There are homes that are built on the coast, & then there are homes that were thoughtfully designed to belong here. Set on nearly ½ acre of coastal land, just two homes from the beach, this remarkable property is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Florida’s shoreline where the natural landscape has been carefully preserved and respected. With a private walkway providing access to both the Gulf and Bay, the location is truly exceptional.
Nearly 2000 sqft (under air) of single-level living space sits elevated on a natural mound, reflecting a thoughtful approach to Florida’s terrain, climate & weather patterns. The home was carefully built with the intention of standing the test of time. During Hurricane Milton, the property did experience limited water intrusion of approximately 4–8 inches, while surrounding areas of the key experienced significantly more extensive storm impacts.
Inside, the home has been thoughtfully remodeled to preserve its character while creating a welcoming, functional & remarkably versatile living environment. The design embraces the principles of universal accessibility, making the home comfortable for young families, those planning to age in place, multi-generational households, guests with mobility considerations, & anyone who simply appreciates an easy, open floor plan.
The light-filled coastal great room, accented by vaulted ceilings, offers multiple gathering spaces without sacrificing openness. At the center of it all is the expansive quartz island—the true “where everything happens” heart of the kitchen. Plenty of room for two cooks to work comfortably together. The oversized dining area & inviting family room allow everyone to gather, mingle & enjoy the moment without feeling crowded.
And then there is the fireplace—affectionately known as the “Memory Maker.” This is the place where family photographs are taken, stockings are hung, pumpkins appear, Valentine’s Day brings hugs and kisses, shamrocks bring smiles, greeting cards fill the mantle, and on a chilly Florida morning, a crackling fire simply reminds you that life is good.
The home’s large media/flex room is another standout feature. Complete with a generous closet, separate entrance and pocket door, this space can become virtually anything you need—a home office, guest retreat, in-law sanctuary, hobby or media room. This flexibility offers considerably more functional living space than the bedroom count alone suggests.
The 2 private exterior bathroom doors make coming home from the beach especially convenient. An outdoor shower provides the perfect place for family, guests and even four-legged friends to rinse away sand & salt before entering the home.
The extensive updates include a new roof (1-year old), new hot water tank, 200-amp electrical panel, replacement of bottom electrical outlets throughout, new recessed lighting, dimmer switches, new appliances, remodeled kitchen & bathrooms, new flooring, fresh interior & exterior paint, 12 new Eureka trees, a new garage door & refinished epoxy garage floor. The HVAC system includes 1 newer unit & 1 older unit.
Perhaps most importantly, this is an opportunity to own land— and there simply isn’t more coastal land being created.
Come experience the ease, flexibility and feeling of this one-of-a-kind coastal home—where the land is special, the home was built with intention, & the spaces are ready to help you make memories for years to come. So much more to share, so please request a showing!
