About this home
Welcome to 142 Indian Bayou Drive, a beautifully upgraded 4-bedroom, 4-bath waterfront home nestled in one of Destin's most desirable communities. Positioned along a deep-water bayou with direct access to the Choctawhatchee Bay, this residence offers a rare combination of elegance, privacy, and lifestyle—perfect for boating, entertaining, or simply enjoying the serenity of coastal living.
The home features over 3,600 square feet of well-designed living space with an open layout ideal for gatherings. The main-level primary suite overlooks the water, while expansive living and dining areas flow seamlessly to a heated pool and a lush backyard framed by water views. A brand-new brick paver driveway, valued at $60,000, creates a grand entrance and enhances the home's curb appeal. Additional upgrades include a whole-house Generac generator, a paid-in-full solar panel system for energy efficiency, a new lawn pump, and fresh zoysia grass throughout the front and back yards.
A dedicated theater room offers a versatile space for entertainment or could easily be converted back to a bedroom. It also includes a unique play loft above. The mini refrigerator, stereo system, and furniture in the theater room are negotiable.
Boating enthusiasts will appreciate the home's well-equipped waterfront setup, featuring two boat lifts. The main slip includes a 25,000-pound lift designed to accommodate up to a 15 x 40 boat. The second lift is rated for 12,000 pounds and can support a vessel up to 13 x 27. The bottom of the included 2013 Sea Ray 370 Venture was professionally painted two years ago, and the boat is available for purchase with the home at an additional $175,000 (valued at $225,000). The property also includes one jet ski lift and two drive-on jet ski docks. Two 2023 Jet Skisa Surf Pro and a Fishing Proare negotiable with an acceptable offer.
