Easy Beach Access, Gulf Views, Metal Roof & High-Impact Windows! Here’s your chance to own a classic island cottage with Gulf views, just about a block from the beach. A brand-new boardwalk is under construction across roughly 8 acres of open dunes, leading straight to the white sand and water—making this spot even more desirable for beachgoers, investors, or handy buyers looking for a solid opportunity. The home features an open floor plan with spacious living and dining areas and a functional kitchen with granite countertops, rich wood cabinets, a breakfast bar, and ceramic tile floors. The main bedroom has been partially updated with a shiplap ceiling and a fully remodeled ensuite bathroom featuring a marble countertop, new vanity, and a large tiled shower. The hall bath includes a pedestal sink and more shiplap touches. You’ll find wood ceilings and wood-look LVT flooring throughout the main areas, adding warmth and coastal character. Updates include high-impact windows, some electrical improvements, and low-maintenance vinyl siding. Dauphin Island is a true escape on the northern Gulf Coast—laid-back and low-key, with no stoplights, friendly locals, and a reputation for some of the best fishing and birdwatching around. It’s also surprisingly convenient, with New Orleans, Biloxi, and Pensacola all accessible via I-10 and Mobile just a 30–40 minute drive away. Whether you're looking for a weekend retreat, a rental investment, or a renovation project with serious potential, this beach cottage offers a rare chance to own on Dauphin Island’s quiet west end. With Gulf views, easy beach access, and key updates already in place, it’s ready for your ideas and vision to take it the rest of the way. Sold as is. Survey available.
