If you're looking for a run-of-the-mill, rectangle of a house, stop reading now. This unique home, custom designed and built by an architect, takes full advantage of its spectacular location on Florida Bay. A second floor promenade mimics the peninsula on which the house sits. Huge picture windows bring in the glorious water views. Antique porthole windows in the primary bedroom offer a glimpse of the water and the starry sky. Even the showers offer views of the Bay. Recent updates provide both a more open feel through the kitchen to the wide water views and more privacy for the two bedroom suites. All new appliances, a concealed TV lift cabinet, a new stairway and a butler's pantry improve accessibility and convenience.The property is a boater's dream, with direct water access to the Bay and to the ocean through Tavernier or Snake Creek. You'll have your own 30-foot dock with a hydraulic boat lift in a protected canal, plus a basin surrounded by a 182-foot long electrified L-shaped wooden dock. The first floor gives you storage and a two-car garage with plenty of room for your workshop, fishing rods and water toys. Feel like a trip to Miami? Take your boat -- or your yacht! It's just a few hours away. (Of course, it's under two hours by car -- but a lot less fun.)The house is built like a fortress. Concrete construction, impact windows, accordion shutters, a whole house generator and even a cistern will keep you secure no matter the weather. Recent upgrades like a new AC system will keep you comfortable year-round.The lovely waterfront High Point neighborhood is safe with a Sheriff's substation nearby. It's an ideal home for anyone who loves boating and loves the water.
