Imagine starting each day with a cup of coffee on your deck, watching the sunrise paint the sky over the bay. Spend your afternoons kayaking on calm waters, fishing, or exploring the island's natural beauty on one of the many bike trails, or simply watching the dolphins from your front deck at the sunset capitol of Alabama. This isn't just a house; it's a lifestyle. This is island living at its finest. 200 yards from the city boat launch, short bike or walk to shopping and dining. Possibly the best location on Dauphin Island. Open concept kitchen, stainless appliances, metal roof, 2 boat sheds, fish cleaning station.
