The home has two bedrooms, a flex space on the top floor, and two bathrooms. There are two massive rooftop deck areas on either side of the house.

Inside, there are hardwood floors, brand new fixtures, and appliances, and it’s extremely spacious thanks to an open plan and a large foyer. The bedrooms are on the lower level so you can sleep close to the sounds of the water.

The home is moving to the marina in November 2021 and will be ready for move-in by Christmas.
