Thoughtfully curated interiors pay homage to nature in this 4,160-sq.-ft. home in the sought-after waterfront neighborhood of Churchill Oaks. Boasting four beds, four-and-a-half baths, a two-car garage and 12-ft. ceilings throughout, this contemporary residence also includes custom-stained sawn oak floors throughout and purposely placed windows that frame the surrounding pine trees outside. Beyond the custom wood entrance gate with security access, the home will delight your senses with reclaimed Chicago brick pavers, modern cabinetry, mantels, and shelving, including a custom, glass-walled wine cellar capable of holding 2,000 bottles. The well-appointed kitchen is dressed with Nambian marble countertops and outfitted with an induction cooktop, double ovens with warming drawer, three dishwashers, curved breakfast bar and a Galley sink with dual commercial-grade faucets. An adjacent butler's pantry is ideal for storage and concealing additional appliances. The comfortable living room is home to one of three fireplaces in the house, with the others located in the owner's suite and outdoor living space. A wet bar area features an ice maker and beverage cooler. The masterful owner's suite is marked by a freestanding partition as the room's centerpiece and a gas fireplace. The en suite bath has luxurious marble flooring with white cabinetry, claw-foot tub and crystal chandelier. A glass-enclosed steam shower is lined in Carrara gold marble, while Nambian marble sits atop the counters. Hallmarks of the home's exterior include a smooth stucco finish, summer kitchen positioned under a covered veranda and two-car garage. Additional notable features of this property are a whole-home generator, whole-home water purification system, Rinnai tankless water heater, two HVAC systems, and a security system with interior and exterior cameras. Churchill Oaks is ensconced in quiet grandeur while still remaining near all of the amenities South Walton is known for. One of the most exclusive communities in Walton County, it features a generous infinity-edge pool, clubhouse and marina positioned right on Choctawhatchee Bay.
