Property Description
Rare west-facing waterfront coastal retreat offers the perfect combination of acreage, water access, and views that don't come to the market very often. The 2-bedroom, 2-bath home is perfectly sized for a weekend escape, guest cottage, or interim residence while you plan your dream build. Upstairs is one spacious bedroom and bathroom, living area with abundant natural light, and kitchen complete with breakfast nook. Downstairs bedroom has separate entrance through the patio, Cedar closet in the downstairs bedroom provides a unique feature. The true value lies in the land and lifestyle, featuring a private dock for water access and a two-story barn ideal for storage, hobbies, or future possibilities. The expansive lot provides both privacy and flexibility, creating an ideal opportunity for expansion. Unwind in the evenings with stunning sunset views that feel straight out of a postcard. Whether you're boating, fishing, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of waterfront that offers both tranquility and long-term potential. The hobbies don't stop at the dock. A gardener's dream come true with azalea bushes and the island's original camilla farm. Trees provide a lush natural canopy over the property. NO HOA. This lot comes with an opportunity to join the Burnside Island Yacht Club (not pictured) which maintains a deep water dock and boat ramp on McAlpin St on the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW).
