SunChaser - Best of Both Worlds! Waterfront on MS Sound!

SunChaser is the best of both worlds: A short walk to the Gulf of Mexico Beach and the Mississippi Sound right in front of the house! And even better….the Views are Incredible. There are no houses between you and the Mississippi Sound. A short bulkhead protects the canal, the dock and your boat! The combination of an unobstructed view and protected water for your boat and swimming is rare on the island! There is also a beach just across the canal on the Sound for your enjoyment.
The house is 1300 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The open floor plan allows you to watch all the action from the den as well as the kitchen. There are lots of windows bringing in natural light. The master bedroom has a queen bed. The 2nd bedroom also has a queen bed and the 3rd bedroom has a full. The den has a sleeper sofa. One TV is located in main room and can be seen from the kitchen. Another small TV is provided in a bedroom. A DVD player is also available.
The hammock under the house is nice for afternoon naps. There are 2 kayaks for exploring the canals, bays and the Mississippi Sound. The dock has a swim ladder for easy access to lounge and play in the water. An outside shower is there for you to rinse(or bathe) when you come out of the water and get home from the beach. The sandy yard with a wooden boardwalk is ideal for kids to play with their beach toys and sunbathers to soak in the sun. Other amenities include a charcoal grill, free wifi, national channels NBC, CBS, ABC and a multitude of others. Hulu, Disney+ and ESPN+ are also available. There is a large pantry for all your groceries.
For the FISHERMAN: There is enough waterfront to dock two boats. The canal is deep enough for even the larger boats to access. The house is only minutes from the nearest boat ramp and Dauphin Island Marina. A quick run to the West will place you near Katrina Cut and the West uninhabited end of Dauphin Island. A quick run to the East will place you in Mobile Bay/Gulf of Mexico. There is a large, covered fish cleaning station so that you don’t bake in the sun while cleaning your catch for the day.
The 12 X 30 foot deck extends from the main room. A picnic table is provided for outdoor eating. The deck is close enough to the water so you can keep an eye on your swimmers. There is a gate on the deck stairs to ensure little ones don’t make a fast break for the steps and the water. The sunsets on Dauphin Island are amazing and the view from SunChaser is unobstructed beauty! Sit high in the queen chairs, enjoy your favorite beverage and soak in the view.
The Mississippi Sound is a wonderful place, perfect for kayaking, fishing from the dock, watching dolphins play and watching pelicans dive for fish. The Gulf-side beach is less than 3 blocks. The gulf beach near our house is only available to residents so there is always plenty of space for everyone. At night, take the kids, flashlights, nets and buckets and “hunt” for sand crabs or go “floundering” in the Sound for blue crabs and flounder right in front of your house.
Dauphin Island is packed with activities. Visit the Dauphin Island Sea Lab Estuarium and observe up-close a wide variety of live sea creatures.
