Wide canal, No bridges, Perfect sailboat location, and Immediate direct access to Intracoastal Waterway. The use of the Ferry system has created the ideal "gated community" and an environment protecting Nature at it's Finest! The island has plenty of beautiful uncrowded beach access locations where islanders gather at sunset to observe the vibrant colors of painted skies. Numerous large builders work on the island and do everything from new construction to remodeling. There is discussion about county sewers being installed in the future. You will AVOID the future sewer assessments when you purchase this property because Lemon Bay Lane is the only street on Palm Island that currently has a county sewer line installed. There will be only the typical county sewer hook-up charge when you build. That charge is currently $5000. Preferred access to the island is with a knowledgeable island realtor, or you may access the island by bicycle after paying a $10 Ferry fee (round trip) or a $55 vehicle fee (round trip). You will be enchanted by the last pristine barrier island on the Gulf coast with crystal clear waters, beautiful bays, and seven miles of silky sand beaches.
