Perfection found! This custom built home was designed by locally famous architect (Craig Roberts) and is perfectly placed on a 1.5+ acre WATERFRONT lot that comes with beautiful sunsets and overlooks Dog River bridge. The attention to detail and craftsmanship in this house is hard to find, and you’re sure to love the rustic wide planked wood floors, exposed beams, French doors with a view of Dog River, and back porch that is perfect for enjoying the sunsets. It’s a waterfront lovers' dream come true— this house has NEVER flooded, has a well built bulkhead, has a beautifully constructed pier that includes a 10,000 pound boat lift, JetSki lift, and storage area. The property is privately tucked away but equipped with several security cameras. All showings must have a listing agent present. All updates per the seller. Listing company makes no representation as to accuracy of square footage; buyer to verify.

PENINSULA
Single-Family Residential Districts
These districts are composed of both developed and largely undeveloped areas. The developed areas contain mainly one-family dwellings and small open areas, usually subdivided, where residential development seems likely to occur; few two-family and multiple-family dwellings are found in these developed areas. It is anticipated that most of the large undeveloped areas will ultimately be developed for residential use. The district regulations are designed to protect the residential character of the developed areas by prohibiting commercial activities and encouraging a suitable neighborhood environment for family life.
