Tucked within the guard-gated, gulf-front community of Caribe and set on one of the highest elevations in Miramar Beach, this timeless coastal retreat is ideally positioned between the Gulf and the community pool--placing the best of the Emerald Coast just moments from your door. From the moment you arrive, the home begins to tell its story. A shuttered front porch offers a private, shaded escape--perfect for relaxed dinners or slow mornings with coffee. Beyond, four additional porches unfold, each one extending the living spaces outward and inviting in Gulf breezes and soft coastal light. With five airy porches in total, the home is designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living and effortless entertaining. Inside, classic architectural details set the tone. Soaring 12-foot ceilings anchor the main living and dining areas, while solid 8-foot raised panel doors, custom millwork, and a vaulted primary suite ceiling create a refined, "Garden District" feel. The layout offers both comfort and flexibility, with two bedrooms on the main level and a private primary suite spanning the entire second floor--a true retreat above it all. Finishes include hardwood flooring, granite countertops in the kitchen, and marble surfaces in the primary bath. Rare exterior storage is highlighted by a lattice drive-under pergola. Caribe is a low-density, thoughtfully planned guard-gated community known for its winding paths, lush landscaping, and rare stretch of 500 feet of private neighborhood beach--an uncrowded expanse of sugar-white sand and emerald Gulf waters that feels worlds away. With two community pools, tennis courts, and quiet beaches - there's only one Caribe. Originally designed by Christ & Associates, the visionaries behind Caribe, the home artfully blends a taste of New Orleans with a sense of the Caribbean--capturing a style that is both classic and enduring. Five porches. One unforgettable sunset. And a home that lives as beautifully as it was designed.
