Unique home in a most unique, residential-only location. Expansive views of the gulf and Redfish Lake make this home and huge lot a rare find. What else? Originally built in the 1920's, the home was moved here in 2002 from Georgiana, Alabama, the birthplace of Hank Williams, Sr. The home was extensively renovated by Benoit Laurent,a craftsman and local upscale builder, including a new roof, hardi-board siding, new plumbing, central air conditioning, heat and electrical systems. The kitchen has Bosch DW,and a Kitchen Aid gas range. A three story tower was added with an enclosed staircase. Appraisers report reads ''Significant renovations lower the effective age of this home to 10 years'' Heart pine floors, wainscoting, and hand hewn beams make this home charmingly unforgettable.
