Cockadoodle Cottage On Duval

Key West cottage architecture has been thoroughly time-tested in island life and culture in this somewhat infamous little wooden cigar maker’s cottage located on famous Duval Street, at the classier upper-end. Since its original construction in the early 1900’s this note-worthy Cockadoodle Cottage vacation rental has been recreated, redesigned, adapted and reformed.

Keeping with modern minimalist renovation design and decorum, that is set in the Havana Moon cottage, this Cockadoodle Cottage is also appointed with modern island furnishings and art work. The floorsare tiled throughout this cottage, using a soft earth-tone. High ceilings and recessed lighting give the rooms a more spacious feeling. Even though the interior is completely re-mastered to make two luxurious bedroom suites, a full kitchen, and master bath with Jacuzzi tub, the owner retained the original interior structure enough so that you can still enjoy the authentic flavor of the single “shot-gun” design.

Cottage Layout: We can begin our description of the Key WestCockadoodle Cottage at the front entrance which is set to the left of the front of the house. Upon entering the front door you step immediately into the common “hall room” that heads straight away to the back door. Off this main common room, on the left side of the house, a symmetrical row of interior rooms proceed from the front of the cottage to the back.

The first door on your left leads to the front bedroom and beautiful en-suite bathroom. The front bedroom is elegant and luxurious and provides a queen bed. Furnishings are tasteful and elegant.* (see notes)

The next room is a brand-new modern “U-shaped kitchen,” complete with top-of-the-line appliances and recessed lighting. The kitchen is open to the wide “sitting hall” which at this point becomes the interior gathering and common seating space for the cottage.

The last room down the hall at the back of the house is the spacious back bedroom and en-suite bathroom with Jacuzzi bath tub. The back bedroom suite offers a king size bed and is appointed with beautiful bedding and furnishings. At the end of the hall the back door opens to the small back porch.

Back outside and around to the front of the cottage, is the covered front sitting porch where you can catch a view of the ocean and a soft salt southern breeze. Pretty wicker furnishings have been placed for guests to sit and watch the world of Key West go by.
