A dynamic waterfront estate on Similk Bay offering two fully independent living residences joined by a light-filled atrium, creating genuine flexibility for multigenerational living, hosting friends and loved ones, or operating as an income-generating retreat. With an administrative use permit, the opportunity here extends well beyond the lifestyle. The main residence offers three bedrooms and generous living spaces oriented toward the water, where south-facing views stretch across the bay toward the Kukutali Preserve. There is also a flex space used by the current owner to host art classes which speaks to the kind of inspiration this setting quietly produces. The second residence mirrors the quality and views of the first with two bedrooms, two living rooms, and its own fully equipped kitchen. At 6,098 square feet across both residences, the scale supports every version of how this property can be lived in. What truly sets this estate apart is the waterfront and the access to it. Tideland rights give you private beach access where you could have your own hobby oyster farm, crab in the bay, or kayak across the characteristically calm water to Kiket Island and the Kukutali Preserve. The kind of coastal lifestyle most people only visit, and very few waterfront properties can actually offer. Lush grounds with mature gardens, room to host, and genuine peace and quiet complete a setting that has inspired owners, artists, and everyone lucky enough to visit.
