Designed for comfort and connection to the outdoors, this elevated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features an open-concept layout filled with natural light and a seamless flow to expansive wraparound porches--perfect for morning coffee, evening breezes, and soaking in the scenery. A standout feature is the tempered glass-enclosed all-season porch with its own mini-split, creating a year-round space to enjoy river views in total comfort--whether it's a quiet sunrise or a peaceful sunset after a day on the water. The property encourages a true coastal lifestyle, with a private concrete dock extending approximately 225-230 ft into the Bay River, complete with water, electricity & a 7K boat lift --ready for immediate use. A dedicated kayak/SUP launch adds even more versatility for exploring the shoreline.

Outdoor living is just as thoughtful, featuring a fenced yard, picnic area, and a heated outdoor shower--ideal after a day in the sun. Underneath the home, up to 5 covered bays offer ample room for boats, trailers, and gear. An additional storage/workshop space provides storage flexibility for hobbies, gear, or recreational equipment. A detached shed and 12x28 barn offer even more room for storage or creative use -ideal for housing all your coastal equipment. Recent kitchen updates include granite countertops, updated appliances, and soft-close European hinges, blending functionality with style. The lot is bulkheaded and riprapped for shoreline stability. With no HOA and a setting that balances privacy, comfort, and access to the water, this property is perfectly suited as a full-time residence or a peaceful coastal getaway. For coastal enthusiasts, it's the prime waterfront setup where year-round boating reigns and the focus is simple: getting out on the water.
