About This Home

Few condos can beat the breathtaking gulf views that greet you from this fully furnished 9th floor unit at Sterling Shores. Tile floors in the hallway lead into an open living space with LVP wood flooring, a comfy sleeper sofa and ample space for living and dining. All eyes will be drawn to the wall of sliding glass doors that deliver mesmerizing views of the emerald Gulf of Mexico. Step out onto the furnished balcony and admire the stunning views across the pool and resort. The ninth-floor location is perfect for relaxing and enjoying a sense of privacy while still engaging in the resort ambiance. The C-shaped kitchen has everything you need to rustle up snacks and drinks when you don't want to dine at nearby restaurants and bars. Stainless steel appliances and fully wrapped countertops add a sense of luxury. The high-top breakfast bar doubles as a cocktail bar when entertaining. Two generously sized bedrooms include a king-sized master with an ensuite bathroom that has a shower over the tub. A second full bathroom and a handy laundry closet with a stacked washer-dryer complete the well-appointed space. This gated resort is a hidden gem with superb resort-style amenities and a clean refreshing atmosphere being right at the beach. If you fancy a cooling swim, take your pick from the 4,300-square-foot lagoon pool or the gulf-front pool with stunning views. Make use of the onsite fitness room and theater or chill and socialize at the bar and grill. Within easy reach of popular Destin attractions such as The Track and Big Kahuna's Water Park, the central location ensures year-round popularity. Deeded beach access is just 100 feet from the door. For investors, this remodeled unit is a proven moneymaker, with strong rental history dating back to 2021.
