Great little cottage just steps from the beach and has a beautiful view of the Gulf. The cottage sits on the back half of a large lot with plenty of room to build a main house in front and use the cottage as a guest house. Never been on the rental program but would make a great rental. Lots of potential with this property. Deeded beach access at end of street.
