1409 Olive/1408 Osprey / 2 Lots Included • Zoned for 1–4 Residential Units * A rare offering features two adjoining lots, including an elevated dune-top homesite with panoramic Gulf views. This unique property includes a street-level lot providing access, parking, and building flexibility, plus an elevated dune-top lot that rises to a base elevation of approximately 44 feet. The result is an extraordinary building site with remarkable peace, privacy, and an elevated setting unlike almost anything else on Dauphin Island. Unlike most Gulf Coast properties, the value here is not simply the water view and direct beach access across POA greenspace. It is the combination of elevation, quiet, and privacy. From a future porch nearly 50 feet above sea level, you will enjoy sweeping views of the Gulf while feeling completely removed from the crowds and neighboring homes below. Once you are on the dune, it feels as though you have the entire coastline to yourself. Properties like this are exceptionally rare. There are only a handful of homesites on Dauphin Island positioned high atop the natural dune system, and opportunities to build one are Located on the desirable east end of the island, the property enjoys convenient access to the public beach, marinas, restaurants, and island attractions, while still offering the peace, elevation, and privacy that make this homesite so unique. The property is zoned for one to four residential units, creating flexibility for a primary residence, second home, family compound, or investment property. Whether your vision is a private coastal retreat or a legacy property for future generations, this homesite provides a setting that simply cannot be recreated. Golf carts are a common way to explore the island, whether you are heading to the beach, visiting local restaurants and shops, or riding over to historic Fort Gaines. The nearby Audubon Bird Sanctuary draws bird enthusiasts from around the world and adds to the peaceful character of the island with its maritime forests, walking trails, and coastal habitats. Fishing is also a way of life here. Anglers come to Dauphin Island for some of the best fishing along the northern Gulf Coast. From inshore fishing and kayaking to offshore adventures in the Gulf, the island has long been known as a favorite destination for serious fishermen as well as families casting a line for the first time. With quick access to deep Gulf waters, Dauphin Island remains one of the Gulf Coast's premier boating and fishing destinations. Another reason buyers discover Dauphin Island is how surprisingly easy it is to reach. The island is about 40 minutes south of Interstate 10 and Interstate 65, and once you leave the interstate, the drive to the island is direct and uncomplicated. Dauphin Island is centrally located on the northern Gulf Coast, making it a comfortable drive for visitors and second-home owners from many parts of the country. Many properties offer Gulf views. Very few offer Gulf views, extraordinary elevation, privacy, and the feeling that you have the coastline almost entirely to yourself. Information provided is deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
