Welcome to coastal living at its finest in WindMark Beach. This beautifully designed residence blends modern comfort with relaxed seaside style, offering five bedrooms, three baths, and more than 2,500 square feet of thoughtfully planned living space—ideal for a primary home, second residence, or investment opportunity. The main level is designed for everyday ease and entertaining, centered around an open-concept layout that connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas. Granite countertops and stainless appliances anchor the kitchen while maintaining a clean, modern aesthetic that flows naturally into the surrounding spaces. A second living area adds versatility, creating room for movie nights, games, or a quieter retreat away from the main gathering space. Upstairs, the primary suite is positioned for privacy, offering a calm and comfortable escape at the end of the day. Outdoor living is a defining feature of this property. The spacious backyard has been carefully maintained and arranged for both relaxation and entertaining, complete with a furnished patio, outdoor kitchen and grill area, a wood-burning fire pit, and a swing set that makes the space inviting for all ages. Recent enhancements include an expanded paver driveway for additional parking and new sod installed this summer, elevating both curb appeal and functionality. Residents enjoy access to resort-style amenities throughout the WindMark Beach community, including multiple pools, a fitness center, playground, boardwalks to the beach, and miles of bike and walking trails. The Village Town Center is just a short golf-cart ride away, offering convenient access to The Mill Mercantile & Social, Bruno's Pizza, and more. This golf-cart-friendly setting also features pet-friendly beaches and is located just 3.5 miles from Port St. Joe and Point South Marina, placing dining, boating, and waterfront activities within easy reach.
