About this home
This extraordinary bay front estate is tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac within the gated enclave of Grand Cove in Santa Rosa Beach. It captures the essence of coastal luxury with over 350 feet of shoreline along the serene waters of the Choctawhatchee Bay. A rare offering, this is more than a home--it's a private retreat where sweeping views, thoughtful design, and effortless indoor-outdoor living come together. Recently and tastefully renovated, the residence now showcases a fresh, open-concept floor plan designed for both elevated entertaining and relaxed coastal living. The heart of the home is a beautifully reimagined kitchen featuring new stone surfaces, premium appliances, and generous gathering spaces, all seamlessly flowing into the main living areas. New LVP flooring enhances the warmth and sophistication, while expansive windows and French doors invite in natural light and uninterrupted water views at every turn. New designer lighting adds to the home's appeal throughout while neutral and tasteful furnishings (included) invite relaxation. The main-level owner's suite is a true sanctuary, offering tranquil views of the cove and direct access to the resort-style outdoor spaces. Thoughtfully designed, it includes dual walk-in closets, a spa-like bath, and private spaces for work or wellness. Well-appointed guest accommodations ensure comfort and privacy, with elevated vantage points that continue to showcase the home's stunning waterfront setting. Now configured as a 4-bedroom residence, the layout is both functional and refined. Outdoors, the lifestyle truly comes alive. An expansive pool and spa are surrounded by generous lounging, entertaining, and grilling areas, all framed by the natural beauty of the water. The private dock--with covered boat lift and jet ski access--extends your living space onto the cove, inviting days spent boating, paddleboarding, or simply enjoying the view. With its rare combination of privacy, water frontage, and curated renovation, this is a true estate property--luxurious yet inviting, designed for making lasting memories on the water.
