Located right on the water, this charming house offers the quintessential South Florida experience. For the fishing enthusiast, the highlight is the private dock—nestled on one of the few flow-through canals in Marathon. Bring your own boat and enjoy immediate access to the gulf or the sea. After a day on the water, rinse off at the outdoor shower, then roast your catch-of-the-day on the gas grill. The private patio offers a front-row view of the water—perfect for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine.
The updated kitchen has a full suite of appliances for easy cooking and cleanup. The dining area overlooks the water, so you can enjoy all your meals with a stunning view. Kick back in the beach-themed living room, then retire to the main bedroom, which has a TV, an en-suite bathroom with a standalone shower, and direct access to the back patio. Across the house are the remaining bedrooms, two of which are nearly identical. The fourth bedroom serves as a home office and has a futon, a desk, and a three-in-one printer for all your work-from-home needs. The guest bathroom has a standalone shower.
