Overhead, Osprey and Bald Eagles patrol the sky. It is nature’s highway, and this property gives you one of the best seats on it. A property survey, marine survey, engineering study, and architectural plans for a custom approximately 3,000-square-foot elevated coastal residence, boat dock, and lift have already been completed and are transferable, representing a substantial savings of time and money already absorbed by the current owner.
