**NEW PRICE !! CHECK OUT THE PRICE PER SQUARE FOOT ** With its distinctive design, thoughtful features, and modern appeal, this waterfront home is an exceptional find. Located on beautiful Dauphin Island in the DeSoto Landing gated community, this nearly 5000 square foot house was built in 2024 on a 1.2+/- acre beach front lot with the idea of creating a large beach home where style meets functionality. This is presently the only house on the Island running off solar power with 3 Tesla Powerwall backup batteries. This saves you money on power company bills and will seamlessly power the entire house and the EV charging station during power outages. The owners insisted on quality construction, so the home was built to Gold Fortified standards and was awarded a Gold Fortified Home-Hurricane designation on 7/23/24. To remove any accessibility issues, an elevator for people and cargo is available from the ground level on up to the 1st and 2nd floors. As you tour the 1st floor of the west side of the house you will be pleased with the soothing color scheme, the open concept kitchen and great room, the durable LVP flooring, quartz countertops, ample kitchen cabinets, fireplace, access to the expansive deck, and lots of large, impact resistant windows and doors to view the beauty of the beach, water, and sky. Additionally, there is one bedroom with its own bathroom and a guest half bath. The west side also has its own laundry room with an 80-gallon water heater and this side of the house has its own HVAC system. On the second floor of the west side are 2 additional bedrooms each with their own full bathroom and the very special master suite. The ample sized master bedroom with a calming dark blue accent wall is crowned with a cathedral style ceiling. The master bathroom provides a double vanity, relaxing whirlpool tub and separate shower. Accessible only through the master suite is the private deck with a hot tub, TV, and more beautiful views of the Gulf and beach. To make the 2nd floor even more enjoyable, at the end of the 2nd floor hallway is the door opening into 2 smaller bonus rooms, and a half bathroom, and a private office. While not a duplex, the east side of the house was designed to be self-sufficient so that it can enjoyed as a private retreat, making vacations with large extended family or friends very comfortable and convenient. The east side continues with the same color scheme as the rest of the house and has 2 bedrooms, one full bathroom, and a half bath, laundry room, water heater, HVAC system, an open concept kitchen and den, and access to the deck. For everyone to enjoy the outdoors, the house deck space is expansive for enjoying spacious views of the beach and sky. The elevated beach boardwalk can be accessed from the main deck or from underneath the house and is softly illuminated for evening walks. This one-of-kind, fabulous house also has outdoor security cameras and a water purification system. Along with being an exceptional beach home, its location in the DeSoto Landing gated community gives you an even greater exclusive feel. Enjoy a game of tennis or pickleball, or a dip in the sparkling pool in this quiet community. The house is being sold fully furnished. If great comfort, functionality, and style are what you are looking for in a beach home, 613 Hernando Place is the one for you.
