It is adjacent to a second kitchen which leads out to the covered and screened porch. The guest house is located over the spacious 2-car garage. A small, electrically heated pool surrounded by vegetation, completes the relaxed tropical feeling. The excellent walkability factor and its bohemian atmosphere reminds one of Key West. The Laurel Park neighborhood is an excellent alternative to high-rise downtown condo living. Quiet, peaceful urban living, only moments away from shopping, dining, farmer's market, cultural attractions and Bay Front.
