Rare Gem, 3/4 acre beautiful renovated 4/3 home in downtown Destin in the prestigious Moreno Acres area (Old Destin), on Harbor Lane. 17’ above sea level (no flood insurance required), no HOA or regulations. Parking for your boat and/or Motorhome (with full hook-ups in place). Crown moulding, travertine floors and numerous decorator touches abound in this almost 3200 sq. Ft. home with a 915 square ft. Garage/Shop/Mancave (air conditioned). Nautical antiques abound and all lighting has been replaced both inside and outside the home. Absolutely the most coveted area of Destin, huge spider oaks and canopied streets line this area off Bayou Drive in downtown Destin, several backstreets away from all attractions, including the many shops and HarborTown amenities. The beautiful beach can be accessed in minutes via backstreets leading into Henderson State Park, one of the most pristine beaches in the world….super easy access out of Destin by backstreets that lead to both bridges exiting Destin… Many multi-million dollar waterfront estates encircle the area bordered by Joes Bayou and the bay on each end of Harbor Lane. A neighborhood boat ramp, free for residents, is only minutes away in the neighborhood, providing quick and easy access to the Bay, Crab Island, and the open ocean. Harbor Lane is a quiet and serene street with a public access park a few hundred yards from the home, providing swimming, a picnic area, kayak launch and other water activities. No homes border the front of the residence providing a very private serenity rarely found in downtown Destin. This is truly an Oasis providing a real country feeling....a fully fenced backyard for the pups, topped off with a wonderful Hot Springs Spa to enjoy the serenity. An additional building on property could be converted to living area (already has electric)….many of the homes in this estate area have guest houses. Homemade raised garden beds made of Trex and aluminum for the farmer in you…..plenty of room for a swimming pool if one desired. Open floor plan with a beautiful updated kitchen with stainless appliances, Italian Marble, Island with all granite countertops, shiplap, and tile throughout. No expense spared in this remodel. Wonderful bedroom split plan with one bedroom and bath on the other side of the home to utilize as In-law quarters. Home has a beautiful large gas fireplace in the common area to provide warmth and serenity on those cool winter nights. Huge fenced back yard with custom features like a kayak rack (they can stay with house). A lot of furnishings can stay with the home since this has only been a seasonal home for the owners.....A fire pit area for those cool evenings with sinker cypress (no rot) Adirondack chairs (also can stay). A cavernous Florida Room with large Anderson Windows overlooks this wonderful back yard...great for parties. An almost unused beautiful Bernhardt $8,000 leather sectional anchors this room and may be left by sellers (won’t fit in their old farmhouse in Tennessee). The Florida room could be utilized as an excellent workout room, and is outfitted with a recent split Mitsubishi HVAC....the main house also has an all new Carrier HVAC system, warranted 10 years. The house has been updated with all copper wiring, all new plumbing by Ben Franklin Plumbing (no more corrosive prone copper)...all done to Destin Code....100 % renewal of this gorgeous home....hurricane shutters throughout....recent 50 year metal roof….sprinkler system on a well....a fire/alarm system....this home lacks nothing....may be sold with many furnishings and nautical antiques.... If you have school aged children, the new Destin High School just opened down the street on Commons Drive, the Elementary school and Jr High are also top rated schools in our area ….truly a MUST SEE....call owner Don Guthrie to schedule a viewing...561-385-8864.
