About This Home
As of August 2025Welcome to The Galley, a hidden gem nestled directly on the Bon Secour River where peace and natural beauty abound. This rare waterfront cottage is the most private residence in the entire complex, uniquely surrounded by water on three sides and offering serene river views from nearly every room. Watch pelicans glide by, turtles sunbathe, and dolphins swim past your doorstep. Relax on the carport with the outdoor tv and seating and there is even an enclosed shower and bathroom for convenience. Whether you’re relaxing on the screened porch or launching your kayak for a scenic paddle, every moment here connects you to nature. This charming cottage features a 6,000 lb boat lift and a newer seawall installed in 2022, along with a brand-new HVAC system added in 2023 for your comfort and peace of mind. Inside, the home has been lovingly maintained and not rented, but similar units in the complex bring in approximately $25k to $34k annually in short-term rental income. The Galley community offers a tranquil lifestyle with direct river access, a sparkling community pool, and even an on-site restaurant, perfect for grabbing a drink or dinner just steps from your door. Located just 45 minutes by boat to the Gulf, the scenic journey winds through some of the most breathtaking natural landscapes Alabama has to offer. Whether you're looking for a private retreat or an investment opportunity, this riverfront cottage offers a truly special place to call home. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.
