Little Torch Key Real Estate
The Torch Keys are located just west of Big
Pine Key and are comprised of three separate islands know as Big, Middle, and Little Torch Key. Little torch Key
is the primary residential area with the majority of development nestled into
the canal systems just south of the Overseas Highway on the ocean side. While
there is some residential development on both Middle and Big torch Keys, these
islands are largely protected by state and federal wetlands and hardwood hammocks.
Little Torch offers excelent boating access to both backcountry and offshore for both small and slightly larger boats. Some of the canals can be tricky to get out of, so it’s surprising to find that a number of residents here keep fairly large sailboats tucked behind their houses and in the wintertime the cool evening breezes and the sounds of the sailboat halyards lull nearby residents to sleep.
Despite its feel of an older neighborhood, with smaller canals, a little like some parts of Key Largo, Little Torch prices can be relatively higher, as they tend to reflect easy access to a deep water channel.
This is where you catch the 1920’s style deluxe motorboat to Little Palm Island to stay or for dinner. It’s also a good place to rent a boat for exploring on your own.
