Notes: |
This amazing island home has gorgeous OPEN GULF OF MEXICO views from almost all rooms! With 4,366 square feet of conditioned space, you will have plenty of room to entertain--in this open floor plan that cries out for entertaining! Upstairs, on the main floor, the two generous bedrooms are in a split floor plan, with lots of living and dining space between. The well-appointed kitchen, with tons of custom wood cabinetry, boasts two granite-topped islands--one equipped for working, and the other ready for seating. The cabinetry-matched refrigerator/freezer, double wall oven, extensive pantry area, contrasting wood accents and multiple glass display cabinets make this a kitchen to be most proud of. You will not be short of kitchen space! Let in as much light as you'd like--the living area is graced with a wall of plantation-shuttered windows overlooking the Gulf and the uninhabited islands in the distance. The sprawling master suite includes custom wall artistry, a large sitting area, a Gulf view, a room-sized and a well-appointed master closet. Wood shelving will keep your items easily organized, and there is plenty of room! The master bathroom has everything you need to pamper yourself--double sinks, custom cabinetry, a beautifully-tiled and roomy glass shower, and even a walk-in tub! The guest room very easily fits the two queen beds, with a nice ensuite bath which also includes a walk-in tub. Ready to get by the saltwater? The house-wide deck with stainless railing and glass railing infill is waiting for you! Lounge on the house side of the deck, or walk along the boardwalk and down the stairs to the two-level boathouse and sun on the top--towering above the Gulf, soaking up the sun and the glorious expansive views. Back inside, you can choose to take the passenger elevator, or the unique shell-and-mural donned stairway to the downstairs, where you will find a full separate-entry water view one bedroom apartment, a deep two-car garage, and a covered water front patio. This home is one of the largest on the island, and in a spot with spectacular views and access to the Gulf. Have an airplane? The island's public 2400-foot paved landing strip is right across the road. Use the public tie-downs and be ready to go up anytime. The aerial views of "The Nature Coast" are hard to beat! Want some land fun? Hop in your golf cart, follow the water's edge, and in just minutes you will be at the island's downtown, where you can grab a coffee, a smoothie, or a pastry, or stop by the library, community garden, post office or the park. With plenty of restaurants, bars, shops, and even an Art Center, you can keep yourself entertained. This charming island is an amazingly-preserved slice of "Old Florida" which is quickly disappearing in other areas of the state. Come and take a look--you will not be disappointed! |
