About this home

This waterfront 13.5 acre parcel sits along Gooseneck Cove off Ocean Drive. The cove which has been brought back to life with federal, state, and local funding is the home to various aquatic species. The approved permitting offers the opportunity to build a 10-bedroom home, pool, pool house, and guest house. There is the possibility to amend the approved plans. This land is part of the former Arthur Curtis James estate. Its specimen trees and the topography make this land very special. Views from atop the hill slope down across the cove into open ocean. The privacy and setting offer a sanctuary from the busy world.
