The dock you've been waiting for

Live on the water.
Not just near it.

Roughly 130 feet of south-facing Choctawhatchee Bay — and a 120-foot dock to prove it.

Sun on the water all day

Some homes sell a lifestyle you'll never quite get around to. This is a place measured in fish caught, miles cruised, and sunsets that ask nothing of you but to sit still and watch.

Life on the water

Not staged. Just Tuesdays here.

These aren't listing photos — they're snapshots the current owners took from this dock. Redfish and speckled trout that never saw a boat, and the kind of evenings that show up for free. This is what the place actually is when no one's trying to sell it.

The waterfront

There are two kinds of waterfront. This is the kind you live on.

Roughly 130 feet of the property's southern edge is open Choctawhatchee Bay, facing due south. That orientation is the whole game: the sun tracks across the water all day long, so the view is lit from morning to evening rather than staring into a neighbor's roofline.

01

More than enough water for the boat

The lift sits over water with more than enough depth for the boats it’s built to hold — no standing around waiting on the tide before you can go fishing.

02

Fish-cleaning station & dockside shower

Catch dinner, clean it, and rinse off the evidence without ever setting foot on dry land. Yes — a shower, on the dock.

03

Sundeck at the end of the run

A covered platform out over the bay — the best seat on the property for weather coming across the water.

04

Seawall & rip rap

A vinyl seawall and rip rap hold the shoreline in place — the unromantic infrastructure that keeps waterfront homes from quietly becoming underwater ones.

05

Light on the water, all day

A due-south exposure means the sun crosses the bay in front of you from morning to evening, and through the cooler months it slips toward the water at both ends of the day.

06

Dolphins in the bay

Choctawhatchee Bay's dolphins work this stretch of water. Some mornings the show simply comes to you.

07

Detached garage, workshop & carport

A detached 2-car garage, a separate storage building and workshop, plus a carport — room for every boat, trailer, and toy the water invites.

08

Nearly an acre, level

0.9 of an acre of usable, level ground — rare on the water, with room to build, add, or simply spread out.

09

Freeport — and climbing

One of the Emerald Coast's fastest-growing communities, minutes from 30A and the bay's best water — a location moving in the right direction.

10

The upside is the part you control

Waterfront is the fixed asset — nobody is making more of it, and the dock and seawall are already built and permitted. The house is the variable, which means every dollar you put into it lands on a lot that already carries the value. And with short term rentals allowed, it can earn while you improve it.

The view, from inside

The house was built to look at one thing.

A family room pointed directly at the bay, wrapped in massive windows on three sides. When the water is the reason you're here, the best room in the house is the one that never lets you forget it.

Owner financing available

Skip the bank. Deal directly.

The seller is open to owner financing. That means the structure of this purchase isn't dictated by whatever rate a bank is quoting this week — it gets worked out directly, between two people, on terms that fit the deal.

01Favorable terms are on the table — the seller will consider any serious offer backed by considerable cash, subject to approval.
02For the right buyer: a faster close, fewer hoops, and a monthly number that actually pencils out.
03Short term rentals are allowed — a genuine income-producing property, not just a lovely place to stand.

Is it priced right?

Every comparable sale says yes.

Five waterfront sales in Freeport over the last twelve months, adjusted side by side. The data supports $1,050,000 to $1,125,000. It's offered at $1,000,000 — and it carries the lowest price per waterfront foot of any comparable property with a private dock and lift.

The land & the house

Nearly an acre, level, and honest about what it is.

Wide view of the level 0.9-acre lot under mature oaks, with the brick ranch home and detached garage

The home is a solid all-brick ranch — aged gracefully and updated where it counts, with vaulted ceilings and a brick fireplace. It won't win a magazine cover, and it doesn't need to: it's clean, comfortable, and move-in ready, on a lot that's the real prize.

For everything that refuses to live indoors — boats, kayaks, and the water toys that multiply once you live somewhere like this — there's a carport, a detached 2-car garage, and a separate storage building and workshop.

What it costs to own

The annual numbers, up front.

Waterfront carries insurance. Rather than let you find that out later, here it is now — alongside the tax and HOA lines that quietly favor this property.

Homeowners insurance~$4,800 / yr
Flood insurance~$3,000 / yr
Property taxes (2025)$800.90
HOA duesNone
Special assessmentsNone

Insurance figures are current-policy estimates and will vary by carrier, coverage and deductible. Property taxes reflect the current owner's assessment and will be reassessed on sale. Comparable properties in nearby subdivisions carry annual assessments plus tax bills several times higher.

Peace and quiet come standard here. The only real risk is forgetting what day it is.

A note for homeowners

A sign in the yard is not a marketing plan.

If you own a home and you've been reading this wondering what your own listing might look like — that's exactly the right question. The custom site, the domain, the photography, the objective pricing data: none of it is reserved for waterfront. It's the standard.

Your property doesn't just sit on a website waiting to be found. Advanced digital campaigns using geofencing, retargeting and behavioral tracking put it in front of qualified buyers in real time. Someone looks at a home in your neighborhood, the ads find them. Someone looks at your home, and your home follows them across the apps and sites they use next. Every prospect who shows interest and then goes quiet gets direct, personal follow-up, and targeted call campaigns make sure no lead goes unpursued.

01

A property, its own website

A dedicated domain and custom landing page built around one home's strengths — not a listing lost on page nine of a portal.

02

Media that sells

Professional stills, drone aerials, interactive floor plans, and video built for the way people actually watch.

03

Ads that follow the buyer

Geofencing, retargeting and behavioral tracking. Someone views a home in your neighborhood, the ads find them — then your home follows them across the sites they use next.

04

Data, not guesswork

Objective pricing evidence published alongside the listing — like the comp analysis built for this property. Buyers see the math.

05

One point of contact

You work with Todd — not a rotating cast. The strategist and the marketer are the same person, and he answers the phone.

06

No lock-in, no inflated fees

No long-term contracts and no bloated commission — plus creative structuring, like owner financing and rental positioning, that widens your buyer pool.

The media, from other listings

This is what your property would look like.

A full walkthrough and a vertical reel built for social, plus a sample of the photography — drone, twilight, interiors, and the shot that actually sells the place. Tap any video to play, or expand it full screen.

Commercial, too

The same standard, scaled up.

This isn't only a residential practice. Todd represents commercial property with the same custom-site, data-forward approach — investor and owner-user audiences, tenancy and income analysis, and the pricing evidence to back it. See a live example: a 10,000 SF medical office building in Crestview.

No pressure and no obligation — just a straight conversation about your property and what it could do on the market.

Real Estate Strategist

#toddrocks

Todd has spent two decades on the Emerald Coast and built his practice around a simple objection: most sellers pay a large commission for little more than a sign in the yard and an MLS entry. He works the opposite way — no long-term contracts, no inflated fees, and marketing driven by data rather than guesswork.

Over 65 five-star reviews later, the feedback is consistent: absolute transparency, communication at any hour, and an advisor who treats real estate like a discipline instead of a coin flip. He lives and works on this coast, and he answers his own phone.

This listing is his, start to finish — the strategy, the media, and the person on the other end of the call. Let's rock.
