Property Description
~ A Bayfront Treasure Like No Other ~This ONE-OF-A-KIND Bay Cottage is the crown jewel of coastal living — set on a full acre of pristine privacy with views that will captivate you every single day. From the moment you turn onto the tree-lined drive, you'll feel transported to a hidden Fort Morgan retreat. Native camellias and fruit trees line your path, welcoming you home and whispering that you've arrived at a place where stress melts away and serenity takes over. Perched high on a beautifully landscaped lot that requires no flood insurance, this home combines rare peace of mind with timeless beauty and ease of care. Step inside, and the grand open cottage reveals the very best of Bay living. Soaring ceilings, an expansive layout, and custom details create a space designed for both comfort and luxury. The gourmet kitchen is anchored by glazed custom cabinetry, gleaming stainless appliances, and a stunning backsplash — all framed by an elegant entry display that sets the tone the moment you walk in. The open flow leads seamlessly into a full dining area and a sun-filled great room with a cozy corner fireplace, perfect for both everyday relaxation and memorable gatherings. At the back, a climate-controlled sunroom frames sweeping Bay views, while just beyond, an expansive deck invites you to dine under the stars, sip morning coffee at sunrise, or rock away your evenings as the sun melts into the water. The primary suite is its own retreat — with direct water views, a luxurious en-suite bath featuring a jetted tub, walk-in shower, built-in linen storage, and a spacious vanity. The convenience of a full sized washer and dryer tucked within the suite makes life here as easy as it is beautiful. Upstairs, a charming loft offers flexible space for bedrooms, an office, or a cozy retreat, complete with a full bath, storage, and a window seat boasting the most spectacular Bay views — Listing agent is related to the seller.
