About This Home

As of April 2019

Seagrass Cottage is just a little piece of heaven. Sitting high (and very dry) up on the dunes, you have great views from the main floor wrap around deck and even more from the second floor deck. The main floor features a living room, dining room, kitchen, a master and guest room and a bath. Upstairs is a large loft like bedroom and bath. Vaulted ceilings add a great sense of space throughout and lots of windows add light, especially with the sunny southern exposure. Lots of upgrades and improvements made in the past few years. The home wrapped in Hardy Plank, new roof, new a/c, new decking, granite counters, new doors, some new windows....an almost total face lift plus some mechanics. Don't let the square footage deter or fool you, Seagrass feels and lives much larger. And don't forget, Cabana Beach owners have deeded beach access and permitted beach parking as well as deeded Mobile bay access and a pier. Just a little piece of heaven.
