The Secret Garden House
Closed by Teamkaufelt & Elizabeth Chamberlain (Elizabeth Chamberlain | 816 Johnson Lane, Key West
Sold for full ask with only 2 days on the market.
There’s a hidden garden in the middle of Old Town Key West… And in just two days, it found its next chapter.
TEAMKAUFELT brought this historic property to market with a carefully considered launch: distinctive visual storytelling, targeted exposure, and an opening-day open house that welcomed more than 100 people through the gates.
The response was immediate.
Multiple offers followed, and within two days we secured a full asking-price contract with no contingencies and a quick closing for our sellers.
That kind of result begins with understanding what makes a property truly special, then presenting it in a way that allows the market to feel it.
Rooted in Key West’s cigar cottage history and surrounded by a remarkable tropical garden, 816 Johnson Lane offered architectural integrity, privacy, and an authenticity that could not be replicated.
It is always a pleasure working alongside Elizabeth Chamberlain, whose professionalism and collaborative approach helped bring the right buyers to this very special property.
We would also like to thank closing agent Richard McChesney (thecoastalservice), whose experience and persistence helped navigate a unique title issue and bring the transaction to a successful close.
Congratulations to our sellers and to the new stewards of The Secret Garden House.
