About This Property
Move into The Captain's Quarters on Gottried Creek! Desirable location near downtown and close to beaches! Plenty of room for your boat, kayaks, cars, RV.'s and other equipment at this "Sportsman's Paradise"! Home features the best western sunset view over the creek and the beautiful ever-changing Mangroves. The large 1.2 (MOL) acre lot is zoned RSF5, allowing up to five units acre so you can likely build an additional cottage (or two) for rental or guests! Insurance on this home is REASONABLE! Owner currently pays and chooses NOT to have Flood Insurance. After Helene/Milton, Endura Flood Panels were installed throughout downstairs in lieu of sheetrock. All Tile and Hydrostop floors! This makes for easy restoration if water were to ever enter again! In 1998 the original home was extensively remodeled/rebuilt and had additional space as well as electrical upgrades, hard internet/cable wiring and security system and an elevator added! Entire perimeter of house and garage is solidly built with all cinderblock (CBS) construction on lower floor. The oversized 860 sq. ft. air-conditioned and insulated garage features an epoxy floor in the workshop area with ample storage for 2 cars, bicycles and all your tools and gear! Over the last five years more than was spent replacing metal roofs, soffits and gutters which are all to current code. This home has a true 'Old Florida' vibe. You can kayak to Lemon Bay directly from your floating dock! Launch your boat from your private 8500 lb. lift, go under one bridge (almost 9' clearance) to Lemon Bay and be in the crystalline blue waters of the ICW and Gulf of Mexico just 15 minutes beyond. See Ibis, Osprey and Blue Herons and watch the mullet jump from your 500 sq ft screened deck. Enjoy fishing, the "beach life" and observe a vibrant ecosystem from your back door. Let the daily rhythm of the tide set your pace!
