Few locations will allow you to fully enjoy all of the outdoor recreational activities Northwest Florida's Emerald Coast has to offer better than this fully remodeled home on Okaloosa Island. Situated one row south of Santa Rosa Sound and two blocks north of the Gulf of Mexico, only 300 yards separates it from the nearest beach access. Gulf views can be enjoyed from its large, modern kitchen as well as from its rear deck, which continues around the entire home, that also overlooks its spacious, fenced back yard with private in ground pool. At just over one quarter acre, its corner lot offers plenty of space to park and secure a boat which can be launched from the public ramp at Marler Park just two miles to the east where the Santa Rosa Sound meets Choctawhatchee Bay. The second floor entry gives way to an open concept floor plan. An expansive bar that comfortably seats five connects the window lined living room to the kitchen which features unique, solid surface recycled sea glass counters and custom cherry hardwood cabinets accented by bubble glass door fronts. Its suite of stainless steel appliances includes a Viking 4-burner gas range with griddle and double oven adorned by a Viking vent hood, a Fisher & Paykel double drawer dishwasher, GE trash compactor as well as side by side Frigidaire commercial refrigerator and freezer units. Beyond the dining room, with its full wall pantry and French doors leading to the back deck, is the master bedroom. This light filled room with private French door access to the back deck features a walk-in closet with extensive built-in shelving as well as a charming bath. The nautical inspired Pratt & Larson glazed floor tiles highlights the freestanding claw foot tub with shower attachment, as well as a double vanity with chic, marble counter. A wall clad in crisply painted horizontal wood planks serves as a backdrop for the custom cherry staircase leading to the first floor. A family room with French door access to the covered porch and pool deck creates a private sanctuary for those staying in the three first floor guest bedrooms to enjoy. The southwest bedroom features direct access to the first floor guest bath with large walk in shower as well as French door access to the covered porch while the north facing bedrooms each feature walk-in closets. A laundry room with stacked, front loading LG washer and dryer units features plenty of storage and space to iron. The 18x24-foot oval swimming pool features a new liner and automatic pool cleaner. A sprinkler system with well enables efficient and cost effective maintenance of the sprawling front and back yards, while the Rinnai instant hot water system is both a conscientious and luxurious addition. Santa Rosa Boulevard dead ends into an expanse of government owned beachfront just over a half mile to the west of this home, enhancing its privacy and greatly diminishing traffic while maintaining convenient proximity to shopping, dining and entertainment in both Ft. Walton Beach and Destin.
