A charming two-bedroom cottage at 28 Blue Fish St in Blue Mountain Beach includes 858 square feet of living space and a prime location. It is still available for backup offers on a pending contract with contingencies, so time is of the essence to make a move! The home is extremely well-priced at $579,000 for the purchase of a residence in this highly sought-after location off Scenic 30A. The listed price comes in at only $674.83 per square foot. Other home listings in Blue Mountain Beach range from $664,000 for a 1,081-square-foot home with three bedrooms to $5,750,000 for a gulf-front mansion with six bedrooms. These list prices come in at an average of $822.84 per square foot.
This single-story solid brick home includes a metal roof and has been freshly painted white. It has a breezy open rooftop sun deck accessed from an open outdoor staircase. There is also a deep carport on the side for a vehicle, golf cart, or other items. The coastal dune top village of Blue Mountain Beach boasts award-winning beaches with the highest elevation above the entire Gulf of Mexico. Hundreds of years ago, it got its name from Spanish explorers mapping the gulf coast from far offshore to avoid being attacked by Native Americans. They noticed what they thought was a “blue mountain” that rose high above the “beach” on each side and gave it this name. These explorers were actually seeing the tall towering hills along the shoreline, which were covered with indigenous Blue Lupine flowers. These forested hills rise above the gulf and wrap around a rare precious coastal dune lake. Lakes of this kind are a true natural treasure found hardly anywhere else in the world. Besides here along Scenic 30A, they are only found in Madagascar, New Zealand, Australia, and the state of Oregon. Creek-like tributaries across the sugary dunes connect artisan spring-fed waters from the lake to the salted gulf. Ongoing tidal action between the two creates a magical exotic mix creating a natural habitat for abundant wildlife, fish, and waterfowl.
This special little residential hamlet is quite enchanting, with a few locally owned restaurants, friendly bars, a bakery, an old-fashioned ice cream parlor, some specialty shops, and local art galleries. The oldest health food store in Walton County, called For the Health of It, features organic produce, a juice bar, local honey, vitamins, CBD oils, Homeopathic remedies, scented soaps, and massage therapy. This locale is also near other coastal villages like Santa Rosa Beach and Seaside, featuring restaurants, beach bars, fashion boutiques, specialty shops, art galleries, amphitheater concerts, and fun seasonal festivals.
The open living, dining, and kitchen area includes multiple windows accentuating a spacious sunny look. Rustic beamed ceilings in the living area and parchment-toned tile flooring flow throughout. The living area includes a large, ornately adorned Franklin stove for heating, and an electric central HVAC system is in place.
A wide thick beamed portal provides entrance into the open kitchen with room for a dining table. It includes white appliances and cottage-styled cabinetry.
Take the hallway back to the large primary bedroom and guest bedroom. The primary bedroom encompasses 260 square feet.
A full hall bath has a marble tiled tub shower combination that serves both bedrooms. An additional half bath nearby is provided as a convenient powder room.
The home sits on a large corner lot partially enclosed by a railed fence with well-established maple trees, live oaks, tropical palmettos, and palm trees. The current house configuration can potentially provide many opportunities to put on an addition. At this price, for this sought-after location near Scenic 30A, you could also complete a teardown and build your own custom home.
