Property Description

This custom home on Santa Rosa Sound is a rare opportunity to enjoy a truly unique resort lifestyle. You will be captivated by 180-degree views of the national seashore, Pensacola Beach, and the Naval Live Oaks. Watch dolphins frolic from your salt-water pool, entertain on 1298 sf of decks and patios and keep your boat protected in the "owners only" canal. On the second level, a large entry features artist tiles and a private office with closet. French doors open to a spectacular view of the Sound in the large living/dining area. Get cozy in front of a stunning Peter King bas-relief gas FP and bask in sunsets on your covered deck. The wet bar is definitely a charming party starter, while the formal dining area provides hypnotic views of sparkling water, wading birds and Portofino's fireworks. The well-appointed eat-in kitchen has one of the best views. Cooks will appreciate double ovens/warming drawers, storage galore and a walk-thru pantry. The laundry room has an electric dumbwaiter that services all floors. Two more bedrooms, a full bath and powder room complete the living floor. On the third floor is a large, light-filled adult retreat with a sun deck, wood cathedral ceiling, and remote controlled fireplace. There's also room to add a refreshment area. The bath has two walk-in closets, deep jetted tub and a separate walk-in shower w/ water closet. Up a ship's ladder is the "Crow's Nest" with glass doors to a "telescope balcony"- think artist loft, reading & nap nook. Dock the boat in a private canal with a 12,000 lb. covered lift, 50' x 10' Trex dock, wet fish sink and 200 sf storage building for all the tackle you'll need. You can quickly boat to dining, watch the Blue Angels fly or easily reach deep water from your front door. Mature trees, palms and landscape thrive with a deep-well irrigation system. The home's exterior has been totally remodeled/renovated and improved with new Hardi plank siding, Trex decks/stairs, and a new roof in 2025.
