About this home

Historic, Quaint, and Uniquely Rare Coastal Cottage! The serene retreat nestled under the oaks & resting on the Bon Secour River that you've been dreaming about, has finally been made available! BRAND NEW BOAT HOUSE! The cottage was renovated in 2022 and features a large front porch for viewing the sunsets over the river, central heating and cooling, a fenced back yard for your favorite furry companion to enjoy, plus many other highlights. This old world property is like no other with a large yard, mature shady trees for relaxing, a boat ramp mere yards away, custom boat house, fisheries very near to buy fresh seafood right off of the boat, one of Baldwin County's amazing restaurants right up the road, and an amazing river that can be used to access Mobile Bay & the Gulf of Mexico for unlimited fishing & recreational opportunities. This property is part of a larger parcel that Baldwin county has agreed to be subdivided. The final survey is not yet in hand but the property will be approximately 1+/- acre with about 100' of river frontage. A county aerial representing the new division & an existing survey showing the new property line are uploaded in additional documents. 16789 River Road adjacent to this property is also available for purchase. Professional photos to be added next week.
