About This Home

Discover this immaculate 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence, perfectly situated on the Aloe bay side of Dauphin Island. The home features breathtaking, unobstructed water views. Inside, you'll find a spacious and inviting layout designed for both relaxation and entertaining. Escape to your private slice of coastal heaven. 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. And, the big bonus is the over 1,000 square feet of "fun down under". Under the house can be parking, watching the game, lounging, hot shower after beach visits or after swimming in your private pool. For investors, this could also be a great income producer sleeping 12-14 if bunk beds were utilized.
