About This Home

As of September 2020

Tucked away on Dowitcher Trail is this lovely maritime forest cottage. Adorned in natural cedar shake siding and complimented on the front and back by two large covered porches (one screened) this home is sure to charm. Upon entering the home from the ''rocking chair'' front porch you'll find all your living areas: a half bath, laundry, kitchen, dining, and a great room with vaulted ceilings. A warming fireplace with antique hearth add to the character of this room. A large master suite with en-suite bath and a spacious screened porch (with views of live oaks and soaring pines) round out the living space on the first floor. Upstairs you'll find two more bedrooms, each with en-suite baths along with a bunk room attached to one of the bedrooms. There is a detached two cart garage and the two golf carts in the garage convey! The home comes fully furnished and there is a Lifestyle Membership to the BHI Club available for separate purchase. In the summer, the home is a great vacation rental property where turnover is Friday, so plan to see it on Fridays between 11am - 4pm.
