As you enter the fully fenced property through an electric gate the house is not yet visible, The driveway winds 170 yds through a beautiful oak alley with Spanish moss. As you approach the 2-story stucco villa you are greeted by a gorgeous fountain with a bronze Marlin statue. Enter the front door surrounded by hand carved teak wood trim to this one-of-a-kind property. Travertine floors throughout the entire interior and exterior (upper porch and balconies). The open living/kitchen area features 16 ft ceilings and an oversized wood burning fireplace. The cabinetry of the kitchen is unique… each cupboard is an individual antique piece of furniture.The down stairs could easily be converted into a mother-in-law suite. The interior doors throughout the upper floor are from a 19th century Alabama courthouse. Most rooms on the main floor have access to the 15ft x 60ft covered deck and stunning views to the ICW, the private sandy beach, and the amazing boat dock. From the dock Gulf waters are accessible within 15 minutes (Perdido Pass or Pensacola Pass) or just fish right off the dock. The pier is built with reinforced pilings and flow-through grates to withstand tides and storms. Having a 15K lb. boat lift and deep-water access makes this home a boater’s paradise, perfectly suited for the waterfront living at its finest.
