Welcome to a hidden waterfront opportunity in the highly desirable Bermuda Shores community of Key Largo. Tucked beneath a canopy of lush tropical greenery, this property offers a peaceful, private setting that feels like your own escape in the Keys. A wooden pathway leads you through the mangroves to your dock, where calm waters and open skies set the tone for everyday living. Whether it’s morning coffee by the water or sunset boat rides, this is the lifestyle people come to Key Largo for. What truly sets this property apart is the ROGO EXEMPTION—already approved, allowing you to build immediately without the typical waiting period. Set on a rare double lot spanning over 18,000 square feet, the property offers exceptional flexibility and future potential. An existing home on site gives you the option to enjoy it now, generate rental income, or plan your custom waterfront retreat over time. With direct water access and dockage behind the property, this is an ideal setup for boating enthusiasts seeking easy access to open water. Located in a quiet residential neighborhood while still close to local restaurants, shops, and everyday conveniences, this property offers the perfect balance of privacy and accessibility. Owner financing available with negotiable terms. Opportunities like this—buildable waterfront, double lot, and ROGO approved—are becoming increasingly hard to find in the Florida Keys.
