ORANGE BEACH, Ala. A new gated community with waterfront views will soon be under construction along the Intercoastal Waterway where the Long Bayou merges.
According to the builders, the 48-unit gated subdivision will span 36 acres of waterfront land with lots ranging from $700,000 to $1.2 million.
This community has been named Long Bayou Preserve.
According to a news release some of the amenities will include boat lifts, walking trails, a sporting lodge, and an infinity pool.
The community offers other amenities such as nearby shopping and is close to many popular locations in Orange Beach, like Margaritaville, The Wharf, OWA, and the Gulf Shores International Airport.
Home construction will begin in early 2027 following the completion of entry roads, utilities, and lot preparation.
The Cobb Development Company is the lead developer of the project.
