Well maintained waterfront home with 300 ft long pier (WOW) replaced 2026 and an outdoor lift, accessible ground-2nd floor. Major 2026 updates include a replaced roof, replaced HVAC, and storm windows installed throughout, providing peace of mind for years to come. A mini-split system was installed approximately 2 years ago, and the kitchen appliances are approximately 5 years old. The kitchen features durable Formica countertops with coordinating Formica backsplash and wall accents for a cohesive look. An additional primary suite was added by a previous owner, providing valuable extra living space. Please note: according to the seller, this room is not included in the appraisal district’s reported square footage of approximately 1,400 SF. Buyers should verify measurements independently. Experience waterfront living at its best! Hop in your boat for a short ride across Dickinson Bay to Topwater Grill to enjoy fresh Gulf seafood, live music, and unforgettable sunset views.
