If you have been looking for a special opportunity to build your next home, here it is! This is one of the best homesites available in the gated river front community of River Sea Plantation. This pie shaped site is located at the end of a quiet street backing to woods and the marsh. This site does have riparian rights. If you wanted to build you own private dock in the future, you would secure a CAMA permit and be allowed to do so. There are no future surprises here as you already have nice nice custom homes built on either side of you and a green space island across the street. There are some mature trees on the property that will be able to stay, providing an established landscape look when your home is complete. You can use any builder that you want (with HOA approval) and there is no time frame to start construction. County water & sewer are available so you will not have to worry about the maintenance of a septic tank. Residents in River Sea enjoy beautiful amenities including a clubhouse with a fitness center, indoor and outdoor pools, and a meeting area. The tennis and pickleball courts were just resurfaced. There are also miles of elevated boardwalks throughout the community and perhaps the best amenity is the community boat ramp and kayak launch on the Lockwood Folly River.
