Waterfront properties have always been prized real estate - just ask any owner of a beachfront home! But even rarer is the owner who not only enjoys an unobstructed view of the water, but actually OWNS the water itself. And THAT is what makes this property so special. Peering out the back of this cute and happy brick rancher, you are master and commander of all that you see.
