Immaculate waterfront coastal cottage with boat dock, numerous upgrades over the past 5 years, and even an artesian spring well! This storybook 3 bedroom, 2 bath brick home sits on 0.63 acres and boasts 99 feet of water frontage on a peaceful bayou that leads to the Blackwater River and out to Blackwater Bay - an ideal setting for kayaking, fishing, or navigating a mid-size boat out to open water. A 2023 dock installation includes a comfortable seating area, perfect for relaxing by the water. Outdoor living is elevated with over 500 sq. ft. of screened, covered patio space, offering beautiful sunset views. Extensive improvements were made throughout the home in 2021, including: Updated kitchen with new cabinets, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances; Updated bathroom vanities and mirrors; New windows; Hard-surface flooring; Modern lighting fixtures; New entry doors. Roof was new in 2019 and, in 2022, the crawl space was fully encapsulated for humidity and climate control, and quiet-close, hurricane-rated garage doors were installed. Additional upgrades include a new HVAC system with an Air Scrubber air purification unit, as well as a new well pump, and a new pump house to keep that artesian spring water flowing. The property offers exceptional privacy and recreation, while still providing the convenience of in-town living, with quick access to I-10 and close proximity to Hwy 90 and downtown Milton, Walmart, Publix, Aldi, restaurants, and more. Nature lovers will enjoy easy access to the 8.1 mile Blackwater Heritage State trail for walking, biking and jogging. Additional features include: A workshop and storage area under the same roof as the oversized two-car garage; A natural, ever-flowing artesian well providing fresh, great-tasting water; RV hookups with parking area beside the home; Transferable hurricane shutters. This distinctive waterfront home combines comfort, privacy, and modern upgrades for peace of mind—a true waterfront retreat.
