About This Property
Spanning thoughtfully designed living spaces, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom sanctuary maximizes every square foot while maintaining an airy, uncluttered aesthetic that mirrors the endless horizons surrounding you. The expansive sundeck becomes your outdoor living room, where morning coffee tastes better with unobstructed water views and evening cocktails are accompanied by nature's own light show. Fully furnished and move-in ready, the home includes essential off-grid amenities plus recreational treasures like kayaks for exploring hidden mangrove channels and a dedicated grill lounge for entertaining under star-filled skies.
The off-grid design isn't just environmentally conscious—it's liberating. Solar power, water systems, and thoughtful engineering create complete self-sufficiency while maintaining modern comfort. Yet accessibility remains refreshingly simple, with both boat and road access ensuring you're never truly isolated from civilization when you choose to rejoin it.

This isn't just waterfront property—it's front-row seating to one of nature's most spectacular ongoing performances.
