Perfectly positioned directly on the west end of Dolphin Waterway in Bird Key, this immaculately maintained four-bedroom home flourishes in lovely updates and offers the avid yachtsmen multiple enviable boating options.

Formal dining is steps from the living room, making entertaining a breeze. The granite kitchen overlooking the family room is filled with natural light from the wall of sliders that lead out to the pavered pool deck.
