About This Home

As of December 2021

Welcome home to this fantastic waterfront property located on the serene canal of Lake Earl in the heart of Fort Walton Beach. Enjoy the Florida lifestyle with easy access to Choctawhatchee Bay, Crab Island and the Gulf of Mexico from your backyard with 42' of waterfront. The dock is perfect for launching your stand-up paddle board, kayak or docking your boat. The brackish water attracts a variety of fish and is the perfect place to observe birds and other wildlife. Entertain friends on the large back deck, which overlooks the water and beautifully maintained yard with mature landscaping--a great place to relax and enjoy your quiet oasis. Three bedrooms and two baths, large living room with vaulted ceilings & two sliders to the back deck. New roof Oct 2021! OPEN HOUSE Sat 11am - 3pm Enjoy daytime views of the water from your living room and relax by the fireplace in the evening. The kitchen is open to the dining room with an additional room on the waterside--which is currently utilized as an office. The home already has gas heat which means adding a gas stove to the kitchen, converting the fireplace, or changing to a tankless gas water heater would be feasible upgrades for the buyer. This well maintained home has a lot to offer. Transferrable termite protection in place; updated sinks and faucets in the kitchen and bathrooms; new toilet in main bath; hurricane shutters; double gate access to the backyard/water access. Lawn pump/sprinkler system was replaced last year, is in good working order and conveys "as-is". Located in Fort Walton Beach across the street from Ferry Park--with tennis courts, playground, disc golf course, and walking trail. Convenient to schools, shopping, military bases, and about 2 miles from the white sandy beaches of Okaloosa Island. Affordable waterfront living with an excellent location--Don't miss out on this one! Call today!
