About This Home
As of June 2018Introducing Unit 903, aptly named ''Island Breeze'', at Chateau La Mer II Condominium meaning Castle by The Sea! The updated unit offers a light and airy, spacious 2 Bed/2 Bath, 1095-SF floor plan on the desired second floor featuring 13-ft high vaulted ceilings and is tastefully furnished and decorated in coastal colors that give a cool, calm and collected beach vibe to be your ''home away from home''. This enchanting 12-acre condo complex of Chateau Le Mer II is a hidden gem along the graceful beachside curves of Scenic Hwy 98, and a sought-after location for those looking to invest in a low density condo ''down by the sea' being just a short stroll away to the beautiful Emerald Coast of the Gulf of Mexico where white sands and azure waters abound. The recently updated Kitchen exudes the ''WOW'' factor as soon as you step in the front door being well appointed with crisp white cabinetry, beautiful granite throughout with breakfast bar, classic white subway tile backsplash, new deep sink and faucet, and stainless steel appliances that were all replaced in the Fall of 2015, along with modern updated lighting. The Living and Dining Areas beyond continue with 13-foot vaulted ceilings that provide a large open gathering place for family and friends, with a rear private balcony off the Living Area accessed through a sliding glass door, allowing the sunlight to flood in. When it comes time to slumber, the bedrooms are large in size, with the Master accommodating a King-size bed with brand new mattress in 2016, and the Guest Bedroom furnished with 2 full-size beds. Both bathrooms feature new vanities, faucets, and granite counters.The unit easily sleeps 8 people with the new Queen sleeper sofa in the Living Area. The full-size washer and dryer were just replaced in February 2018 making taking care of towels and beach gear a breeze at the end of the day. This gorgeous condo is immaculate, updated, and fully equipped and furnished making it an ideal primary residence, second home, or vacation rental with everything needed to make your stay at the seaside one for the storybooks. Unit 903 makes an impressive vacation rental, currently managed through the onsite Chateau La Mer II rental program, with a strong and consistent proven income, grossing $20,000 annually in 2017 with owner usage.
Chateau La Mer II offers tropical landscaping and well-kept amenities, to include a large heated pool with sun deck for lounging, welcoming clubhouse, tennis courts, community BBQ and picnic areas, additional guest laundry, playground, AND deeded beach access to over 200 feet of private beach frontage. Perfectly situated in Destin on the graceful coastal curves of Scenic Hwy 98 that meanders from Crystal Beach to Miramar Beach, Chateau La Mer II has its very own deeded private beach access. The boardwalk along Scenic Hwy 98 stretches for miles, and you can walk or bike to local restaurants to the east at nearby Captain Daves, Pompano Joes, and the Surf Hut, or to The Crab Trap, 790 on the Gulf, Camilles, and the 5-Diamond Henderson Resort & Spa to the west. Enjoy open air upscale retail shopping at the Destin Commons and Silver Shells Premium Outlets, and grocery shop effortlessly at nearby Publix, The Fresh Market, and Whole Foods, bringing the best of the area to your "home away from home".
Units at Chateau La Mer II rarely become available in this sought after complex offering privacy and tranquility, so don't delay in coming to see all that "Island Breeze" offers!
