About this home
This spacious waterfront home enjoys a stunning location right on a deep-water mooring with two boat lifts and easy access to the harbor and gulf. Even when you’re not out on the water, the private pool and hot tub provide canal views while the party-sized observation deck is the ultimate place to view seasonal fireworks and breathtaking sunsets. Inside, the home continues to maximize those waterfront views with an open concept living space and chef’s kitchen finished to a high standard of luxury. Gleaming tile floors flow through each beautifully furnished space while the cathedral ceiling provides a sense of airy spaciousness. The corner kitchen is fully equipped for keen chefs with a full range of newer stainless steel appliances. Defined by an angled bar with seating for family and friends, it’s a natural gathering place for socializing or enjoying cool drinks and tasty snacks.
As well as a formal dining area, the great room has a large sitting area for nights in watching TV or socializing with family and friends. With doors opening directly onto the pool terrace, it’s the perfect space for parties and entertaining. Four beds provide ample space for extended families with a built-in bunk room that comfortably sleeps six in two twin-over-full beds. The second-floor master bedroom has sweeping views through a wall of windows. It also boasts direct access to the second-floor deck — a great place to wander outside with a cup of coffee before the bustle of the day begins. Two full bathrooms include a master ensuite with a twin vanity and a huge walk-in shower. Protected by a state-of-the-art security system, this beach house retreat is surrounded by a generous landscaped yard with shady palm trees.
A circular paved driveway offers parking for multiple vehicles while the garage provides additional storage for water toys, kayaks, bicycles and beach chairs. Located on Holiday Isle, this gorgeous home is a short stroll from public access to the beautiful white sand at aptly named Pelican Beach. Big Kahuna’s Water Park is a short drive away, along with waterfront dining and shopping at colorful HarborWalk Village. Golf courses, fishing charters and shopping at Destin Commons are all available nearby, making this a highly desirable area for luxury vacation rentals when not in use by the owner.
