This well-crafted 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features a warm and inviting design with coffered ceilings in the living room, a gas fireplace, and an easy flow into the dining area and gourmet kitchen. The kitchen is a chef's dream, complete with a tile accent wall to the ceiling, a large center island, and abundant cabinetry.

Enjoy your morning coffee or evening wine on the screened porch overlooking the water and gardens. Don’t miss the fabulous outdoor shower, perfect for rinsing off after a day on the water. With easy-care, yet gorgeous landscaping, stunning waterfront views, and multiple options for future development or resale, this is a truly unique opportunity. (4-Bedroom Septic Permit for the additional lot.) Whether you're seeking privacy, a legacy property, or an investment with flexible use, this waterfront gem delivers.
