Beautiful two story in a quieter section of the Bolivar Peninsula. Literally steps from the beach and a short golf cart ride to the new Rollover Fishing Pier.

This four bedroom home has the capacity to accommodate up to 16 and has a strong rental history. Fresh paint and other recent upgrades including new flooring.
