Tucked along a quiet canal in Fairhope's Bay Haven community, this home was built for life on the water. A circular gravel drive leads to a home full of character: beamed ceilings, walls of windows, gutters, and a metal roof (2004). The kitchen features a Jenn Aire cooktop, granite counters, a stone backsplash; which opens to a vaulted living room with a built-in wet bar. Three bedrooms include a primary suite with a walk-in closet and en-suite bath, plus a hidden attic lookout. Plus, a bonus room. A freight elevator connects the levels, and a recently rescreened porch overlooks a backyard shaded by an oak tree. The ground level adds a full bath, bedroom, and garage with room for a boat or RV. The real draw is the water: canal-front with bay access within a quarter mile, a short cruise to Weeks Bay and Mobile Bay. A covered boat house with an automatic lift for up to a 21-22 ft boat, covered storage, and a private dock (30' x 8'/Built 2024), water depth varies depending on the tide changes (<3.5') — with no HOA. Recent updates add peace of mind: the A/C compressor was replaced in 2025 and serviced in August 2026, the septic tank was serviced in 2022, and natural gas is available to the property. A rare canal retreat for the boater or entertainer at heart. Expected Listing Date: 09/15/26.
