Upscale Beachside Townhome Steps From the Sand
Summary: Beachside Bliss Destin: Tranquil, Tasteful, and Terrifically Located! Welcome to a coastal haven in the heart of Destin, Florida! Elegantly nestled within a serene, gated community, our 2-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom retreat comfortably sleeps 6 and is designed for those who desire an experience steeped in peace, luxury, and natural beauty.
The Space: “This place has a WOW factor as soon as you walk in the front door… Probably on my top 5 places I have ever stayed, and the beautiful beach only compliments this well-manicured home!”- Michael 2024
Peaceful & Private: This 1,700 sq. foot home promises undisturbed relaxation. Located right beside the community pool, the real gem is the private beach access. A gentle stroll down the secluded sidewalk leads you straight to the soft, sun-kissed sands of Destin – no roads to cross, no crowds to navigate. The whisper of the waves and the rustling of the palm leaves are the only sounds you'll hear. Adjacently, the community tennis courts await… we have both pickleball and tennis rackets at this property for you to have a fun game with the family!
Clean Coastal with a Modern Twist: Step inside to discover a spacious and sunlit sanctuary, where 'Clean Coastal' meets modern for an upscale vibe. The open-concept living space boasts a staggering 26-foot ceiling, creating an airy ambience that invites the outside in. Impeccably styled with hints of modern flair, every corner evokes relaxation and rejuvenation. Think crisp whites paired with soothing blues, sleek furnishings softened by plush fabrics, and coastal accents that nod to our seaside locale.
Relax, Slow Down, and Create Memories: This isn't just a place to stay; it's a place to live, love, and laugh. Here, every moment becomes a cherished memory. Lounge on the beautiful outdoor patio with a book, share stories under the stars, or simply let the rhythmic sound of the ocean lull you into a serene slumber.
Central to All Things Destin: This prime location is a gateway to all the adventures and attractions Destin has to offer. We're a stone's throw away from the pristine Destin Beaches, scenic Local State Park Beaches, and the vibrant Crab Island. Get your adrenaline pumping with cart racing, cool down at the water parks, or try your hand at fishing in the Destin Harbor. Golf aficionados will appreciate the proximity to lush courses, shoppers can lose themselves in expansive retail areas, and the gastronome in you will revel in the array of local dining and bars. And don't forget the enchanting Baytown Wharf – a hub of entertainment and excitement.
Dive into the Destin experience with us and find out what it truly means to holiday in style. This is where memories are made, and where every sunrise beckons a new adventure. Your beachside bliss awaits!
