Enter through the front door to a majestic two story foyer with custom tile inlay flooring and you can already see the water through a set of french doors. Then look up to the second floor library and spiral stairs leading to the widows walk. The third floor widows walk provides an unobstructed 360 degree view of the creek, the wetlands and surrounding community.

From the large open great room area, sip morning coffee as you enjoy the diverse species of waterfowl and their seasonal rhythms year after year.

From this wonderful space, immerse yourself in the surrounding views and activities that become artwork for the home, as well as the colors and glow of every sunrise and sunset that you can actually feel.
