About this House

Attention, Boaters & Waterfront Lovers! 8 Gotham Avenue is an incredible opportunity for anyone dreaming of waterfront living at an attractive price. This fully detached home offers sunlight, space, outdoor entertaining, and direct access to the water - ideal for boating, fishing, jet skiing, or relaxing. As you enter, you'll notice the abundance of natural light streaming through the large windows in the living and dining room. Beautiful hardwood floors add a classic touch. The spacious eat-in kitchen offers plenty of room for a large dining table, ideal for entertaining family and friends. A large glass sliding door fills the kitchen with even more natural light and leads directly to the outdoor deck. Upstairs, you'll find a full bathroom and two generously sized bedrooms, both featuring hardwood floors, large windows, and plenty of closet space. The oversized primary bedroom offers tremendous flexibility and could easily be converted into two separate bedrooms if desired. The basement provides even more possibilities, with a private side entrance and setup for a full bathroom. With a few finishing touches, this space can become an excellent recreation room, guest area, home office, or additional living space. But the real magic begins outside. Stroll through the kitchen onto the spacious deck and take in the peaceful waterfront setting. There's plenty of room for outdoor dining, entertaining, relaxing, and firing up the BBQ. The gangplank and deck are in phenomenal condition, while the bulkhead has been reinforced with a steel plate, providing impressive strength and support. Bring your boat, jet skis, fishing gear, and water toys and enjoy waterfront living! Additional highlights include a roof approximately 15 years young and a boiler approximately 12 years old. Whether you're an avid boater, lover of the outdoors, or simply someone who finds peace watching the water flow by, 8 Gotham Avenue is a waterfront gem worth viewing. Call today for a private tour.
