Description
Photo Illustration - Ernest Hemingway's home from 1931 to 1939. He retained title to the home until he died. It is a landmark and tourist attraction now populated by six and seven-toed cats that are descendants of Hemingway's cats. It was in this house that he did some of his best work, including the short story classics "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" and "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber," plus his novel To Have And Have Not, and the non-fiction work, Green Hills of Africa. The house was one of the first on the island to be fitted with indoor plumbing, and the first on the island to have an upstairs bathroom with running water, fed from a roof rain cistern. Also notable are a built-in fireplace, and the first swimming pool in Key West, and the only pool within 100 miles in the late 30's. The grounds of the house are maintained as a garden, with many tropical plants installed after Hemingway moved to Cuba.
