Experience the Art of Living Well at This Stunning River Cottage!
Nestled on the serene banks of the river, this exquisite five-bedroom, seven full and two half-bathroom cottage offers the perfect blend of luxury, nature, and convenience. Whether you're casting a line from the dock to catch trout or boating over to Pelican Spit in just two minutes, this home immerses you in the best of coastal living.
Marvel at the sight of painted buntings and bald eagles, or watch the moon rise over Little St. Simons Island from the comfort of your backyard. The meticulously maintained property showcases top-of-the-line construction, including cast stone floors, three Rumford fireplaces with gas starters, and a private elevator. The heart of the home is a custom kitchen, thoughtfully designed and adjoining a spacious family room that offers stunning views of the water.
The primary bedroom boasts expansive views and flows seamlessly into a large sunroom, complete with a charming daybed swing. Every detail of the interiors has been professionally decorated with a serene color palette that perfectly complements the tranquil surroundings and the preserved landscape across to Little St. Simons Island.
For golf enthusiasts, a path leads directly to the sixth hole of the Ocean Forest Golf Course, while the cottage's thoughtful design allows for a "lock-and-leave" lifestyle, offering ample time to enjoy the beauty of life here. Additional amenities include a golf cart garage for easy access to nearby attractions.
Come experience the luxury of riverfront living, where nature and comfort meet in perfect harmony.
