About this home
Island Retreat with Income Potential on a Full Acre! Tucked away on a private 1-acre agricultural lot in Saint James City, this two-story home offers a great mix of peaceful country living and proven rental flexibility. The upstairs features an open living layout with lots of natural light, white kitchen cabinets, butcher-block countertops, and a full bathroom with a soaking tub. Outside, the property features a durable metal roof and a huge yard with no HOA restrictions, giving you plenty of room to build a pool, put up a pole barn, or park your boats, trailers, and RVs. What really makes this property stand out is the enclosed downstairs space, which has a successful history as an Airbnb rental. This self-contained studio is completely separate and comes ready to go with its own kitchen setup, navy cabinets, and a custom bathroom with a glass walk-in shower. Outdoors, there is a large wooden deck and a fire pit area that's perfect for entertaining. Whether you want to live upstairs and let the downstairs pay your mortgage, use it for family, or add it to your rental portfolio, this Pine Island property offers a ton of options.
