3 SISTER HOUSES:
"STRAND CASTLE", THE GREEN HOUSE on Strand CT is gulf-front. There is presently no house between it & the water. That could change eventually, should someone decide to build on the lot between us and the water, but even then, it would retain a partial Gulf view and is only a few hundred feet from the Gulf waters.
"KOWABUNGA", THE PEACH HOUSE on Shell Court, is 2nd tier, directly on the beach w/no streets to cross, and direct Gulf views (see photos).
The house is angled towards the Gulf for direct views and direct vacant beach area for your enjoyment. The house that is positioned technically in front of it is not that visible as our house is angled away from it.
"SURF'S UP", THE RASBERRY HOUSE on Bienville BLVD, is directly across the street from the Gulf w/great Gulf & Sound views. Beach walk-over access is close-by, and you have deeded access to all Gulf beach areas, not just by walk-over.
HOUSE FEATURES:
WIFI ! Game Room on 2nd floor, sleeper sofa, leading out to Gulf-view balcony & up to the private roof-top deck w/lounge chairs (deck railing is solid 36" high for totally private sunning) and panoramic views of the Island.
Strand and Shell gameroom has LCD TV,bar table, mini-fridge, billiards/Air hockey combo and foose-ball.
ISLAND INFORMATION:
Dauphin Island is very laid back & non-commercialized, but has shops, a grocery store, bakery,& several restaurants ranging from pizza, ice cream and burgers, to great seafood and steaks. ISLAND IS EASILY ACCESSIBLE BY BRIDGE. Gulf Shores/Fort Morgan is only a few miles away & is accessible by auto ferry (makes a great day trip).
For attractions, visit the Sea Lab, historic Fort Gaines, play a round of golf at the Isle Dauphine gulf-front course, view birds and wildlife & explore secluded beaches at the Audubon Sanctuary, fish on the beach or at the long gulf-front fishing pier, charter a boat for sightseeing or deep-sea fishing, swim, bike, walk, collect shells, or JUST PLAIN RELAX!
