Wake up to panoramic Intracoastal Waterway views, unwind with spectacular sunsets and experience the best of coastal living at 174 Windy Point. Nestled beneath majestic live oaks, this private waterfront retreat offers the perfect combination of breathtaking scenery, modern updates and exceptional versatility. Natural light pours into the open-concept living spaces, where luxury vinyl plank flooring, beautifully refinished hardwoods and Andersen sliding glass doors frame incredible water views from nearly every angle. The thoughtfully updated kitchen is designed for gathering and features custom wood countertops, a custom range hood, open shelving and a spacious triple-door pantry. The main level offers two guest bedrooms and a beautifully renovated full bathroom.
