Less than 10 miles from West Bay in Panama City Beach and just 20 miles to the white sand beaches of Panama City Beach FL. This 37 acres tract of land sits along 1300 ft of creek frontage on Otter Creek. This Creek flows west and meets East River just 1/3 of a mile away along the creek. Then East River flows west for 1.8 miles and empties into Choctawhatachee River and then Choctawhatachee River flows 7 miles dumps into Choctawhatachee Bay which is the bay that dumps into the Gulf of Mexico in Destin FL. In reality you could launch a boat from your back yard and actually get to Crab Island in Destin FL. Crab Island is one of Destin’s top summertime destinations. It has been photographed and aired on national networks and shows such as HGTV and Good Morning America, published in various travel magazines, and featured in publications across the globe. Land: The 37 acres are secluded and game rich from Deer to Turkey, Squirrels, Rabbits, Hogs and plenty of fishing. As I was touring this property and trolling the creek, I saw a huge number of fish hitting top water bugs, it truly was amazing to see. This Creek would give immense pleasure in catching a ton of fish on these hot summer evenings. The creek itself is just beautiful and serene, with a Florida charm that invites you to enjoy the great creek and its surroundings. The owner has killed many deer and hogs in this place as well over the years. If you want to hunt and fish and grow your own food, then this place is for you. It is very private, within a small community off the beaten path of HWY 79. Potential Opportunity Not guaranteed but the new owner can put in a path to the creek for his or her very own boat access point. This will need to be approved by Bay County and due diligence from the buyer. Location. Just 10 miles from a very fast growing area of West Bay in North Bay County and only 15 miles away from NW Florida International Airport. This property is sure to please and keep you centrally located to beaches, airports, community centers and entertainment. Buildings: The owner has invested over 100K in 4 different structures on the property. There are three carport type barns a 24x60, a 36x36, and a 24x48. All three of these buildings are extremely well built with 8x8 posts. The main house "Base Camp" is a 36x32 and was originally planned to have 3 bedrooms, a kitchen, living room, a bathhouse and fireplace, for hunters and fisherman, the owners were building this to be a hunting and fishing getaway. However, the new owner can create whatever masterpiece they like. Conclusion: If you want privacy, if you want hunting and fishing, if you want to be minutes to the beach or a few miles by boat to Destin from your own backyard, and if you want to build your dream home and feel like you are a million miles away, then this could be the property for you!
