Fall in love with this cozy three bedroom, two bath home tucked away in the trees on the East End of Dauphin Island. Located on a dead end street, you'll enjoy peace and tranquility while listening to the birds chirp and taking in the sea breeze. Inside, you'll find a living room with a fire place and hardwood floors that flow into the breakfast area and kitchen on the first floor. A bedroom, a bathroom, and the utility room complete the first floor. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms with a bathroom in between. One of the bedrooms has a built in vanity and access to the balcony. The best living on Dauphin Island is outdoor living. The large front porch is the perfect place to enjoy an evening cocktail or your morning cup of coffee. Underneath the house, you'll find a storage room and still space for a swing, a hammock, picnic table and grill. You'll love the fact that it has a circular driveway and an established yard. Conveniently located to all Dauphin Island has to offer, this home is a short bike ride or golf cart ride away from Cadillac Square, the island wide bike bath, Billy Goat Hole public boat launch, Audubon Bird Sanctuary, the Alabama Aquarium, and much more. Whether it be a permanent residence or your own weekend getaway, this is an affordable opportunity to start living the Island lifestyle and see how Dauphin Island earned the official designation as the "Sunset Capital of Alabama".
