THE LOCATION Ted’s Place – the spectacular former estate of Ted Williams is superbly situated at Mile Marker 82 in the heart of fabulous Islamorada – the Village of Islands, the Sportfishing Capital of the World and recently described by the Miami Herald as ‘the Cool Key’. Its central location on Upper Matecumbe Key means easy access to the best that Islamorada has to offer. A short stroll to the end of the street takes you to the Islamorada Fishing Club or the Lorelei Restaurant and Cabana Bar – popular hangouts for locals and visitors alike. Explore further afield and you will find many of the area’s top-rated marina’s, restaurants, craft breweries, tiki bars, art galleries and boutiques. Set well away from the busy Overseas Highway, this gated estate fronts directly on to glorious Florida Bay for breathtaking sunsets and panoramic views of shimmering, teal waters, mangrove islands and the turquoise horizon. Islamorada is uniquely positioned at the confluence of the Atlantic, the Gulf of Mexico and the Everglades National Park. For fishing friends and families this is a seriously fishy venue. The world record producing bonefish flats of Shell Key are seconds away from the dock, a few minutes further takes one to the tarpon hotspots of Florida Bay or the Oceanside flats. The fertile fishing grounds of the Gulfstream are easily accessed via nearby Whale Harbor Channel. Opportunities for lobstering, snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding and nature watching abound right outside your door. When Baseball legend Ted Williams moved to the Keys in the fifties, he had the pick of the best waterfront locations to call home. He chose here. After spending a week treading in his footsteps, you will understand why. THE ESTATE Spanning 1.5 acres and accessed via an electric gate on quiet Madeira Road, Ted’s Place is truly a tropical paradise. A long, winding driveway leads you through expansive, mature gardens populated with hundreds of native trees, shrubs and flowering plants, all designed to attract an abundance of butterflies and birdlife. Towering, swaying palms surround the main home, rambling Bourgainvillea provide vibrant splashes of color and comical curly-tailed lizards stand sentry on the stone garden walls. Accessing the bayside of the estate you are immediately struck by the infinity-edged swimming pool and spa and an assortment of patio’s, decks, outdoor dining areas and a bar area - all laid out to maximize the spectacular open water views. A small mangrove island protects the sea wall and dockage creating a shallow lagoon that shields boats from excessive wind and waves. It’s also an ideal place to kayak and paddle board on windy days. Most days an Osprey perches on the largest palm, surveying the lagoon for its preferred prey of Mullet. Schools of large Snapper and Parrotfish hang out in the shade of the floating dock and families of Manatee’s visit on a frequent basis. If you are lucky you may witness dolphins playing beyond the island in the deeper waters of the Bay. If you are not transfixed by the natural beauty of it all, there are many further outdoor features to occupy your time – a small gym located in the garden room, a pool table, darts board and ring toss in the bar area, shuffleboard on the porch, ping pong in the entryway, corn hole in the yard and a fire pit for toasting marshmallows on cooler winter evenings. If you are tired of the Ted’s Place you are tired of life. Kick back, relax and enjoy this serene oasis. THE HISTORIC HOME Ted Williams was the quintessential all-American hero. His achievements as a baseball hitter for the Boston Red Sox remain unsurpassed to this day. In between setting all time batting records he served his country with distinction as a fearless fighter pilot during World War II. Upon his retirement from baseball he headed south to Islamorada where he quickly distinguished himself as one of the best fisherman the Keys had ever seen. The media attention Williams brought with him truly put Islamorada on the map as one of the leading sportfishing destinations in the world. Ted Williams evidently loved the Keys and its people. The fact that he lived in this house for forty years makes Ted’s Place one of the most historically significant homes in the Upper Keys. Today, the original concrete shell of Williams house still forms the superstructure. But beyond that, subsequent owners have upgraded the interior and exterior to create 5,400 sq/ft of living space (3,600 sq/ft interior and 1800 sq/ft of porches, balconies and terraces) laid out and equipped for contemporary lifestyles, but careful to preserve the Old Florida charm. The ground floor of the home offers an open plan living design and features a well equipped kitchen by the modern masters, Bulthaup and a dining area furnished in the minimalist mid-century modern style with superb views towards the water. Large sliding glass doors bring the outdoors in to the living areas and provide plenty of natural light. One en-suite bedroom makes up the ground floor. Upstairs, there are a further four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The master suite is as large as some condominiums in the Keys and opens on to a large balcony overlooking Florida Bay. All bathrooms are equipped with the best power showers and porcelain from Hans Grohe and Duravit. Large Smart TV’s are situated in the living room and master bedroom and Wi-fi is available throughout the home. Please note the 5th bedroom has two twin beds - the other 4 bedrooms have King beds.. The owner of this home is an avid saltwater fly fisherman and this is reflected in the fine artwork by notable marine artists such as Al Barnes, Tim Borski, Jorge Martinez and Roge Fowler that adorns many wall spaces. To stay at Ted’s Place is to immerse oneself in the natural beauty of the Florida Keys whilst still enjoying the creature comforts one would expect from modern living. You may find you never want or need to leave the Estate except perhaps by boat – any of the many great fishing guides in the area will be happy to pick you up by skiff or bay boat right at the dock. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Heated pool - Hot tub - Massage - Outdoor pool - Private pool - Sauna ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Chef service - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 4 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Printer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property - Note from host: Ashtrays provided on porch and balconies ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Meal delivery service - Phone ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Billiards/pool table - Gym - Heated pool - Kayak - Table tennis - Water sports equipment - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Parasailing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 5,000 square feet ## Similar properties ![Outdoor pool, a heated pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/30000000/29960000/29956500/29956429/c7e07388.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 5 bedroom - Deep Dockage & Heated Pool in Islamorada.

Mark and Theresa were very welcoming and attentive to us before and during our stay, consistently communicating with us about our needs, all of which they were happy to accommodate. The property is beautiful and within the best location of Islamorada, in our opinion. This historical home and the history within it has so much character, and the views of the sunset are unbeaten. Our family enjoyed the games, paddle boards, and kayaks throughout the trip. Thanks again to Mark and Theresa for making it a trip we will always treasure. ##### Annmarie M.

The views to the water from the house are fantastic, as is the well-planned pool and deck area where we spent much of our time. Had much fun kayaking with the kayaks provided, as well as fishing. Hats off to Mark and Theresa who have managed to preserve the charm of the original home, while making tasteful improvements both inside and out! ##### William D.

Owners Mark and Theresa are great people. Among our many trips to rental properties in Islamorada, they are the first and only owners to actually meet with us on their property when we arrived to show us their home and answer any questions. Also, Theresa made herself available during our entire stay in the event that we had any issues or questions. Beautiful place! The sunset view is beautiful and we all enjoyed Ted's Place so much that we hated to leave. Thanks again to Mark and Theresa. Many thanks for our wonderful memories! The Skinners ##### Randy S.

Accommodations were first class. Loved having four bedrooms with adjoining bathrooms. Kitchen was well equipped to facilitate cooking for eight. View over the bay was exquisite and the pol area was spacious. Paddle boards, kayaks, floats and toys made for lots of fun. Back Country charter picked us up our dock and off shore charter was only a mile away. Chief Michael’s had superb seafood and Robbie’s had great breakfasts. Looking forward to a return trip! ##### Dennis E.
