Before construction the land had extensive improvements, such as, elevating the grounds, putting in extensive drains and swells.

The construction of major buildings was completed in 2002 but improvements continued until 2004. The main home is CBS construction with Hardy plank over the CBS. All trim is Cypress. The home is on a stem wall foundation and  designed to look as if it had been on the property for many years. The main home was designed from historical homes in Key West, yet, it has all modern upscale amenities.
