0 Melody, Summerland Key, FL 33042 - Monroe County

An unparalleled opportunity to own your own private island in the Florida Keys. Melody Key is a true rarity--an off-grid sanctuary offering complete privacy, turquoise waters in every direction, and now a brand-new boat dock and observation deck that set the stage for its next chapter. The property is currently undergoing a full renovation with permits and detailed architectural drawings already in place, giving the next owner a priceless advantage: step in at the perfect moment to bypass years of costly planning, engineering, and permitting delays. The most complex and time-consuming site-work has already been completed. With the structure, dockage, and infrastructure well underway, you can now take the reins of a project designed to become one of the most iconic private estates in the Florida Keys. Spanning over 5 acres, this private island offers a main residence with soaring wood-beamed ceilings, panoramic water views, and open-air living powered entirely by solar. From sunrise over the Atlantic to sunsets over the Gulf, the views are endless and unforgettable. The elevated observation deck delivers dramatic 360-degree vistas, perfect for entertaining, stargazing, or simply enjoying total seclusion. The seller has already invested heavily to bring the island to this stage and the estimate is $1.8M anticipated to complete renovations. For a discerning buyer, this creates a rare chance to secure Melody Key at precisely the right moment--capturing significant upside and finishing the project exactly to your vision. There is a private airport in the neighborhood for those with private planes. The property comes with a full residential lot on a canal for boat launches with a seawall located at 1439 Hudgings Dr. Opportunities of this exclusivity simply do not exist elsewhere in the Keys. Melody Key is not just a property--it is a legacy waiting to be completed.
