About This Home

A truly exceptional bayview estate offering a rare blend of privacy, scale, and timeless coastal elegance. Gracefully positioned on more than two acres of manicured grounds, this remarkable property captures unobstructed, forever-protected views of the bay just across the street--where each evening is defined by breathtaking sunsets over the water. Thoughtfully composed as a private compound, the estate includes a well-appointed main residence complemented by a separate guest house, creating an ideal setting for hosting with both comfort and discretion. The outdoor experience is equally refined, anchored by a resort-style pool and expansive grounds that invite both relaxation and entertaining on a grand scale. Additional structures enhance both lifestyle and functionality, including a detached fitness studio, utility shed, and equipment for maintaining the property with ease. With no HOA, the estate offers complete freedom--allowing for a true sense of ownership without restriction, whether for recreation, expansion, or long-term investment. The property is also in desirable Flood Zone X and does not require flood insurance. Set within the natural beauty of Walton County north of the bay, this property delivers a sense of space and tranquility that is increasingly rare, while remaining just minutes from Freeport's conveniences and just 15 minutes from the world-renowned beaches of Scenic Highway 30A. Offered at a compelling value below two million dollars, this is an uncommon opportunity to secure a fully realized estate with acreage, water views, and enduring appeal--where lifestyle, privacy, and setting come together in a way that cannot be replicated.
