Just moments from the boardwalk and set in a remarkably private pocket of WaterSound Beach, this refined coastal retreat pairs serene dune and lake vistas with immediate access to community amenities. The setting is exceptional, framed by manicured green space at the rear, a pond across the street, and permanent views of Camp Creek Lake meeting the gulf's emerald horizon. Steps from the pool, outdoor lounge, and beach walkover, the home feels woven into its natural surroundings while offering the comforts of a full-time residence.Crafted with classic architectural details inside and out, the four-bedroom main home and detached one-bedroom carriage house create a rare, versatile offering. Two primary suites in the main home accommodate multigenerational living, while the carriage house complete with a full kitchen and private bath welcomes guests with its own sense of retreat. Throughout the residence, rich hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, and thoughtful built-ins elevate every space.
The upper-level great room rises beneath warm wood beams and opens to an expansive balcony where views stretch across dunes, lake, and gulf. A granite-clad kitchen with custom cabinetry, Viking appliances, and a breakfast bar anchors this gathering level, with a wet bar positioned nearby for effortless entertaining. A gas fireplace, recessed lighting, and coastal textures set a relaxed yet refined tone.
On the main level, the primary suite enjoys wooded privacy and a screened porch with a stairway leading to the upper balcony. Two additional ensuite bedrooms, including one flexed as a secondary living area, offer comfort for larger groups. The second-floor primary suite features soaring ceilings, gulf views, and a Juliette balcony perfectly placed for sunset.
The carriage house above the two-car garage provides a beautifully finished extension of the home, ideal for long-term guests or rental potential. With WaterSound Beach's gated security, private beach access, boardwalks, parks, and pools steps away, this beautifully maintained residence offers a prime location, a practical floor plan, and a setting that feels both rare and restorative.
