About This Home
As of August 2024Primely positioned and beautifully designed, 40 Whispering Wind Way is a newly built legacy retreat located within the exclusive gated enclave (no short term rentals) of Bannerman Beach which offers 3.4 acres of private deeded beach access for it's boutique 19 lot plat and is directly adjacent to Grayton Beach State Park along the pristine 30A coastline. This custom-built estate is the epitome of private living, designed with Hamptons-style qualities that maximize the half acre lot size boasting exquisite amenities such as a private pickle ball court, spacious private pool and surrounding pool deck and sweeping gulf views from the third floor tower. The exterior architecture of this residence is a work of art, adorned with authentic reclaimed wood beam accents and artisan-sourced brickwork, creating a captivating facade that is sure to leave a lasting impression. Notably, it stands as the only private home on 30A with its very own private pickleball court, adding a rare and appealing dimension to the property. Bannerman Beach is located south of 30A, allowing its owners exclusive access to one of the most private stretches of beach in North Florida.
The home also offers breathtaking Gulf views, further enhancing its allure. With 6 bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms (primarily laid out over a single level) and a sprawling 6,347 square feet of living space, this home provides ample room for both relaxation and entertainment. It features a heated 16x30 pool, a private elevator, a spacious third-floor viewing deck with prominent Gulf views, and a built-in outdoor kitchen. Additionally, hand-selected furniture and lighting packages complement the home's style, and a unique beach lobby area welcomes you to the coast. Dual primary suites on the first floor provide convenience and comfort, and the 3.4-acre private beach access is exclusively available for the gated neighborhood residents. Exceptional lot positioning with over half an acre of land and reclaimed beams imported from Canada add to the property's character.
Bannerman Beach is an unparalleled neighborhood that remains notable for it's gated privacy and exclusivity while still allowing excellent proximity to both the east and west ends of 30A including immediate adjacency to Grayton Beach, FL as well as the epicenter of 30A in Seaside FL. Each lot boasts a minimum of half an acre significantly reducing the overall density and maintaining a non rental status that elevates it's privacy and security.
