Description
There are two kinds of waterfront: the kind you look at, and the kind you live on. This is emphatically the second. Roughly 130 feet of the property's southern edge is Choctawhatchee Bay; open, deep water, facing south, which means sun on the water from morning to evening and both the sunrise and the sunset playing out across the bay rather than behind a neighbor's roofline.
A 120-foot dock runs out to a boat lift over water deep enough to actually use it. No standing around waiting on the tide before you can go fishing. There's a fish-cleaning station and, this is not a typo, a shower, so you can catch dinner, clean it, and rinse off the evidence without ever setting foot on dry land. A vinyl seawall and rip rap hold the shoreline in place, the deeply unromantic infrastructure that keeps waterfront homes from quietly becoming underwater ones.
The home itself is a solid all-brick ranch, aged gracefully and updated where it counts, with vaulted ceilings, a brick fireplace, and a family room pointed directly at the water with massive windows on 3 sides for a most epic view. For everything that refuses to live indoors (boats, kayaks, and the water toys that multiply once you live somewhere like this) there's a carport, a detached 2-car garage, and a separate storage building/workshop.
