$569,000 - 5411 Japonica Ave, Pensacola

Waterfront, boat-ready, and packed with possibilities! Set on approximately 0.70 acres along a protected canal just 100 yards from Bayou Garcon, this unique property offers waterfront living with convenient access toward Pensacola Pass and the Gulf beyond. Keep your boat at the private dock with two slips, power and water, while a steel bulkhead protects the waterfront. The existing 864-square-foot, 1-bedroom cottage includes two bunks on the screened porch and offers options that are hard to find on waterfront property. Move in and enjoy it as-is, use it as a weekend getaway, explore rental possibilities, or live comfortably on-site while planning and building your future waterfront home. Bring the RV too! A 10x50 gravel RV site features full hookups including 30/50-amp power, water and sewer. An additional workshop with power provides space for an office, storage, projects or hobbies. A HUGE benefit is the property's CITY SEWER connection. Both the cottage and RV site are already connected through the property's private sewer system with grinder pump and lift station, with the system designed to accommodate the future home as well. Recent cottage improvements include a new roof, fresh interior paint, new washer/dryer and tankless electric water heater. Outside is where this property shines. Relax beneath the covered waterfront pergola and watch the sunset, launch a kayak, or step onto your dock and head out by boat. With approximately 0.70 acres, there's room to envision your new home while maintaining a generous side yard with space for a pool and parking for boats and recreational toys. Enjoy a private feel with wooded surroundings across the road while being approximately 1/2 mile from Publix and CVS and just minutes from Gulf beaches. With waterfront acreage, an adorable cottage, workshop, two boat slips, RV site, city sewer infrastructure and room for your future home, this is not your typical waterfront property.
