Seagrove Magnolia offers a rare combination of modern construction and mature surroundings in the heart of Old Seagrove. Built in 2016 and arranged across four levels, the 4,166-square-foot home was designed for the way families gather, entertain, and return to 30A year after year. Multiple living spaces, expansive porches, and private bedroom suites create a residence that functions equally well as a beach retreat or full-time home. Arrival begins with a circular drive framed by mature landscaping and a front porch finished with natural wood ceilings and flooring. Inside, oak floors, tall ceilings, and warm natural materials create an atmosphere that feels established and welcoming. The first floor functions almost as a private residence within the home, complete with its own exterior entrance, full kitchen, living area, king bedroom, bath, and laundry area. Whether accommodating extended family, long-term guests, or multiple generations under one roof, the space offers a level of independence rarely found in a traditional beach home. The second floor serves as the center of daily life. An open-concept kitchen, dining area, and living room connect seamlessly to the surrounding porches. Anchored by a Bertazzoni gas range and hood, generous pantry storage, and premium appliances, the kitchen was built to support extended stays and large gatherings. A king suite on this level offers the convenience of single-level living adjacent to the home's primary gathering spaces, while an office area and a full laundry room with sink, storage, and additional ice maker support both everyday living and extended stays. The third floor introduces another gathering space with a casual living area, game table, and porches on both sides of the home. Two king bedrooms and a bunk room with four extra-long twin beds create comfortable accommodations for family and guests, while the layout allows different groups to occupy the residence at the same time while maintaining privacy and separation. Outside, the recently refreshed pool area serves as a private backyard retreat surrounded by mature vegetation. Covered lounging areas provide welcome shade, while artificial turf, a putting green, and a built-in gas grill connected to inline gas service create an environment designed for easy outdoor living. The setting reflects the character that has long distinguished Old Seagrove from newer coastal communities. At the top of the home, a fourth-floor tower room provides one of the property's most memorable spaces. Finished with oak floors and wood ceilings, the room serves as a retreat above the surrounding canopy. Filtered Gulf views emerge through the trees and rooftops, while the open deck offers an elevated perspective that captures the unique landscape of Old Seagrove. Beyond its architectural character, the home incorporates the practical systems experienced owners appreciate, including multiple HVAC systems, a dumbwaiter, fire suppression system, impact-rated windows, Neuma exterior doors, a standing seam metal roof, substantial owner storage, and an oversized garage. Located approximately 300 yards from the Nightcap Street beach access and roughly one-half mile from Seaside's Town Center, Seagrove Magnolia places the beach, shopping, dining, and entertainment of 30A within easy reach. Offered furnished and supported by a strong rental history, the home presents an opportunity to enjoy the character of Old Seagrove while benefiting from the comfort and convenience of a newer home.

Santa Rosa Beach, located between Grayton Beach State Park and Seaside, is a coastal and low-rise Miramar Beach neighborhood with dune-backed shorelines and pine-flatwood trails. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the 30A corridor near the County Highway 393 junction, where bike traffic, beach cruisers, and small storefronts set a relaxed, design-forward pace. Architectural cues lean toward coastal cottages and contemporary beach homes with deep porches and metal roofs. Gulf views and rare coastal dune lakes shape daily rhythms, with boardwalks and trailheads threading through scrub and sand. Community pillars include The REP Theatre in Seaside, the open-air E.O. Wilson Park, and the long-running Grayton Beer Company taproom.
