Welcome to coastal living in the heart of Foley, where elegance meets the tranquility of waterfront life along breathtaking shores of Wolf Bay—a setting known for its peaceful beauty and stunning views. This estate is gracefully positioned on over 1.2 acres, offering approximately 145 feet of pristine shoreline and panoramic views of the bay. From the moment you arrive, the property exudes a sense of privacy, space, and refined coastal charm rarely found in today’s market. Spanning more than 3,200 square feet, this thoughtfully designed residence features four spacious bedrooms and four well-appointed bathrooms, creating the perfect balance of comfort and sophistication. Inside, the home opens to expansive living areas filled with natural light and designed to frame the serene water views at every turn. At the heart of the home, the chef-inspired kitchen is both functional and impressive—complete with a commercial-style refrigerator, gas cooktop, icemaker, wine cooler, and beautiful granite countertops—great for entertaining or crafting memorable family meals. One of the standout features is the climate-controlled sunroom, a true showpiece that invites you to relax year-round while overlooking the shimmering waters of Wolf Bay. Whether it’s your morning coffee or evening unwind, this space delivers a front-row seat to coastal living at its finest. Step outside and you’ll find a waterfront setup built for both leisure and adventure. A pier and boat dock extend into the bay, with two lifts for access to the water. Additionally, a covered boat slip with lift and recessed into the land offers protection for your vessel, making this a boater’s dream property. The home also has a three-car garage, a metal roof, and ample outdoor space to create your own private oasis. Despite its serene setting, this estate is just minutes from everything; shopping at Tanger Outlets, OWA Parks & Resort, fine dining and nightlife and those sugar white beaches of the Gulf of Mexico.
