Spectacular views with direct access to Essex Bay, Beach and Ocean! Great opportunity to have a very rare waterfront property with dock only steps from your door in desirable Lufkin Point neighborhood. Total renovation was started and just needs a new Buyer's vision to finish. Property is gutted to the studs and has been newly framed for 2 bathrooms with large loft area. This very unique property has tons of potential with million dollar views and access.
