Gulf Breeze - Beach Property For Sale #6739004

This custom home on Santa Rosa Sound offers a rare opportunity to live on one of only nine lots that offer 180-degree unobstructed views of the Sound because the protected 12,000 lb. covered boat lift is located behind the home on a private, owners'-only canal. Or tie up to the 50' x 10' Trex dock with wet-sink and 200 sf storage building. The location is just east of the Naval Live Oaks preserve and is a quick cruise directly to crystal clear water, deep-water fishing or dock-side restaurants. Enjoy nature's beauty from a salt-water pool and 1,298 sf of new Trex decks and patios. On the main living level, a large foyer features custom artisan tiles and private office with closet. French doors open to a spectacular floor to ceiling view of the Sound in the large living-dining area. Winters are cozy in front of a custom Peter King gas FP. Unwind with sunsets every day on the covered deck. The wet bar is definitely a charming party starter, while all the south facing rooms provide hypnotic views of sparkling water, wading birds and occasional fireworks across the Sound. Cooks will appreciate the well-appointed kitchen with double ovens/warming drawers and a large walk-thru pantry. The large 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 suite with a sun deck, wood beam cathedral ceiling, and a remote-controlled fireplace. The room has additional space for a refreshment bar or a seating area. The bath has two walk-in closets, deep jetted tub and a separate walk-in shower w/ water closet. Up a short ship's ladder is the *Crow's Nest* with glass doors to a viewing balcony - think artist loft or reading & nap nook. Mature trees and palms thrive with a deep-well irrigation system. The home's exterior has been totally renovated with new Hardi plank siding, Trex decks/stairs, and a new roof at the end of 2025.
