About this home
A rare opportunity on coveted Juniper Cove, this exceptional waterfront property is offered after 50 years of family ownership. Set on a large, level lot with mature plantings, the home enjoys sweeping water views, a saltwater infinity pool, and a private dock...walk from your backyard to your boat and head out for an afternoon on the water! The protected cove offers a beautiful backdrop of sea grasses, rock outcroppings, and views toward Bakers Island and the Gold Coast. Designed for single-level living, the 1st floor features generous living and dining rooms and a spacious primary suite overlooking the cove. The primary wing includes an en-suite bath, a large room ideal for a walk-in closet or dressing room, and a private deck. Upstairs are three bedrooms and two full baths. A separate two-bedroom apartment with private entrance is ideal for rental or Airbnb use. This is a rare find: a generously proportioned waterfront home paired with a private pool, dock, and large yard.
