Discover Gulf Shores at its finest at Compass Point on Little Lagoon. With one of the best locations in the building, this updated fourth-floor waterfront residence captures inspiring views of Little Lagoon and stunning sunsets over the water from the living area, primary bedroom, and private balcony. This is a relaxed coastal setting that is hard to find; Compass Point is known for its unique location that offers direct lagoon access, all while being just moments from the sugar-white beaches and shores of the Gulf. Inside, the layout is both functional and inviting, with an open living and dining area with bar seating that flows out toward the water, making the most of the amazing view. The two-bedroom, two-bath configuration allows for flexibility, whether used as a primary residence, second home, or rental investment. Recent updates to the condo include a new ultra-quiet Bosch dishwasher and stainless refrigerator in 2024. Additionally, the HVAC was replaced in 2020, and the ducts were cleaned in 2023, along with other updates, such as a new king mattress. The community amenities further enhance the appeal: a lagoon-front pool, newly renovated indoor pool, private fishing pier, boat launch, first-come boat slips, grilling area, and a private sandy beach area. Whether you enjoy sunny beach days, boating, kayaking, fishing, or simply relaxing by the water at sunset, everything is right at your doorstep - and it's just one block to the beach! Located on the quieter west end of Gulf Shores, Compass Point offers laid-back coastal surroundings while remaining just minutes from the best dining, shopping, and entertainment. And Compass Point has never looked better! Recent community upgrades - a remodeled indoor pool, building waterproofing and painting, and resurfacing of all walkways and balconies - make this waterfront destination truly shine! This is a strong opportunity to own a Gulf Coast condo that combines lagoon-front tranquility and easy proximity to the beach.
