*
You are instantly soothed walking through the door of the Lavender Jungle, located in the Truman Annex, one of Key West's most attractive, quiet, and convenient neighborhoods. You’ll quickly see why its moniker fits when you notice the purplish-pink walls and African art that adorn the living space in this delightful 2-bedroom, 1-bath first-floor condo in the Shipyard section of the community.
For those who don't want to climb stairs, this first-floor property is perfect!
The master bedroom with a queen bed and guest bedroom with two twins sit on either side of the full bathroom. There is a well-equipped, recently renovated kitchen for preparing meals when you want to (but remember there are amazing restaurants to sample within easy reach). A large brick patio is ready for your quiet nights relaxing at home or when you want to fire up the grill.
Truman Annex is a lushly landscaped gated community within the historic district of Old Town Key West. And the best part? Anything you want to do is within a couple of blocks – see the daily sunset celebration at Mallory Square; walk a couple of blocks to the infamous Duval Street with shops, galleries, and restaurants galore; and mere steps away to Fort Zachary Taylor State Park with one of the nicest beaches on our island and a perfect spot to view the sunset!
Key West is the place to visit the lively nightlife and relax in the historic charm, flamboyance, and conch-style architecture that early Bahamian settlers made famous. It embodies a clash of the past and the present, and every building (including this rental) in Key West reflects this eclectic ambiance!
