This exceptional five-bedroom craftsman home offers a premier buying opportunity, perfectly positioned on the 3rd hole of the Marsh golf course within the exclusive gated community of Southwind at Bluewater Bay. Every detail of this well-maintained residence has been refreshed to ensure modern comfort and impressive quality. Recent infrastructure improvements and interior refinements include a new roof installed in 2021 and new gutters with leaf guards added in 2025. The home also features a new HVAC system, new window glass and screens, upgraded lighting fixtures and custom window treatments. Premium flooring runs throughout the home: warm hardwood covers the main level and oak-inspired wide plank flooring is on the upper level. While the versatile floor plan offers three distinct indoor living areas, the outdoor space is the true standout of the property. Situated on a rare, oversized 100' x 150' lot, the private backyard serves as an entertainer's dream. It features a saltwater pool and hot tub surrounded by enhanced landscaping, fruit trees, and a newly fenced and re-sodded yard. The outdoor area is completed by a covered, screened patio and expanded guest parking. Residents of Southwind enjoy a luxury lifestyle with access to golfing, tennis, pickleball, sailing and boating on the Choctawhatchee Bay. Located in Niceville--renowned for top-tier schools, restaurants and shopping--the property is just 12 minutes away from the world-famous white sand beaches of Destin.
