About This Home

As of May 2025

This Wolter Group home was thoughtfully designed and built by the current owners. They have maintained the home with great care and detail so it remains in exceptional condition and is ready for a new owner to enjoy its serene setting, magnificent bird watching, and wonderful near- beach location. The lanai extends most of the width of the home and overlooks vegetation that regularly hosts an array of wildlife. The high ceilings of the living room, lined with french doors and large windows, create a bright, inviting space that also features custom cabinetry surrounding the fireplace. Tray ceilings with crown molding detail create drama and volume in the dining room and each of the bedrooms, while arched entries to the foyer and dining area define the living space with graceful separation. Both bathrooms have been updated and most appliances range from one to four years old. The metal roof was re-screwed in 2021 with new gutters added in 2023. A surge protector was added at the meter in 2022 and the house is wired to be powered by a generator. This peaceful property, surrounded by nature and close to the beaches, is in excellent condition and is ready to be your new island home.
