Duck Key's Plantation Island
Duck Key, Fl. 33050

The owner, Gerald Ward, is a master carpenter and a pilot. Wood is his passion. He believes since wood is a natural product, it makes people more comfortable and secure in their surroundings.

We have finished this remodel of this luxury Florida Keys home and below is a list of what we accomplished.

  1. Installed an interior elevator, making this Florida Keys home for sale handicap accessible.
  2. Installed solid wood hickory cabinets (all plywood construction instead of medium-density fiberboard which contains formaldehyde).
  3. Our counter top is 2" thick laminated character cherry, sanded to 400 grit (feels like marble) then 3 coats of spar varnish to protect the wood from everyday scratches.
  4. We placed a free standing island in the middle of the kitchen with the 2" thick laminated character cherry counter top but oiled it, so it can be used as a butcher's block.
  5. Updated the electric in the kitchen.
  6. We have replaced all the kitchen appliances. See the specifications for the white oven, black stove top, white dishwasher, and white refrigerator.
  7. Mahogany paneled walls in the large living room and kitchen. Mahogany is a natural decay and insect resistant wood.
  8. Installed custom cedar paneling on all ceiling and in the hallway. Cedar is a natural decay and insect resistant wood.
  9. We replaced the old fans with these interesting fans. The Artemis™ Mahogany with Mahogany Vanes are in the living room and kitchen. The Artemis™Maple with Maple Vanes are in the two bedrooms.
  10. The living room and kitchen overhead lighting can be pulled up or down.
  11. We built an entertainment center with bookshelves and room for a 52" television which can bolted to the articulating arm bracket-wall mount, already installed. You'll be able to rotate the television 75 degrees.
  12. We created a 3 piece custom douglas fir crown-molding for a beautiful transition from all the walls to the cedar ceilings. We also finished it with 3 coats of spar varnish.
  13. We painted the exterior a pretty tropical turquoise - like our beautiful Florida Keys waters.
  14. We planted 39 drought resistant Florida Keys plants. See the landscaping page on this website for more details.

We loved the floor plan of this Florida Keys home on the great island of Duck Key, the friendly neighbors, and all of what the Florida Keys has to offer as far as fun things to do. AND, Gerald had great design plans for this Duck Key House! This Florida Keys home for sale is very unique because of the wood interior, the elevator making this Duck Key luxury home for sale handicap accessible.
