Sellers have loved this tropical retreat as their primary home and were hoping to keep it and continue to upgrade as a second home but one of the sellers suffered a longterm injury so they need to sell in order to buy a primary home closer to work. There's room for a pool, RV, or big garage. Each lot has its own water and electric hook up. Second lot even has a concrete pad and two 50 amp RV outlets. If you want something with charm and character you will love the high ceilings, crown molding, water views, ceiling fans and lots of natural light. Room for a third bedroom. Also available as a 181 day seasonal furnished rental for $4500 a month (furnished and including utilities/wifi) or $2000 a month annual (furnished/unfurnished)
