About This Home

Welcome to paradise! Expansive custom ranch home with a walk-out lower level, situated atop the dunes with views of the Gulf framed by palms from both levels. Immediately upon entering the home, you are welcomed by water views across the living and dining areas. This home's design makes it perfect for entertaining, or multigenerational living, with the space and separation for privacy, and a main floor office for working at home. It has been beautifully remodeled and decorated with luxurious executive fit and finish throughout, including refinished hardwood floors in the living/dining area, new tasteful furniture and decor; high-end new fixtures, fans and lighting; new plantation shutters; new appliances/TV's throughout; security cameras; and a linear fireplace to name a few. The spacious chef's kitchen features new appliances and open concept, perfect for entertaining. The lower level boasts a kitchenette with ice maker, and a large rec/media room in addition to 3 bedrooms. Outdoors, the owners have created a tropical oasis perfect for hosting outdoor gatherings on multiple decks with new all-weather furniture groupings, a private pool, new firepit, rec area, multiple new grills, manicured landscape, and 200sf of indoor storage for bikes, beach gear and more. There is also a gated entrance in the back where you can pull your golf cart (included) behind the privacy fence. The high dunes and walkout lower level, eliminate the typical beach house stilts and elevator...walk in from either level! Deemed by their contractor as "the fortress in the sand" this home had no damage during hurricane Sally. The owners have used the home primarily for personal use, with light rentals. However, this would make a great vacation home or short term rental. Rental projections are $175-220k annually. The home has deeded beach access, and is being sold completely turn-key: FULLY FURNISHED, with golf cart, bikes and beach gear. A must see!
