Captivating views from your own backyard paradise on protective waterfront of Lake Vivian with easy access to the bay. Brand new roof installed November 2020. Double front door with iron overlay as you approach the home. Impeccable hardwood floors greet you as you enter (refinished in March 2021). Breathtaking views begin right in the family room with hurricane windows and doors across the back of the home. Entertaining in kitchen is a dream with chef-grade appliances, from a Viking gas cooktop to new GE Profile (2021) oven and microwave combination to the GE Profile dishwasher (2020) and French style refrigerator too! Plenty of counter top space with granite for ease of cleaning, featuring a two-level island with mini-fridge, prep sink and bar-height seating. Spacious outdoor living begins with a screened porch and an in-ground swimming pool, which can be used all year long (gas heater 2018). The expansive pool deck gives you plenty of space to enjoy the views across the Choctawhatchee Bay to the Destin Bay Bridge. The stairs off the raised pool deck lead you to the shared dock and its own boat lift, on the right, on a protected harbor just seconds away from sailing on the Bay to the open Gulf. Whether you enjoy the salt of the bay or the pool you can rinse off in the outdoor shower. New shadowbox fencing (2021) provides privacy while the new aluminum fencing (2021) enhances the waterfront view.

Come inside and retreat to the upstairs loft with your private screened in balcony to watch sunrises. The bamboo flooring adds richness to this home. The loft area is a multi-faceted space for your game room, family room, or home office, the possibilities are endless.

The uniqueness about this home is it affords 2 primary suites. The loft area leads to one of the private suites with a beautifully designed ensuite. The natural lighting in the bathroom is sufficient all day long saving on energy cost. Gorgeous walk-in tiled shower and soaking tub. Vanity with granite counters and plenty of storage. The closet space goes beyond just check out the pictures. The windows are dressed with plantation shutters.

Going back downstairs, you have two separate living areas. The family room with vaulted ceiling and stone fireplace that can be seen from the loft. The additional living room provides great space for entertaining. Down the hallway you have 2 guest bedrooms and 2nd primary suite. The primary suite has windows on 2 walls with plantation shutters. The ensuite with whirlpool tub, separate shower and a private water closet.

Laundry/Utility room had a facelift in 2021. New tile floors, water heater (2020), new utility sink, and decorative tile on the wall. Plenty of shelving for storage.

The garage has fresh painted walls and ceiling. A new metal attic ladder was installed in (2020). The garage door is now rated to hurricane standards (2021) and the auto opener was replaced in (2020).

Parking is not a concern at this home, as there is ample space in the freshly painted, decorative circle driveway.
