Want the best of both worlds? Bay front and close by private community beach access on one of the prettiest areas on the beach? Prince George is a beautiful, spacious bay front home on pristine St. Joseph Bay on North Cape San Blas only one-half mile from the state park entrance. As you enter the majestic circular drive, and see the home and Bay, you know that you have arrived at your special vacation spot. Hot tub on upper deck coming September 2009!
Enjoy the privacy and peacefulness of this special home with expansive views of the bay which is less than 100 feet from the house. Watch the awesome sunrises and eagles, and shore birds from the house, dock, huge screened porch or open sundeck. The sunrise view over St Joseph Bay was so magnificent that it was recently featured in an Atlanta Southeast Airlines magazine article featuring the Forgotten Coast.
The private dock is your entryway to the bay for fishing, boating, kayaking, snorkeling and scalloping. The fish cleaning station on the dock provides you with the perfect place to clean your catch and to help you prepare for those great fresh seafood meals.
Deeded beach access is a short one-third mile away. Parking is available at the beach access, within fifty yards of the beach.
The home has over 3500 sq ft heated and cooled space and over 1000 sq ft of decks and screened porches. Prince George is new to our rental program so availability is still very good.
The homes is great for large groups with two full accommodations levels with 2 separate living areas, 2 fully equipped kitchens, 2 full size washer and dryers and 2 separate screened porches. The home is handicap accessible on the lower level. For smaller groups, the lower level or upper level can be locked off, providing a more economical option.
The upper level has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths and superb bay views from the open living room/kitchen/dining room. There is direct access to the huge screened porch and those beautiful bay views from 2 of the 3 bedrooms. There is a large entertainer’s kitchen with Corian counters, breakfast bar with 6 bar stools and loads of well stocked cupboards. The large laundry room is conveniently situated between the master bath and kitchen. The spacious living area is open to the beautiful bay views. The large dining table accommodates 10 when you want to have that large family gathering inside. There is another smaller bay front table great for casual meals or playing a game while you watch the bay life.
The spacious master bedroom has a king sized bed, direct walkout to the huge screened porch, a large bathroom with separate his and hers vanities, separate shower and large whirlpool tub. The other bay front upper level bedroom has a king sized bed and access to the second bath with shower. The third bedroom has a trundle bed and bunk beds, providing accommodations for 8 on the upper level.
Four sliding doors lead you to the 60 foot, extensive screen porch. Overhead, there are 3 ceiling fans and lots of room for that large group gathering or to find a quiet corner to read a book. Enjoy peaceful days and evenings in that oasis with access to the open deck for preparing your dinner on the gas grill, getting some sunshine or star gazing. Stairs from the deck take you to the walkway to the dock. You can rent kayaks nearby and leave them at your own dock so that you can enjoy the pristine waters of St Joseph Bay.
The lower level has a separate entrance, living room, fully stocked kitchen, 2 private bedrooms and 1 bath. There is a walkout to another private screened porch and access to the dock and the bay. One of the bedrooms has a queen sized bed and the other has twin beds. A queen sized sleeper sofa in the living room provides total accommodations for 6 on the lower level. This level is handicap accessible as is the dock. In lower season, the lower level can be rented on its own.
The large circular drive makes it easy for you to drive your boat trailer and other vehicles, with plenty of room for up to 6 vehicles in the under-house covered parking and additional parking for boats and RVs.
The home is less than one-half mile to St. Joseph Peninsula State Park where you can launch your boat, bike, hike, fish or bird watch. Beach access is less than one-third mile away. There is a place to park your car and unload your beach toys within fifty yards of the beach. It is normal for people to leave their tents and chairs on the beach. The home is on a quiet residential street at the end of the cul-de-sac and is very close to the bike path which will take you into the state park.
The home is well equipped with 2 air conditioning units, high speed wireless internet access, unlimited long distance to U.S. and Canada, voice mail and lots of TV/DVD/VCRs. There is a movie and games library available. The home has charcoal grill available, 2 fridges, 2 dishwashers, 2 full laundry facilities.
Cape San Blas was rated number 1 beach in the US by Dr Beach. K-9 Magazine rated Cape San Blas as #1 pet friendly beach. Cape San Blas is located on a beautiful peninsula about 18 miles long, with 9 miles of State Park at the tip. With the gulf and gorgeous beaches on one side and pristine St. Joseph Bay less than a mile away at the widest point on the other.
If you are there in the summer, you must try scalloping from the dock during scallop season in St. Joseph Bay, renowned for its delicious bay scallops. The water from St. Joseph Bay is clear and people love to snorkel and look at the bay life and collect scallops. There is nothing more succulent than fresh St Joseph Bay scallops sautéed in butter and garlic.
