Custom home built by Artisan Builders just south of 30A between Seaside and Rosemary Beach, in a private subdivision on the high side of Eastern Lake. With your own dock and 90 feet on this protected Coastal Dune Lake, your family will always be able to fish and paddle down to the Gulf to enjoy both the beach and the lake's outfall, which has served as a swimming hole for children forever. Tastefully decorated with four bedrooms (two masters) and 3-1/2 bathrooms. The downstairs is on a level with the home's inviting bricked driveway, and the side yard is large enough for a pool. The downstairs bedroom can accommodate a king-sized bed, and the hall bath is handicap-accessible. Agent has ownership interest in property.
