Enjoy waterfront summer breezes from your primary balcony with spectacular views from all living areas. The beautifully landscaped backyard with basketball court, pool/spa, and fire pit leads down to your own private dock.

The home offers ample living space, with a large great room off the well-equipped kitchen, plus added living and playroom areas, along with ensuite bathrooms in every single bedroom. Brand new windows and doors have just been installed on the rear side of the home to further highlight the views from all angles. A one of a kind offering not often seen on Amelia Island.
