The Primary Bedroom is situated on the east side of the first of two living floors and offers ample storage along with a recently renovated ensuite bathroom. Direct access to the wraparound deck is provided through classic multipaned French doors, where privacy and a tropical setting come together. The deck provides ample room for a jacuzzi, should the new owner desire one, or for a complement of patio furniture for outdoor entertaining and relaxation. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms joined by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. The western bedroom possesses bird's-eye views over the water through impact-rated sliding doors, and those views come to life the moment you step through the sliders onto the private open balcony. The bathroom is both functional and charming, with classic coastal décor and a private water closet and bath that can be closed off with pocket doors. The easterly guest room is quaint yet spacious enough to accommodate guests of all ages and would also serve well as an office or exercise room. With this floor plan, it is not uncommon for the western guest room to become the Primary Bedroom, while the eastern guest room serves as a Primary office or den. “Fancy Free Cottage” has received a wide range of updates and thoughtful attention in recent years, creating a truly move-in-ready property without the need for renovation or significant additional work. Its location and position provide a sense of waterfront living, complete with expansive water views and convenient dockage amid a lush tropical setting—all within a quaint and manageable package offered below $1,000,000.
