This outstanding Scenic 30A location is steps away from the sugary shoreline and the Barbados community swimming pool. It features a large oval-shaped wading pool at the end of a lovely landscaped sun patio, an adjoining rectangular swimming pool, and convenient restroom facilities. Rosemary Beach is a highly privileged and charming Dutch West Indies-styled coastal village. It serves as a popular beach destination among “the rich and famous” due to the idyllic lifestyle it offers. Although completed in recent years, it distinctively resembles classic colonial-styled settlements with stepped gable rooftops, walled courtyards, and stately bearings. A long, lush lawn serves as a village green where outdoor concerts, family games, art shows, fun festivals, and seasonal firework celebrations are held. The soaring dune topped views of the glistening jewel-toned gulf waters are heavenly. This is especially true as you walk down to the Western Green village beach access point from Barret Square on 30A. As it meanders toward the bright white beach below, the street is filled with specialty shops, fashion boutiques, cafes, and upper-level townhomes. This serene setting makes you feel like you are somewhere in Europe instead of on the Emerald Coast. Rosemary Beach was designed to be entirely walkable due to its intimate size. Many swimming pools, tennis courts, and a fitness center in the village are available for residents to use, along with the beautiful beach.

This magnificent manor was created by the renowned Boheme Design Group and beautifully built by Galvas Construction.
