~LIFE IS SHORT~BUY THE BEACH HOUSE~ This Luxury Seaside Sanctuary invites you to enjoy life in this beautifully appointed, fully remodeled Retreat home with 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, a large 2 car garage and.... a 700+ bottle walk-in wine closet (with biometric entry, no less). The home was remodeled in 2016, and perfectly maintained with daily care and great attention to detail and style. New in 2016 are windows & 3 large sliders, Roof, HVAC, Tankless WH, all electric, propane gas, Generator, all bathrooms and the addition of the 2 car garage; the dock and 70' seawall were completed in 2019. The Gourmet Kitchen features Miele Gas Range & hood, Miele Oven & separate steam oven, Samsung refrig/fr, 24 bottle under counter wine chiller and much more. Entertaining is easy in this sleek open kitchen with crisp Wilsonart Quartz on oversized counters, Swarovski crystal lights, and an abundance of storage space including a walk-in pantry and interior laundry room with sink & storage. The open living space has gorgeous views and a working wood-burning stone fireplace with a separate dining area with electric shades for the windows. The Owners retreat has sliders to the rear patio and features an enormous bathroom with soaking tub, step-in shower, dual sinks and customized walk-in closets. Elegant plank tile flooring goes throughout the home, except the carpeted 4th bedroom, which is currently being used as a second den with wine closet. This bedroom/den would make an excellent in-law or separate guest suite. The entire home has a beautiful contemporary aesthetic from the perfectly groomed front yard to the tropical landscape with bamboo Zen garden with fountain with room for a pool.The covered rear patio offers a shaded place to sip coffee or perhaps you would prefer to enjoy a fine glass of wine while soaking in the sunset from the entertainment seating area on the dock. The sunsets across the water are simply a daily reminder of your fortune. Blind Pass is a deep sailboat waterway with nearby, bridge-free access to the Gulf of Mexico. Situated on a very wide portion of the pass, you only see the dolphins & boaters, not the neighbors across the canal. Floor plan, Elevation Certificate, seawall inspection (ready for a pool if you prefer), and receipts/warranties are available. Located on TripAdvisor's #1 Beach, this home is convenient to dozens of restaurants, shops and walking distance to the open air markets of Corey Ave & Horan Park.
