There is a certain confidence to a home that knows exactly what it is, and this gulf-front villa delivers it from the moment you arrive. With four levels of thoughtfully designed living, direct access to the sand and sweeping water views from nearly every floor, this residence offers the kind of beachfront experience buyers rarely find: polished, private and fully equipped for both personal enjoyment and high-performing rental potential. Completed in 2021 as part of Destin's highly anticipated Henderson Beach Villas, this five-bedroom (easily converting to six with a potential bunkroom) residence spans approximately 3,032 square feet and places the beach at center stage at every opportunity. Step straight out to the sand from the expanded 102-sq.-ft. ground-floor patio, or take in the changing colors of the water from balconies and outdoor living spaces framed with see-through glass railings. At the top, a 658-sq.-ft. rooftop deck creates a remarkable setting for sunset evenings, complete with a heated 9-by-16 gunite pool, covered cabana, and additional storage. Inside, professionally designed interiors by Duce & Company Interiors pair durability with a refined coastal finish. Porcelain and hardwood floors run throughout the home, while high-impact retractable glass sliders, a 10-ft. first-floor ceiling, custom shaker cabinetry and a sophisticated mix of quartz, marble and quartzite surfaces elevate the kitchen and baths. Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances anchor the kitchen, and an in-unit elevator makes all four levels easily accessible. This villa was designed for comfort as much as style. A private theater and game room add another layer of livability, while extensive soundproofing includes dual acoustical panels and firewalls between units, soundproofing between floors, and sound mats beneath every level. The home is also pre-wired for Control4 smart home operation and includes a full-home sound system. Recent updates further enhance functionality and peace of mind, including a complete pool refinish with plumbing, waterproofing of the pool basin, a finished attic floor for additional storage and surge protectors installed on the AC units. A UniFi enterprise-grade network system with wiring and cameras services the entire property and allows Wi-Fi coverage throughout the home and onto the beach. With private deeded beach access, community grilling stations, gated beachfront entry, a private beach walkover, two dedicated parking spaces plus five additional guest spaces and short-term rentals allowed, this 10-unit gulf-front offering is as compelling for investment as it is for lifestyle. Elegant, highly functional and positioned directly on the sand, this is beachfront living with real presence.
