Property Description

Wake up every morning to beautiful views of Indian Bay and Little Dauphin Island. This fabulous custom built water front home sits on one of the best lots on the Island. There's a gunite pool with hot tub overlooking the water, a large dock partially covered with a 10,000 lb capacity boat lift and a boat slip on the other side. The location is ideal since it has not only deep water, but quick access to the Gulf or Sound. This is a fisherman's dream! The panoramic water view is spectacular. There is a water view from every room. You'll enjoy beautiful sunsets over Indian Bay and gorgeous sunrises from the porch facing little Dauphin Island. With 5 bedrooms and 3-1/2 baths, it is the perfect place for large families. Built gold fortified to higher than required building standards, you'll notice the superior construction from the metal roof to the hardie plank siding. Step out to the huge waterfront porch from the great room or the master bedroom. This wide covered porch is the perfect place to relax with your morning coffee or an afternoon drink. This spacious home flows beautifully. The kitchen is a chef's dream with tons of cabinets, granite countertops and a large island. The appliances are high end professional lines include a Frigidaire Gallery refrigerator, Zline Professional gas range with electric oven, Bosch dishwasher and microwave. There are water views from every room in the house. You'll find the master bedroom on the main level with a master bath with separate vanities, a water closet, separate shower and a free standing soaking tub. There are his/hers closets just inside the bath as well. Upstairs, besides a large loft used as a children's bunk room, there are three bedrooms and a large laundry currently used as an office. The center hallway accommodates a coffee station area and has french doors leading to a porch facing little Dauphin Island. There's also a large sliding glass door leading to the upstairs porch which has a covered area and an open area for sunbathing. The loft bedroom shares a jack and jill bath with the north guest bedroom. The two bedrooms on the south side share the hall bath. Underneath you'll find a large storage room/work shop, an outdoor bar and a three staircases leading upstairs. The owners thought of everything. There's a 50 amp RV hookup with water & sewer, whole house gas generator, and sprinkler system. There is so much space inside and out! Properties like this don't come along very often, so hurry to Dauphin Island, the official Sunset Capital of Alabama, where the pace is slow and life is sweet.
