WATERFRONT LIVING WITHOUT THE WATERFRONT PRICE TAG! Welcome to your own slice of paradise, where afternoons on the water and evenings entertaining friends become part of everyday life. This beautifully updated, all-brick 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers direct access to a tidal, navigable creek connecting to the Ortega River. Whether you enjoy kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, or taking the jet ski out for a spin, your waterfront adventures begin right in your own backyard. A floating dock accommodates a small boat up to 15 feet or a personal watercraft, making it easy to embrace life on the water. Inside, you'll find gleaming hardwood floors, beautiful finishes, a wood-burning fireplace, and thoughtful updates throughout. Recent improvements include fresh exterior paint within the last two years, a new double-pane sliding glass door, a new refrigerator, and updated fencing. A sprinkler system adds convenience, while the basement storage area provides plenty of room for all your outdoor gear and water toys. But the backyard is where this home truly shines! Designed for relaxation and entertaining, the outdoor space offers the perfect setting for watching football, hosting friends, or simply unwinding in the late afternoon sunshine. Enjoy the low-maintenance turfed yard, added privacy fencing, and a dedicated garden area, with additional space to explore the possibility of a pool or accessory dwelling unit. Whether you're entertaining on land or exploring the waterways, this home brings together comfort, recreation, and the laid-back waterfront lifestyle you've been looking for. Come for the home, stay for the lifestyle!
