In 1999 the Golden Heron was awarded a Gold Star by the Old Island Restoration Foundation. It was one of only 5 homes selected on Key West, and over 1100 people toured the property. It was also selected as a showcase Key West home in the 2007 House and Garden Tour.

The brand new, in-ground pool and spa heats to 104 degrees and boasts a 14' wide waterfall with grotto. The lanai features beautiful Brazilian teak decking and the gourmet kitchen just renovated features subzero refrigerator, Wolf stove, Bosch dishwasher and Dacor microwave with Uba Tuba granite and solid cherry cabinetry.
