About This Home

As of April 2025

Step back to simpler times in this quaint, updated Bear Point gem overflowing with charm and natural sunlight. This updated home features beautiful “Lifeproof” waterproof laminate wood floors, granite countertops, and stainless appliances, offering both comfort and style. Relax on the front or back porch and enjoy peaceful glimpses of Arnica Bay, while one of the bedrooms also provides indirect bay views. Both the home and the 720-square-foot detached workshop with carport, feature durable metal roofs. The outbuilding (added in 2005) adds valuable storage or workspace, while the property also includes a well and sprinkler system (condition unknown). Both the home and the outbuilding sit on an oversized 50x180 lot — nearly double the size of most Bear Point properties, offering ample space for expansion, a pool, or even building up for better water views. You'll feel the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience, with everything you need just a short distance away but tucked away from the hustle and bustle. Just a short walk to Bear Point Harbor, a full-service marina with restaurant and live music at the tiki bar. Hop in your golf cart and join the Bear Point social scene! Explore the area or meet up at the community waterfront park for some of the most beautiful sunsets on the island. Optional membership in Bear Point Civic Association provides access to neighborhood boat launch and waterfront park with sandy beach and pier (Optional - $300/yr). Conveying As Is, this home offers endless possibilities in one of Bear Point’s most desirable locations. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.
