Just minutes from 30A beaches. From the moment you arrive, you'll be captivated by the home's inviting presence, new construction quality, and thoughtfully designed layout that blends comfort, function, and modern coastal style. Step inside to a light-filled open-concept floor plan featuring a welcoming foyer, a formal dining room, and a dedicated breakfast room perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The expansive living area flows seamlessly into a chef-inspired kitchen with brand-new appliances, modern cabinetry, and premium finishes. A versatile bonus flex space offers the perfect opportunity for a home office, study, or media room, providing flexibility for today's lifestyle needs. The spacious primary suite offers a private retreat with spa-like features, while four additional bedrooms provide ample space for family, guests, or multi-generational living--all finished with clean, modern design and high-quality craftsmanship throughout. Enjoy true Florida waterfront living with both a large covered front porch and an expansive covered back porch, ideal for relaxing, entertaining, and enjoying peaceful water views and coastal breezes. The backyard flows naturally toward your private boat dock with direct access to the bay, making boating, fishing, paddleboarding, and sunset cruises effortless. Set on almost an expansive private lot, this property offers exceptional room for a future pool, outdoor kitchen, or custom outdoor oasis.
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.
