This bespoke WaterSound Beach house combines front-row gulf and dune lake views with curated finishes for the most discerning buyer. Featured in VIE Magazine, this Nantucket style masterpiece was designed by Merrill, Pastor and Colgan Architects, whose designs include The Chapel at Seaside, Rosemary Beach Town Hall and many notable local homes. The meticulously manicured courtyard welcomes guests with an expansive Brazilian hardwood deck providing shaded alfresco dining. The foyer makes a grand first impression with Waterworks travertine flooring, wood-clad walls and designer lighting. An elevator effortlessly carries you between all three floors. Level One has a master suite complete with a custom Poliform walk-in closet, spa-inspired bathroom and a private screened porch with gulf views. Level one hosts two additional guest suites with ensuite baths, providing excellent accommodations for family and guests. The sizable mud room/laundry provides access from the outdoor outdoor shower, a perfect place to rinse after a day at the beach. Head upstairs to experience the truly stunning views that await! Expansive windows deliver incredible coastal vistas while flooding the living areas with natural light. The open great room is designed for gatherings around the fireplace that opens to the dining area and entertaining porch. The magnificent outdoor decks on both the first and second floors span the entire width of the home. The formal dining area adjoins one of the most noteworthy chef's kitchens in WaterSound Beach. It has no less than four Miele ovens, including two convection ovens, a speed oven and a steam oven. Other high-end appliances include a Miele refrigerator/freezer, a Sub Zero built-in ice maker and a wine cooler. Okite Italian quartz countertops along with a host of teak cabinets and a tile backsplash by Ann Sacks create a cooking space that artfully combines beauty and function. The eat-in bistro table is perfect for cozy evenings at home. The remainder of level two has a media room/office and a powder room. The top-floor suite is the owner's sanctuary, and it's all about enjoying uninterrupted views of the dunes, Camp Creek Lake and the Gulf of Mexico. Beneath the apex ceiling, there's ample space for a king-sized bed, custom shelving, two walk-in closets and his-and-hers desks. Two swivel armchairs allow you to start the day at a gentle pace with a cup of coffee while gazing out across the dunes. A second Miele laundry and wet bar provide added convenience. The his/her spa-like bathroom experience has teak cabinetry and radiant floors, delivering gentle heat on cooler mornings. Two separate garages provide storage for cars and beach toys, while a 4 foot basement houses the geothermal HVAC systems supporting the home. Watersound Beach provides access to miles of uncrowded beach for strolls with pelicans, dolphins, turtles and sandpipers for company. All this comes with access to the outstanding WaterSound amenities that include pools, parks, a fitness center, miles of boardwalks and community docks for kayaking on Camp Creek lake.
