Boats and the Bayou and Bay, oh my! A rare gem in a dreamy location in Gulfport's Marina District. This block-built move-in ready beauty is on a corner, DOUBLE, buildable LOT! *** Three bedrooms including a serene master suite upstairs, two and a half baths, open kitchen, classic Terrazzo floors, and a roomy one-and-a-half car garage. *** The bright and airy bedroom suite awaits on the second level with a roomy ensuite bath and two walk-in closets, the bedroom so luminous with natural light and featuring a private walk-out deck with steps leading to yet a THIRD deck for a bird's eye view of this verdant paradise known for spectacular skies and gentle gulf breezes. Downstairs, the lovely screened patio (with its own bathroom in this 3-bath home) is right off the living room, another glorious space for enjoying the tropical grounds, the best of Florida indoor/outdoor living. ***We're in love with the original touches, from the artistic metal railing in the master suite to the cobalt blue-flecked kitchen island custom made of recycled glass. *** This lovingly-maintained home is just a stone's throw from Gulfport's Clam Bayou Nature Preserve, a treasured spot for hiking, launching a kayak, walking, and observing an exquisite variety of coastal birds. Whether you choose to go boating or just enjoy the views of sailboats drifting serenely by, the Marina is just steps away, and Gulfport's vibrant, artsy downtown with its fabulous restaurants is an easy bike ride or 15-minute walk. ***There are so many possibilities for the second lot, limited only by your imagination—enjoy it as a private tropical retreat, create the spa pool of your dreams or build anew. The private grounds are filled with Florida-friendly trees and plants from Live Oaks and Sea Grape to Peruvian Pear to the great Saw Palms along the perimeter. *** Sparkling clean and move-in ready, this Gulfport home will give you every reason to live your best life in one of the most desirable little towns on Florida's Gulf Coast.
