A rare opportunity to purchase the last sizable lot in Miramar Beach that's only 30 feet from it's beach access, this property has substantial potential including unobstructed beach views and gross rental income of up to $300K. As an added bonus, a 720 square foot cottage that is currently undergoing extensive renovations will convey with the sale. Exterior improvements on the existing home include a new metal roof, a new screened in front porch, Hardie board siding, new doors, and new vinyl windows. Interior renovations consist of new plumbing, insulated foam in the attic and under the house, new flooring, new kitchen cabinets and granite counter tops, new vanities, new marble shower with rainfall shower head/diverter, new sheet-rock, new solid wood doors with crystal Emtek hardware, and a custom built bunk bed in the guest bedroom. Best off all, the cottage is off-grade, so re-positioning it on the lot to make way for a large main home is easy. Located within walking distance to Silver Sands and only a couple of minutes from the Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort, this 2nd tier property is sited in one of the most desirable areas of Miramar Beach. In addition, Sand Trap Road is an intimate and quiet street that's tucked away with no public parking, insuring there's always ample room at the beach for you and your family to enjoy. The adjacent lot just recently closed for $1.1 million, making this property priced for a quick sale – it will not last long! Potential Buyers or their Agents should confirm all information to their satisfaction.
