A short walking distance to EASY BEACH ACCESS and the beautiful GULF waters, THE SANDPIPER beach house is a special showplace with its crisp color palette and SOARING VAULTED CEILINGS in every room. Large, EXPANSIVE WINDOWS wrap around the living area of the entire house. The interior space is a modern blend that's comfortable, cozy, and clean, with low maintenance luxury vinyl plank flooring, updated fixtures, and a programmable HVAC thermostat. The refrigerator, stove, and washer/dryer were replaced in the past 4 years, along with some window improvements and an outside storage room. New grinder pump in 2023. Want a pool? Great news, there's enough room to build one. And the patio area under the house is a great spot for a shrimp boil, tossing cornhole, or a private refuge for book reading. There's also plenty of lounging space on the huge back deck where you have access from the main entry, kitchen, and guest bedroom. Bring your dogs, Fort Morgan is a pet friendly beach. More than just a vacation destination, THE SANDPIPER beach house is a testament to this laid-back beach setting where you'll be captivated by the faint aroma of salt air and vibrant horizon vistas.
