This cottage style home originally built Circa 1900 has been lovingly restored to include 3 bedrooms each with its own ensuite bath. Enjoy breathtaking views overlooking the Shipyard Creek out toward the Skidaway Narrows from most rooms, or from the large screened porch or dock. The kitchen has a gas cooktop, double wall ovens, granite counter tops and movable island with a butcher block top. The wood burning masonry fireplace in the living room is perfect for those chilly evenings. There is custom built cabinetry throughout the home. This very private property is tucked away off of Shipyard Road with access via a private drive. In addition to the home there is a 3 car detached carport along with a large cement block garage/workshop. Perfect setup for someone wishing to keep their boat or RV on their own property with no burdensome HOA rules.
