Island, on the North Newport River, in Midway, GA. Cherished by a single
family since 1966, this property is now available and on the market for the
first time ever and is indeed, a rare find. Tucked in on a quiet dead end road, this is not merely a home, it is an

on the dock, evenings on the screened porch, and the kind of peace that
only deep water living can provide. Step outside into a life well-lived. Swimming, boating, fishing -
all in your front yard. Built in 2019, this beautifully constructed waterfront
home was crafted for exactly this type of coastal life. Inside, soaring 18 foot ceilings crown the main living room and kitchen,
creating a breathtaking sense of volume and light, while 9 foot ceilings flow
through the rest of the home, maintaining an airy, open feeling. The kitchen
is expansive and built for gathering and entertaining in style, with leathered
granite countertops, Bosch appliances and a center island. The main floor
offers 1,160 SF, 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The screened porch across the
front of the home is designed for seamless indoor/outdoor living and
incredible water views. Discover endless possibilities in the versatile 582 SF bonus space below the main
home. Perfectly situated on the lower level with its own separate entrance
and full bath, this space is climate controlled and can adapt effortlessly to
your lifestyle. Whether you envision a billiards room, an art studio or just
simply climate controlled storage, this room delivers the freedom to make it
your own. In just a few steps, you’re outside on your covered patio with
waterfront views. Colonels Island is one of coastal Georgia’s most treasured and private
communities, loved by coastal enthusiasts and conservationists. Don’t wait, properties of this caliber and legacy don’t last long.
