Public Remarks: Charming home and guest cottages on 1.2+ acres overlooking Pelican Bay in Cape Haze. The main house was built in 1961 as a vacation retreat for a member of the Vanderbilt family. It features Pecky Cypress paneling throughout the living areas, beamed ceilings in the living room and dining room, a wood-burning fireplace, a wet bar, an elevator and a master suite with porch overlooking the harbor. The spacious kitchen was completely redone in 2003 with granite counters and wood cabinets. A standing-seam metal roofing was installed in 2011. Three cottages each include living and bedroom space with private baths. The cottages offer wonderful privacy and easily adaptable space for offices, art studios, workshops, guest accommodations or in-law living space. Along Pelican Bay, the property features approximately 217 feet of seawalled waterfront with two expansive dock areas, pilings, and a 14K lb. covered lift. Gorgeous landscaping helps create the wonderful ambience of this waterfront estate. The circular drive is shaded by Live Oaks and Lignum Vitae trees. Flowering Plumeria border the entrance walk & Bougainvillea wind thru the pergolas covering the walkways to the cottages. Towering Royal Palms line the path from the main house to the docks & mature Coconut Palms sway along the waterfront. Cycads, palms, bamboo and a host of other plantings are artfully placed around the grounds. Two garage areas provide parking for up to 4 cars and boats.
