Fantastic opportunity to own a waterfront Gulf access home in the double-gated community of Southport on the Bay in Barefoot Beach. This home sits on one of the largest sites in the community (16,345 sq ft) with long water views, western exposure for great sunsets, private boat dock with lift in your back yard, approximately 15 minutes to the pass via direct gulf access with no bridges, plenty of room for a pool and your choice of two private beach accesses to beautiful Barefoot Beach. This 4 bedroom home offers soaring 22 foot beamed ceilings in the great room, an open floor plan, kitchen with gas cooktop, & three private guest bedrooms. The master suite includes an open sitting/reading area, large bedroom, private terrace, walk-in closet, & master bath featuring a jetted soaking tub. This home is the perfect family home or winter home. Lower level of this home was flooded during hurricane Ian including garage doors & lower level door, landscaping and other lower level items. Drywall was removed, debris removed and is ready for repairs. This home is a renovation/build candidate and this is the perfect time to reimagine it to exactly your specifications.
