Adorable Cottage in Cabana Beach! Short-term rentals allowed! Perfectly situated between the Gulf of Mexico and Mobile Bay, Cabana Beach Estates is a quiet, secluded neighorhood off the beaten path. It's a perfect location where vacationers and full-time residents co-exist nicely enjoying the neighborhood private Gulf-Front Beach as well as the private neighbood park on Mobile Bay with fishing pier. This quaint very well-built cottage comes fully furnished, has 3 bedrooms 2 bathrooms a large open floor plan living, dining, kitchen, and sitting area. So much craftmanship in the wooden ceilings, tongue and groove walls, and hand-made bunk beds. You'll love the gas range in the kitchen and large picture window that overlooks the wooded back yard. Enjoy mornings on the screened-porch drinking your coffee and listening to the sounds of nature. The beach is a short walk or golf-cart ride away with car parking available as well. If you enjoy water sports, the private neighborhood fishing pier is just across the road from the community entrance. There's also a public boat launch right up the road. Cabana Beach residents also have the ability to purchase a "non-resident membership" to the Beach Club Resort next door where you'll find multiple pools, tennis courts, exercise facilities, restaurants and more. Whether you are looking to make Gulf Shores your full-time home , RETIREMENT HOME with NO STAIRS, or looking for a 2nd home investment property, I think you'll fall in love with this special home. Small annual HOA fee of $300 helps maintain the community beach and bay access and there is also an annual road maintenance assessment of $300. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.
