About This Home

As of July 2026

Tucked within the exclusive, gated waterfront community of Botany Bayou, this exceptional custom brick residence offers a rare blend of refined craftsmanship, privacy, and natural beauty. Backing to a protected state preserve, the home enjoys serene, unobstructed views and a tranquil setting that feels worlds away while remaining close to everything the Emerald Coast has to offer. Thoughtfully designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind, the home features 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, including a versatile private suite above the two-car garage. Complete with its own full bath and an additional bonus/media or game room, this flexible space is ideal for guests, a home office, or multi-generational living. Upon entry, you're welcomed by a warm and inviting foyer with accented reclaimed oak beams that continue into the kitchen and informal dining areas, setting the tone for the home's elevated yet comfortable aesthetic. The living room is a true showpiece, featuring a dramatic half-vaulted ceiling with transom windows that flood the space with natural light, along with a stunning floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace. From here, the home flows effortlessly to the screened back patio, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience ideal for entertaining or relaxed evenings watching your favorite game. The chef's kitchen is both striking and functional, showcasing premium Wolf appliances, a gas range, an eye-catching copper vent hood, and elegant marble countertops. Designed for gathering, it opens beautifully to the main living and dining areas. The primary suite is a true retreat, highlighted by soaring ceilings and expansive windows that frame peaceful preserve views. The spa-inspired primary bath features dual marble-topped vanities, a classic clawfoot soaking tub, and a spacious walk-in shower with floor-to-ceiling tile surround. Additional bedrooms on the main level include a Jack-and-Jill layout as well as a private ensuite guest room, plus a conveniently located half bath. Outdoors, the screened patio offers an inviting space for dining and entertaining, while the fully fenced backyard provides ample room for future enhancements, whether a pool, garden, or expanded outdoor living area, all while maintaining exceptional privacy thanks to the preserve backdrop. Botany Bayou is a boutique, gated community known for its quiet, natural setting and limited number of homesites. Residents enjoy access to a private community dock on Hewett Bayou, perfect for kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply taking in the coastal scenery, as well as a community pool. For boating enthusiasts, both East Hewett Boat Ramp and Bay Circle boat ramp are conveniently located within 5 miles, offering easy access to the bay and beyond. Nature lovers and beachgoers will appreciate being just minutes from Topsail Hill Preserve State Park and Dune Allen Beach Access, providing quick access to scenic trails, rare coastal dune lakes, and the sugar-white sands of the Gulf. This is an exceptional opportunity to own a meticulously designed home in one of Santa Rosa Beach's most serene and sought-after communities.
