Property Description

There are two kinds of waterfront: the kind you look at, and the kind you live on. This is emphatically the second. Roughly 130 feet of the property's southern edge is Choctawhatchee Bay; open, deep water, facing south, which means sun on the water from morning to evening and both the sunrise and the sunset playing out across the bay rather than behind a neighbor's roofline. A 120-foot dock runs out to a boat lift over water deep enough to actually use it. No standing around waiting on the tide before you can go fishing. There's a fish-cleaning station and, this is not a typo, a shower, so you can catch dinner, clean it, and rinse off the evidence without ever setting foot on dry land. A vinyl seawall and rip rap hold the shoreline in place, the deeply unromantic infrastructure that keeps waterfront homes from quietly becoming underwater ones. The home itself is a solid all-brick ranch, aged gracefully and updated where it counts, with vaulted ceilings, a brick fireplace, and a family room pointed directly at the water with massive windows on 3 sides for a most epic view. For everything that refuses to live indoors (boats, kayaks, and the water toys that multiply once you live somewhere like this) there's a carport, a detached 2-car garage, and a separate storage building/workshop. A few things that matter more than they sound: no HOA, so no one will ever mail you a letter about your mailbox. Short-term rentals are permitted, making this a genuine income-producing property and not just a lovely place to stand. The seller is open to owner financing, which should catch your attention and is worth slowing down for. Instead of accepting whatever rate the bank is feeling that week, the terms here can be worked out directly: price, interest rate, down payment, and timeline all negotiable, subject to the seller's approval. For the right buyer, that can mean a faster close, fewer hoops, and a monthly number that actually pencils out. Some homes sell a lifestyle you'll never quite get around to. This is a place measured in fish caught, miles cruised, and sunsets that ask nothing of you but to sit still and watch. Peace and quiet come standard. The only real risk is forgetting what day it is.
