    Large islandAmazing viewsAmple gravel parking spaceLinen closetHome officeTile backsplashRiver views
    River views on River Road! This custom home is a new build which has never been lived in. Located in a quiet area of Bon Secour, Alabama, it sits on a 1.5 acre historic home site which is over 100 years old featuring beautiful, mature live oak trees. The layout of the home provides for a large living area, dining area, and kitchen which all have clear views of the Bon Secour River. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash, large island, and a large amount of cabinet space. Just down the hallway from the living area is a half bath for easy entertaining. Adjacent to the half bath is the laundry as well as the home office. Further down the hallway there are two bedrooms to the right with a large, full bathroom between them. The master bedroom is at the end of the hallway and features a walk in closet and ensuite bathroom with his and hers vanity, linen closet, and custom tile shower. All closets in the home have built in shelving. Both of the bedrooms on the north end of the home have doors which exit directly to the wraparound porch. There is no HOA and this home is also outside of city limits. The home has 1,620 square feet of conditioned space with 1,800 square feet under roof which is comprised of a large porch on three sides. At ground level under the home there is a 16' x 20' (320 sq. ft.) enclosed storage space. The property features ample gravel parking space, covered parking under the home, RV septic preparation, an 1,840 square foot enclosed workshop, as well as a 24' x 40' x 12' (960 sq. ft.) enclosed carport/RV/Boat cover. The doors to the enclosed shop are 9'6" H x 26' W. Inside the workshop is the well equipment and water filtration system. This property would be an amazing fit for the buyer with recreational vehicles, boats, motorcycles, etc. There is plenty of room to store all of those things securely out of the weather. The property would be accessible by the largest of RV's with excess room to maneuver and park. The roadway leading to the home is freshly paved as of January 2026. There is 144' of flat, maintained waterfront with plenty of water depth for a future dock as well as a boat launch within 200 yards of the home. This property, while in a quiet area, is not so remote that you are far from all of the many areas of interest in Baldwin County and surrounding areas. Here are a few examples: Jack Edwards National Airport - 9.8 miles, 21 minutes. Gulf Shores Public Beach - 11 miles, 25 minutes. Foley, AL - 10 miles, 19 minutes. Orange Beach, AL - 15 miles, 25 minutes. Fairhope, AL - 25 miles, 37 minutes. The Wharf, Orange Beach - 11 miles, 20 minutes. Mobile, Alabama - 42 miles, 56 minutes. Pensacola, Florida - 42 miles, 58 minutes. The bottom line is that this is a very well built home, on a unique lot, with amazing views and a lot to offer in amenities. We want to talk to you about it. Please call, do not text, Mr. James Hollis at 256- 255- 5084. You may also call/text Daniel Vandiver at 251-223-7071 if you are unable to reach Mr. Hollis.
