The backyard is a private retreat, complete with a sparkling pool, an adorable covered patio ideal for outdoor dining or lounging, and plenty of room to entertain. Theres covered parking, space for a boat trailer, and generous off-street parking. Boaters will appreciate the 50 feet of dockage on an 85-foot wide, flow-through canal–just seven homes in from open water and around the corner from Vaca Cut, providing quick access to both the Atlantic and the Gulf. While compact in footprint, the interior is exceptionally well designed–with no wasted space and a layout that lives larger than expected. Both bedrooms easily accommodate king-size beds with room to spare, combining comfort and efficiency not often found in homes of this scale. Whether youre seeking a weekend escape or a full-time home that delivers on both charm and functionality, this is an exceptional opportunity in one of Marathons most beloved waterfront enclaves.
