Exceptional Waterfront Opportunity – Bring Your Vision This level waterfront property offers a rare opportunity for an investor, builder, or buyer looking to create a custom waterfront retreat. The home is not safe to enter and is being sold as-is. Interior access will not be permitted due to ongoing renovations and safety concerns. Most windows have been removed and securely boarded. The current owner has already completed substantial improvements, providing a strong foundation for the next phase of the project, including: New metal roofs on both the house and outbuilding Removal of eight approximately 100-foot dead trees Interior demolition completed, including removal of drywall and bathroom fixtures Underground electrical service installed New concrete back porch Masonry fireplace remodeled New well pump installed Large interior water pressure tank installed and currently supplying water New vinyl boundary fence installed by Long Fence Shed interior freshly painted Professional termite treatment completed The waterfront lot is level and offers excellent potential. The existing pier will require rebuilding, creating the opportunity to design a dock that meets your needs and applicable permitting requirements. If you've been searching for a waterfront property where much of the difficult preparation work has already been completed, this is an opportunity you won't want to miss. Bring your contractor, your imagination, and your plans to transform this property into something truly special.
