Property Description

Don't miss this LANDMARK waterfront property that is being brought to market. A mere minutes to the beautiful beaches of the Alabama Gulf Coast, this extraordinary piece of architecture was started in 1901 and not completed until 1906. The property consists of two parcels totaling 1.7 +/- acres and 264 +/- of waterfront on Brights Creek, which is just off of the Bon Secour River, a place the locals know is fitting for the meaning of the name “safe harbor”. The 4,039 +/- sqft home consists of two connected structures with a second story breezeway that includes 6 bedrooms, 3 baths, 6 fireplaces and a wood stove. The main house's grand entrance boasts original iron railings and concrete formed steps opening up to a large living area with a wood burning fireplace and stunning spiral staircase ascending to the second story. There is a storm/root cellar located under the kitchen floor. Dripping in moss-covered oak trees, the landscape slopes gently towards the boat docks located along Bright's Creek. The potential and opportunity this property exudes is endless if you have vision and a love of history. You won't want to miss seeing this gem and making it your own! Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.
