Your arrival sets the tone, with open water views as you drive in and a quiet cul-de-sac that offers real peace and privacy. Inside, 2,100 sq ft of light-filled living sits among mature oaks. The third-floor primary suite is the showpiece: water views, a custom walk-in closet, and a private balcony made for morning coffee. The ground floor adds a versatile suite that works as a guest quarters, pool house and game room, or in-law suite for multigenerational living (not included in the advertised square footage). A one-car garage handles the boards, bikes, and gear. Outside, nearly half an acre is built for entertaining, with multiple decks surrounding a brand-new heated saltwater pool and hot tub. Right across the street, follow the oak-lined path to your boat slip, which has a brand-new 26 ft, 10,000 lb lift and an 8x20 dock. From there you're minutes to Snow's Cut, the ICW, and open water. Sunsets are what you'll plan your evenings around. Opportunities like this in Shipwatch don't come along often.
