About This Home

As of April 2024

One of a kind waterfront cottage hidden away on a large shaded lot. As you drive in through the private entrance, you feel the pressure of the day melting away. When the drive bends into a loop, it opens up to reveal a cute 1930's cottage (needs work) nestled among mature oaks. But revealed behind is a view to take your breath away. A lush new lawn with expansive views of Santa Rosa Sound, intercoastal islands, and SR Island, with the Gulf just on the other side - a boater's playground. The 2 year old dock is ready for your boat, watercraft, fishing rod or sunsets. Original cottage & guest house were connected / updated in 2001. With two living areas, this could be a cozy part-time retreat or comfortable full-time residence - ready for your vision for what it can be. Make it your own!
