Rare waterfront homesite on Mallet Bayou offering approximately 0.74 acres and more than 90 feet of bay frontage. Framed by mature oaks and pines, the property provides a private, natural setting with direct water access and plenty of room to create a custom residence. Conveniently located just minutes from U.S. Highway 331 and a county park with a public boat ramp, the property combines peaceful waterfront living with easy access to everyday conveniences. Opportunities to secure a homesite with this amount of frontage and this setting are increasingly limited.

Set on a rare 6.8-acre point along Lagrange Bayou, this offering is unlike anything else on the market in Freeport -- an unmatched combination of 725 feet of waterfront, two single-family homes, a versatile third structure, and three private docks, all positioned to capture the best sunset views on the water. Perched on the point, this property is oriented to soak in panoramic water views across the bayou and into Choctawhatchee Bay, with front-row seats to some of the most spectacular sunsets in the area. Wildlife is part of everyday life here -- herons wading the shallows, dolphins gliding past the docks, and eagles, osprey, and deer moving through the property's wooded acreage. It's the kind of natural beauty and privacy that simply isn't replicated on parcels of this scale so close to the water. The Main residence offers a single-level, split-plan layout with 3 bedrooms, cathedral ceilings, and a wall of windows framing the water and sunset views. Finishes throughout reflect no expense spared: custom walnut cabinetry, quartzite countertops, hardwood flooring, and hurricane-rated doors and windows. The covered cumaru deck on the south side is the perfect perch for dining or relaxing, with sweeping bayou and bay views and steady breezes off the water year round. A true multi-family or income-generating asset, the second home features 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, a large galley kitchen with hickory cabinets and natural stone countertops, and a two-story layout that feels like its own private retreat. Upstairs offers a bedroom suite with en-suite bath and a library; downstairs opens to panoramic water views and a fireplace for cooler months. Covered parking is also located here. A third structure currently used as a workshop, creates a bonus or flexible space including a sleeping loft and full bathroom -- ready to become an additional guest suite, private office, or personal getaway. Beyond the seawall, three private docks with open boathouses, boat lifts, and catwalks are already in place. Just bring your boat or jet skis. With this much wooded acreage, waterfront, and privacy rarely -- if ever -- available together in Freeport, the next owner has the rare chance to preserve this sanctuary as-is, add personal structures, or explore development potential on one of the most significant homesites the area has ever seen.

There are two kinds of waterfront: the kind you look at, and the kind you live on. This is emphatically the second. Roughly 130 feet of the property's southern edge is Choctawhatchee Bay; open, deep water, facing south, which means sun on the water from morning to evening and both the sunrise and the sunset playing out across the bay rather than behind a neighbor's roofline. A 120-foot dock runs out to a boat lift over water deep enough to actually use it. No standing around waiting on the tide before you can go fishing. There's a fish-cleaning station and, this is not a typo, a shower, so you can catch dinner, clean it, and rinse off the evidence without ever setting foot on dry land. A vinyl seawall and rip rap hold the shoreline in place, the deeply unromantic infrastructure that keeps waterfront homes from quietly becoming underwater ones. The home itself is a solid all-brick ranch, aged gracefully and updated where it counts, with vaulted ceilings, a brick fireplace, and a family room pointed directly at the water with massive windows on 3 sides for a most epic view. 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/workshop. A few things that matter more than they sound: no HOA, so no one will ever mail you a letter about your mailbox. Short-term rentals are permitted, making this a genuine income-producing property and not just a lovely place to stand. The seller is open to owner financing, which should catch your attention and is worth slowing down for. Instead of accepting whatever rate the bank is feeling that week, the terms here can be worked out directly: price, interest rate, down payment, and timeline all negotiable, subject to the seller's approval. For the right buyer, that can mean a faster close, fewer hoops, and a monthly number that actually pencils out. 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. Peace and quiet come standard. The only real risk is forgetting what day it is.
