About this home

The quintessential beach home with beautiful views of the Gulf of Mexico. This home has been masterfully remodeled featuring faux finishing and expert woodworking as well as a brand new screened and heated pool. Resting upon an enormous lot with specimen plantings and a dock this special property is closer to the beach than many gulf front homes at a fraction of the price. The deeded beach access across the shell road guarantees vast views over the Gulf of Mexico in perpetuity. Truly a unique offering!
