Rare waterfront opportunity in historic Cortez. Located off the north side of Cortez Road, this truly one-of-a-kind property offers so much. Sitting on a double lot of 150' of water frontage along one of the prettiest canals around, are the main home, detached guest cottage, RV barn, boat dock, & covered boathouse w/boat lift. Lovingly maintained by its original owner, this property has a warmth of days gone by while still affording some modern updates. The spacious main home has an open floor plan w/2 bedrooms & 2 baths. The open kitchen has custom hickory cabinets & newer appliances. The master bedroom w/adjoining bath has a walk-in closet & sliding doors that lead to your own private hot tub. The house comes equipped w/a central vac system. New roof on RV barn in 2016 & whole house in 2002. The large RV garage could also be used as a workshop or converted to more living space. The 1 bed/1 bath detached guest cottage is ideal for rental income or a mother-in-law suite. The yard has an underground sprinkler system fed by an artesian well. Bonus: invisible fence, fruit trees, & mature landscaping. In the backyard, relax on the deck & enjoy your peaceful oasis as you look across the beautiful mangrove-lined canal with no houses. Enjoy watching manatees, fish, water birds, & the occasional boat idling by. Room for a pool. The dock is equipped w/water & electric & fish-cleaning table. No HOA fees & no deed restrictions. The beach is less than a mile away. Paradise is calling. Be sure to watch the video tour.
