Open the front door of this stunning 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath Gulf-front condo with a spacious den and delight in panoramic views of the Gulf through floor-to-ceiling, sliding-glass doors in every room. Perched on the third floor, this residence captures the beauty of swaying palm trees, soft white sand, and miles of mesmerizing sea—an ever-changing canvas of sun and sky. The interior has been completely and thoughtfully updated in soft, neutral hues that echo the surrounding beachscape. Sleek tile flooring runs throughout, enhancing the serene, airy palette. The kitchen has been completely remodeled and opened up, allowing the captivating view to extend seamlessly through the main living space. The Unit is equipped with an in-unit laundry room, walk-in closets in each of the two bedrooms and a flexible third room that can serve as a den, office or child’s bedroom, all of which make everyday living here is as effortless as it is beautiful. Step outside any room and marvel at the 48x8 foot Gulf-front balcony—large enough for both a dining table and a separate seating area—perfect for al fresco meals, morning coffee, or a cocktail party with friends to enjoy an unbeatable view of the sunset.
