820 50th Ct, Marathon, FL 33050

There's something special about this 1953 CBS stilt home—one of those places that immediately feels like the Florida Keys of years past. Elevated construction, uncommon for its time, sets the stage for breezy living just one home in from open water. Inside, sunlight fills the upstairs living and dining areas, where original tongue-and-groove wood ceilings and parquet floors lend warmth and timeless appeal. The bedroom is bright and airy, with abundant natural light and a large walk-in closet offering generous storage. A terrace off the main living area is the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the salt air breeze. Altogether, the main level features 795 sq. ft. of living space, while the finished lower level adds another 747 sq. ft. Once the original owner's architectural studio, it now provides flexible space for creative use, along with storage and laundry. Outdoor areas are equally inviting, with a spacious covered patio below and a backyard framed by mature tropical landscaping that feels like your own private oasis. Ample parking completes the picture of easy island living. With timeless character and room to make it your own, this property offers a chance to own a true piece of Old Florida—inviting, enduring, and full of possibility.
