For fans of the Netflix drama Bloodline, the Florida Keys have always held a certain mystique. Now, a piece of that on-screen world is up for grabs. The iconic Palm Lane house in Islamorada, which served as the home of Kevin and Belle Rayburn throughout the series' three-season run, has hit the market for $2.25 million.
Owners Matt and Debbie Pribyl, who have kept the property as a private retreat for two decades, decided it was time to pass the keys to a new steward. The listing, handled by Ernesto Portuando and a colleague at American Caribbean Real Estate, secured a 45-day pending purchase contract just days after the home was promoted online, according to Mansion Global.
A house with a Hollywood backstory
The cottage-style residence, with its whitewashed walls and wraparound porch, sits on two lots totaling half an acre at mile marker 87 on the bay side of the Overseas Highway. Inside, you'll find 2,796 square feet of living space, three bedrooms, three bathrooms, vaulted ceilings, and hand-carved walnut wood floors. The kitchen features matte granite countertops and a pantry, while the upper level includes a sitting room with a mini-fridge and breakfast bar—perfect for hosting guests.
But the real selling point is the home's cinematic pedigree. In 2014, the Pribyls were renovating the structure when a location scout stumbled upon it, drawn to its unfinished aesthetic. That raw look became the backdrop for the Rayburn family's unraveling, with stars like Sissy Spacek, Sam Shepard, Ben Mendelsohn, and Kyle Chandler bringing the story to life. The show premiered in 2015 and quickly became a cultural touchstone, putting the Upper Keys on the map for a new generation of travelers.
The production's impact on the local economy was significant. A report commissioned by the Monroe County Tourist Development Council found that the first season alone generated nearly $5.8 million in direct production spending and more than $65 million in tourism revenue, as fans flocked to see locations like The Moorings, Caribbean Club, and Anne's Beach. That kind of attention has made the Keys a sought-after destination for both filmmakers and homebuyers.
For the Pribyls, the decision to sell wasn't easy. They've spent two decades enjoying the privacy and seclusion that the dense tropical vegetation provides. But with the property now under contract, they're preparing for their next chapter. The sale is in escrow, a standard process that should close in the coming weeks.
The home's appeal goes beyond its square footage. It's a piece of streaming history, a tangible link to a show that captivated audiences worldwide. As one agent put it, the property's value is tied to its story—a story that continues to resonate with fans who visit the Keys to walk the same halls and stand in the same spots where their favorite characters once stood.
For those interested in owning a slice of that legacy, the opportunity is still available—though with a pending contract already in place, it may not last long.
