About This Home

As of July 2021

Rare opportunity to own an exceptional home directly on the north shore of Cotton Bayou in Orange Beach. Deep water. Perfect for the large boat owner! This marvelous waterfront home is located on a large lot in a well sought-after area. A property of this nature is usually generational, located next to one of the best walking trails on the coast. Easy access to local shops and restaurants or hop on a boat to the Orange Beach Pass for some of the best deep-sea fishing in the Country. Perfect destination for entertainment, exploration and relaxation. The home consists of four bedrooms with ensuite baths along with a half bath. The two largest bedrooms have their own private study and office overlooking the Cotton Bayou. The other two bedrooms have stunning waterfront views with their own private balconies as well. A little history- This beloved property has been owned by the same family for 60 years! The original 1940’s cottage was replaced with new construction completed in 2013, where owners repurposed the wood from the original property in the new build’s accent features throughout the home. The new construction quality is superb, featuring an oversized elevator and a hip metal roof to Silver Fortification. Local zoning may allow for construction of a second home on the property. While walking through the home there is an inviting wooden cathedral ceiling, beautiful authentic wood floors, and bright large windows with custom blinds giving this home a warm beachside cabin feel. Triple French doors open from the kitchen and the great room to a large screened-in porch and outdoor deck overlooking the panoramic waterfront. The property holds an exceptionally large amount of covered outdoor decking on multiple levels. The outdoor amenities include a bathroom, private shower, and kitchen area, making a whole day of exploring the outdoors and watersports an easy venture with family and friends! Sit back and enjoy a one-of-a-kind Cotton Bayou Sunset. APPOINTMENT ONLY.
