About This Property

GREAT NEW PRICE! This gorgeous home on 10.7 waterfront acres has been fully remodeled by the current owner with new flooring, new paint, and touches of custom wallpaper throughout. The kitchen boasts a Viking double oven and stove with pot-filler, stainless-steel sink, enormous kitchen island, and cabinet and shelf space aplenty. A breakfast nook with tall, clear windows lets you look out onto the side yard where orange, satsuma, and lemon trees grow in abundance. In the master suite, the bedroom features a private fireplace, attached master sitting room, two spacious closets, and a direct connection to the laundry and mud rooms. The master bath sports double vanities, plus a custom waterfall shower with bench seating and tons of natural sunlight.

Upstairs, next to two more bedrooms, a bathroom, and expansive attic space, a gigantic media room overlooks the backyard. The home's sturdy metal roof secures everything.

Outside, the backyard runs on forever, into quiet woods leading to the Little Tchefuncte River. Savor the morning sunlight in the panoramic screened-in cabana accessible by elevated boardwalk, or host Saints-watching parties there aided by the cabana's power, water, and sound systems. Enjoy more nature-watching from the huge wraparound screened-in back porch, or chat with guests on the broad covered front porch.

The detached garage offers plenty of worktable and shelving space, plus three overhead doors, including drive-through access and mounted extensions cords and compressed air.

Other features include a whole-house generator to get you through any storm, a SimpliSafe alarm system, two Nest cameras, and a water softener.

The manager has listed the unit size as 4177 square feet.
