About This Home

As of June 2023

Stunning waterfront property minutes away from restaurants and shopping. This home is located in town but tucked away on a private street, great for enjoying the water and wildlife but minutes from amenities. Built it in 2014 with luxury and comfort in mind, the home sits eight and a half feet above ground level, with outdoor living and storage below as a bonus. Entertaining is effortless, with rear water facing an upper-level porch with an outdoor fireplace, seating area, television, and place for your grill. The home offers a lift that opens in the hallway for ease of carrying groceries, etc. There is a deck/dock for boat parking or just getting some sun! The home has an attached cabana with a sleeping space, a living area, a kitchen, and a full bath. You will be impressed with the foundation of this home, which has 52 pilings extending 25 feet deep--no worries about strong winds. Wood floors are throughout, with a buffer zone entry to the primary bedroom for maximum privacy and an accompanying ensuite containing double vanities, a soaking tub, a walk-in shower, and a water closet. The amenities for this home are too many to mention, so ask for your showing today.
