Assoc beach, fp, central ac, captain's walk with waterview. Includes lot across the street for additional parking. See tour link for floor plan. This solid, attractive granite home, was constructed from material blasted and cut on site. The house is not in the flood zone. Originally built as a two family (upstairs/downstairs) and reconfigured as a single family in the mid- 1970s, some of the original interior design considerations are available. Third floor "cupola" with great views is a nice room for reading or quiet retreat. Lot is 100 x 110 with additional 50 x 99 lot across the street. Mulberry point is a little slice of heaven. It is a picturesque and safe area with a beautiful and exclusive association beach.
