Waterfront living meets peace of mind in this rare solid block construction home featuring a brand new private dock, boat ramp, deep water access, and a solar system to be paid in full at closing. Offering the space, waterfront access, and major upgrades buyers expect from a coastal property, this move-in ready home delivers exceptional value without compromise.
Built to last and designed for true waterfront living, this property proved its durability as the only home on the street to withstand Hurricane Michael–even nearby million-dollar stilt homes just a few doors down required extensive repairs, while this home needed none.
Enjoy direct boating access from your brand new private dock and boat ramp, making fishing, boating, and sunset cruises part of everyday life.
The large lot provides plenty of room to spread out and includes two oversized powered storage sheds/workshops, ideal for hobbies, equipment, storage, or workspace.
Major improvements have already been completed, including new windows, HVAC system, driveway, and a solar system that will be paid off by seller at closing, allowing future owners to enjoy energy savings without assuming a solar loan. Connected to city water and sewer for added convenience.
A standout feature is the elevated concrete carport/breezeway that stays dry and doubles as a shaded outdoor living area, complete with double entry doors that create an open-air space perfect for relaxing and enjoying summer breezes.
This is a unique opportunity to own a well-built, upgraded waterfront property offering both functionality and lifestyle.
