The widest front footage of any residential real estate on the entire Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay in one of the two best areas of the entire Bay. Unbelievable total of 428 front feet on 7.98 acres of the most prime Bayfront around. Don't be fooled thinking that all Eastern Shore Bayfront is the same. The two most most desirable areas on the Eastern Shore are this 1 mile stretch of Bay in Montrose and the 1 mile south of the Grand Hotel. Both of these areas are south of a major point. If you are located just south of a major point, your water is deeper, you have NO marsh and the mosquitos that thrive in the marsh and NO blocking of the cool summer breeze. This property is just south of the major point where Winding Brook empties into the Bay. This property is NOT on a cliff, but is Bay level at the sandy shoreline, slowly rising to a hill of 30 feet at its maximum height.
This property or parts of it can be bought in several different formats: 1. The entire parcel for $5,000,000. 2. It is currently divided into three parcels and any one of three parcels could be purchased. Call for prices. 3. A plan for an 8 lot subdivion property with 4 large, deep lots on the Bay and 4 more lots on the Hill with Bay view is underway. Call for prices.
The highest and best use of this property would be a wonderfully private, buffered-from-the-neighbors fabulous home and infinity pool on the hill, overlooking the vast rolling lawn and endless Bay vista below. The house on the northernmost parcel was designed by noted Mobile architect, Cooper Van Antwerp. It has Old Mobile brick and antique tongue and groove paneling--materials saved from the demolition of the old Julius T. Wright School for Girls-- with 14 foot vaulted ceilings and post and beam construction. Would make a fantastic guest house to augment your estate home.
We will be happy to meet with you and show you the lot lines and discuss projected prices for the lots. And last but not least, this property is in the highly acclaimed Fairhope School District.
