This is the kind of Gulf Shores home that feels easy to settle into. Tucked along a quiet canal, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home has 1,632 square feet, a big backyard, and the kind of location that’s hard to beat. The updated kitchen opens into a comfortable living space, but the screened-in porch overlooking the canal may end up being your favorite spot in the house. It feels peaceful and private in the backyard, while the front of the home has views toward Little Lagoon.
The screened-in porch overlooking the water is the kind of spot you’ll actually use—morning coffee, dinner outside, or just sitting out at the end of the day. The backyard feels peaceful and private, and from the front of the house, you even have views of Little Lagoon.
And then there’s the beach, you’re only about 0.7 mile away on foot or a quick 4-minute drive. Restaurants, shops, and everything else you love about Gulf Shores are close by, but the house itself feels tucked away from the busier parts of town.
It feels tucked away without feeling far from anything, and that’s what makes this one so special. Whether you’re looking for a full-time home or your own place near the beach, this is one of those properties that just feels good the minute you pull up. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.
