Mack Bayou Drive. Surrounded by upscale gated neighborhoods, this location offers peace and privacy while keeping you close to everything. This property is a proven six-figure turnkey rental or an ideal retreat away from the hustle of the beach. Inside, the split floor plan creates an easy, welcoming flow with luxury LVP and tile throughout. The private primary suite opens directly to the pool for a true resort feel. The kitchen and bathrooms have been tastefully updated, and the home is fully furnished with stainless steel appliances already in place. The seller has elected to add a separate, dedicated laundry room in the main house, while the existing laundry located in the primary suite closet will remain, offering added convenience and flexibility. A new metal roof in 2025, updated electrical and plumbing, and both electric and gas availability indoors and outdoors provide confidence and convenience. Step into the backyard and enjoy a resort-style setting, where the pool features water elements, lighting, and an attached spa for relaxing any time of day. A screened outdoor living area with a fireplace creates the perfect space for gathering or unwinding. The outdoor shower, drive-through garage, and ample parking make this home easy to enjoy and easy to host. Located just minutes from 30A beaches, restaurants, and shops, this solid brick home delivers both lifestyle and long-term value. If you are searching for a strong income producer or a quiet place to call home, you have found it. Primary laundry is located in the master bath closet. Seller will add a second laundry in the bunk/closet area shown with acceptable offer. Renderings are illustrative only; contractor is lined up.
