282 Blue Mountain Rd, Santa Rosa Beach, FL 32459

This home is the second house back from the beach on western side and situated within a super-exclusive, gated enclave, which enjoys wide view corridors of the emerald Gulf waters from its voluminous second story covered porch and master bedroom, and virtually unobstructed Gulf views from its two third story bedrooms. The experience begins with a covered entry and fountain adjacent to four private parking spaces. Crisply painted white, wood-plank wall paneling contrasts with the deep honey-colored wood flooring which carries throughout all three floors of this residence. Two generous first-floor bedrooms feature access to a covered porch and one has its own private bath. Traditional and understated, the white and grey hexagonal mosaic floors of the baths offset rich wood cabinetry and dark granite countertops. Tall wood-trimmed mirrors are illuminated by unique lighting fixtures. An additional full bath and generous laundry room with ample counter space, sink and ice maker serves as a morning kitchen for guests. The open second-floor living space features a cozy living room lined with tall, sun-filled sets of French doors which open onto a covered porch. The kitchen features wood paneled, European-style cabinetry, rich granite countertops and a large free-standing center island. A traditional farm-style sink is at home amid the stainless steel Viking range, refrigerator and built-in microwave. The master bedroom shares access to the covered porch and features two separate, fully-equipped baths. One houses a walk-in shower and steam, while the other offers extended counter space, free-standing claw-foot tub and toilet with TOTO heated, soft-close bidet seat. Set beneath the pitched roof and bright shed dormer overlooking the Gulf, both of the third-floor bedrooms have their own private baths, one with a walk-in shower and the other with a soaking tub and shower combination. This pristine getaway shares private access to the sugar white beaches of Northwest Florida's Emerald Coast with three other homes located within the confines of this gated grouping. Pool: There is room for a pool with the approval of 3 owners. Landscaping maintenance is included in HOA fees of a low $650 per quarter.
