Property Description

Perched along one of the most coveted stretches of Historic Mobile Bay's Boardwalk, this extraordinary waterfront compound presents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own 2.52± acres encompassing two separately deeded parcels with approximately 150± feet of pristine bay frontage. With a sandy beach, private wharf, and breathtaking panoramic views stretching across Mobile Bay, this remarkable estate is a place where gentle bay breezes and spectacular sunset skies become part of everyday life. Designed as an exceptional family retreat or legacy estate, the property features four residential buildings and one auxiliary structure for laundry and storage, creating a private waterfront compound with endless possibilities. Framing the entrance are two wonderfully designed, mirror-image residences, each offering approximately 1,793 square feet with three bedrooms, two baths, soaring vaulted ceilings, beaded board detailing, expansive windows capturing magnificent bay views, spacious great rooms with fireplaces, and separate kitchens and dining rooms thoughtfully designed for comfortable coastal living. The centerpiece of the compound is an impressive raised coastal cottage designed for gathering family and friends. This expansive six-bedroom, six-bath residence features an open-concept floor plan with a spacious living area, breakfast bar seating, four -bedroom suites on the main level, two additional bedroom suites upstairs, and an inviting second-floor loft/den overlooking the living spaces below. A generous laundry room and abundant storage enhance both convenience and functionality. Whether enjoyed as a private waterfront sanctuary, multi-generational family retreat, or luxury vacation property, the estate offers an unparalleled lifestyle in one of the Gulf Coast's most treasured settings. The combination of acreage, waterfront, beach, wharf, and multiple residences makes this a truly irreplaceable offering. Equally compelling is the property's outstanding redevelopment potential. Under current zoning and code, the site allows for up to four residential dwellings-2 per parcel, should a future owner choose to create an entirely new waterfront estate or collection of luxury homes. This offering provides exceptional flexibility for investment, redevelopment, or long-term legacy planning. Properties of this caliber—with expansive acreage, substantial Mobile Bay frontage, private beach and wharf, multiple residences, and exceptional building opportunities—are exceedingly rare. This is more than a home; it is an iconic waterfront estate where generations will gather, celebrate, and create lasting memories against the timeless beauty of Historic Mobile Bay.
