About this home
Recently reimagined from the studs out, this gulf-front residence makes an immediate impression with three levels of south-facing deck space poised above the dunes and uninterrupted views stretching across the emerald water. Offered at an exceptional value for gulf-front ownership in the Destin and Miramar Beach market, the home pairs strong short-term rental performance with a setting that puts the beach quite literally at your doorstep. Paved parking for four vehicles provides easy arrival, while the first level is arranged for comfort and flexibility. Two gulf-front bedrooms open directly to the lower deck and beach path, creating an effortless connection to the shoreline. A media room with a wet bar and refrigerator adds a second living area for movie nights, game days or a private retreat for younger guests. The layout also includes a king bedroom, a bunk room and thoughtful family-friendly touches throughout, including a private dog cove for pets up to 25 pounds. On the second floor, walls of glass frame sweeping 180-degree gulf views from nearly every angle of the main living space. The family room and dining area open to an expansive balcony through three sets of French doors, setting the stage for sunset cocktails, morning coffee and long afternoons with the sound of the waves in the background. Just beyond, the open kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, granite countertops and a generous breakfast bar designed for casual gathering. A nearby half bath adds convenience to the main entertaining level, while a fully equipped home theater with projection TV elevates the experience for guests and owners alike. The third floor is reserved for a more private coastal escape. The gulf-front primary suite is a true sanctuary, with panoramic water views and an updated bath featuring dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub and a walk-in shower. Two additional guest rooms, including a bunk room, are served by another full bath and offer ample accommodations for family and visitors. With no HOA, recent full-scale renovations, a new roof and projected annual income of $275,000, this five-bedroom property stands out as a proven investment and an inviting personal retreat. Shopping, dining, golf and entertainment are all close at hand, including Silver Sands Outlet Mall, yet the true luxury here is the rare simplicity of having the beach just beyond your deck and gulf views that carry on for miles....
