Just a short stroll from the Gulfview Heights Beach Access, this Santa Rosa Beach retreat presents a rare opportunity as a premier vacation rental with over $200,000 in projected rental income or private beach house, defined by an unmatched indoor-outdoor living experience. Thoughtfully expanded in 2023, the home features an entirely new first floor that added bedrooms and living space -- significantly boosting sleeping capacity and rental income potential while preserving the character of the original design. A wraparound second-level porch encircles the entire home, offering seamless flow from the interior to multiple outdoor spaces to dine, unwind, and entertain in the Gulf breeze. The backyard is its own destination: a resort-style custom pool, completed in 2022, anchored by an expansive deck built for sunbathing, gathering, and effortless entertaining. It's the kind of amenity that keeps rental calendars full and delivers a private-resort feel just moments from the sand. Inside, bright coastal finishes meet a versatile floor plan tailored for hosting family and guests alike. With the Emerald Coast's sugar-white shorelines, boutique shopping, and favorite local dining just minutes away, this property offers a combination that's hard to find: true beach proximity, fresh turn-key construction, and exceptional outdoor living.
