Welcome to your turnkey island retreat - a fully renovated vintage cottage on a natural canal with deep-water dock & access to the ICW. Located just steps from OIB's best amenities, this home is within walking distance to restaurants and the iconic pier.
Step outside to over 1,000 sq. ft. of finished entertaining spaces, where coastal living truly shines. The massive rear deck features Trex decking and a pergola, perfect for relaxing or hosting gatherings with serene canal views. Below the house, you'll find a custom Tiki bar crafted from reclaimed wood, adding a touch of island charm. The professionally landscaped yard includes mature palm trees, along with a floating dock with a no-maintenance aluminum ramp and built-in seating - ideal for kayaking and fishing. The large, fenced backyard provides ample space for outdoor lawn games.
Inside, the home blends timeless charm with modern luxury. The open-concept living area features original vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and tongue-and-groove paneling, while the updated kitchen boasts granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and a shiplap accent wall. The expanded primary bedroom offers a private retreat with a Mitsubishi mini-split HVAC system, a marble vanity in the ensuite bath, and a custom-tiled shower with a solar tube for natural light. Sliding glass doors lead to the deck, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. This home comes fully equipped for the ultimate coastal lifestyle, including a 2021 Club Car Onward street-legal golf cart, kayaks, and lawn games. Additional premium features include a fortified roof with a lifetime warranty, Hardie vertical panel siding, and an irrigation system to maintain the pristine landscaping.
