Property Description

Welcome to your waterfront retreat on the highly sought-after east end of Dauphin Island! Perfectly positioned on picturesque Buchanan Bay with breathtaking views of Mobile Bay and the Dauphin Island Bridge, this beautiful Creole-style home offers over 2,600 square feet of coastal living at its finest. A beautifully landscaped front yard and expansive covered front porch create a warm first impression and the perfect place to relax and enjoy the island breeze. Inside, you’ll find a spacious dining room that flows seamlessly into the impressive living room featuring soaring vaulted ceilings and a wall of picture windows showcasing spectacular waterfront views. The oversized kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, offering an abundance of white cabinetry, a large center island, generous counter space, and a pass-through bar overlooking the living area. The main-level primary suite is a private oasis with French doors opening onto the expansive waterfront deck. The luxurious ensuite bath features dual vanities, an oversized jetted tub, separate walk-in shower, and a large walk-in closet. Upstairs, a spacious loft overlooking the living room is currently being used as a bedroom but would also make an ideal second living area, game room, or playroom. Just beyond is an additional bedroom complete with its own ensuite bath and walk-in closet. On the opposite side of the home, you’ll find another spacious bedroom and a full hall bath, providing plenty of room for family and guests. Step outside to enjoy the screened porch just off the living room, which opens to a sprawling deck spanning the entire back of the home. The backyard is shaded by a magnificent, mature oak tree and leads directly to the waterfront, where you’ll find your private dock and boat lift—perfect for boating, fishing, or simply soaking in the incredible sunsets. Additional features include a two-car garage with a rear garage door providing easy access to the waterside of the property. Whether you’re looking for a full-time residence, vacation getaway, or investment opportunity, this exceptional waterfront home offers the very best of Dauphin Island living.
