This beautiful home has been loved for many years by only 2 owners and offers direct access to the Gulf with deep water canal. Unfortunately, the hurricane took the inside structure away however, it is cleaned and ready for your design. No longer any cabinets or flooring, just the concrete slab and walls which are ready for you to leave or redesign.
