This beautiful island home sits in a fabulous spot, with the sparkling Gulf of Mexico front and center! With lots of open floorplan area, and even more windows and sliding glass doors, your view from this home is simply magnificent! The elegant master suite shares the same Gulf-front vantage point, with its own double sliding glass doors leading to the water-front covered porch. Sip your coffee and watch soaring seabirds, jumping fish and the always-captivating play of the local bottlenose dolphins. Two more bedrooms and a full bath complete the upstairs. Downstairs, there's a sprawling four-bay under-house garage, with remote entry access, as well as a separate-entry one-bedroom apartment, with a second full laundry room (with its own washer and dryer units). SPECTACULAR EXTRA: The property includes a private beach across the street for lounging, sunbathing, building sand castles, or having a beach barbecue! Launch your kayak or canoe here, or apply to build a boat dock or sunning and fishing deck. Additionally, a brand new lift was installed to easily access the upstairs home--no lugging heavy grocery bags up the stairs again! Other recent improvements include full hurricane impact glass in all of the doors and windows, to protect in case of storms, and to lower insurance costs. The seller just lowered the list price by $100, 000--to $799, 000--to give an allowance for a new, upgraded kitchen. Grab this Gulf-front opportunity now--location, location, location!
