This custom built white stucco home is situated along South Walton County's iconic 30A in the Non-HOA community of Gulfview Heights. The home sits on .223 acres, 38 feet plus above sea level (no flood insurance required) and is seven minutes to the deeded beach access and 900 feet to the paved bike path that runs parallel to 30A.

Granite countertops, Kohler fixtures, Kraftmaid cabinetry, solid forged brass hardware, 8' solid wood interior doors, 10' and 12' ceilings, double and triple crown molding, 6' and 8' baseboards, Anderson impacted rated wood-wrapped windows, and French wood doors with triple locking system, hardwood ceilings in the Port-a- cochere and additional 1,000 square foot enclosed sleeping porches with mini splits, and the winding open staircase that will accommodate an elevator exude luxury and elegance. In addition, custom art glass and ceramic exterior lighting and sconces that line the staircase give the home a modern flair, reminiscent of art decor styling. Built ahead of its time, meets and exceeds county building codes making this home extremely storm worthy. The first ten feet of the home and the 16' high walls of the attached Port-a-Cochere are steel reinforced concrete construction, including the 8' high perimeter concrete wall that surrounds the property. Steel rods run up through the exterior walls to the raised seamed metal roof. The windows in the Port-a-Cochere, second and third floors porches are Miami-Dade rated. The heart of the home is located on the third level. The 12' ceilings and over 1800 square foot of open concept living space provides a massive feel. Floor to ceiling solid cherry cabinetry have been installed in the double kitchen and Butler's pantry. Like-new stainless appliances including 4 ovens, 2 cooktops, wine cooler and 2 prep sinks is a chefs dream. The 8' and 10' tall windows (no window treatments needed) along with the three-sided glass sun porches allows for a plethora of natural light and unobstructed views of the horizon of unparalleled sunrises and sunsets. The Port-a-Cochere is equipped with water, sewer, 50 amp, 30 amp and multiple 15/20 amp outlets, recessed lighting, and access to the Lenox heating and cooling system. This space (65 feet long, 15 feed wide, and 16 feed high) will accommodate an RV, boat, golf cart, jet skis, bicycles or enclosed parking for additional vehicles. The space may easily be converted to a carriage house or be an ideal host for a swim spa and sauna. The home is equipped with four independently zoned Train systems (installed 2020). One AC unit is dedicated to the three car oversized garage, workshop and pet/craft room and the other three are independently dedicated to each of the three stories. The three stacked porches were enclosed in 2018 adding 960 square feet of flex space, heated and cooled with Lenox mini-splits. There are twelve new ceiling fans throughout the home. This designed system, combined with spray foam insulation in all exterior walls above the concrete and in the sealed attic space, along with the lush tree canopy on the South side of the home, maintains an average electric bill of $200 or less per month. All plasterboard is fire rated X Board which creates superior fire protection. The home is wired for surround sound and a generator which is included. All bedrooms have vast closet space and multiple windows that offer views of the lush gardens and landscaping and allow in an abundance of natural light. At the ground level an independent living space located off the foyer and gallery includes a kitchenette and almost new washer and dryer, four door stainless refrigerator, double-bowl sink and floor to ceiling maple cabinetry. This majestic home has been untouched by rental guests and is absolutely like-new and move-in-ready. Schedule a private tour today and experience the pinnacle of coastal luxury!
