Description

Come experience tranquil living in Bay Forest Estates, one of Foley’s most desirable communities. Located just minutes from the 500-acre Graham Creek Nature preserve that offers scenic trails, disc golf courses, picnic areas, swings, and birdwatching areas. You’re also sure to see deer and other wildlife roaming the neighborhood. When you’re not enjoying nature, you can conveniently take your boat down to the community boat launch and head out for a day on the water. Embark on adventures to the Wharf, Pirate's Cove, or Robinson Island, all just a short boat ride away. Nestled upon a generous lot, this residence is surrounded by the beauty of mature trees. Inside you will be welcomed by the seamless flow of the large open living room and formal dining room, creating a welcoming space for entertaining guests or enjoying quality time with family. Prepare your favorite meals in the heart of the home, where a beautiful kitchen awaits. Boasting stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, this kitchen offers space and functionality. The master suite features 2 walk in closets, a jetted soaking tub, and separate shower. You can also conveniently access the pool area from your bedroom. All the other bedrooms are generously sized, and the bathrooms are equipped with custom vanities. Step out back and prepare to relax within your own private oasis equipped with a lanai and inground saltwater pool! The pool has a heating/cooling system so you can use it year-round. Other upgrades include a heated/cooled garage with insulated garage door, 2 HVAC units replaced in 2020, a gutter system and outdoor shower. If you're looking for comfort, convenience, and a peaceful setting this is the perfect opportunity for you to have all of that and more!

    "Lived here my whole life and I love it it's close to a lot of different attractions, and still maintains country in certain parts. Crime rate is not outrageous Beaches close by Pensacola, New Orleans, mobile, Biloxi, , go shores, and Panama City Beach are within 100 miles maybe or so. I accept this community to raise my family in "
