**”Important Note: This home was impacted by the back-to-back hurricanes of 2024 and experienced flooding. A professional contractor had began repairs on the home, removed all necessary areas of the walls, completed mold remediation, and installed a brand-new mini-split air conditioning system. Please note that some of the photographs in this listing were taken prior to the hurricanes and may not fully reflect the current condition of the property. However, they showcase what this home once was—and the potential of what it can be again. Selling As-Is, this property offers a blank slate for buyers to create their dream waterfront retreat, with an incredible location, at an unbeatable price.
