        <title>Buy Beverly Hills Hotel Inspired Destin Vacation Home</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
This opulent six-bedroom vacation home named &quot;The Beverly&quot; is aptly located at 95 Hollywood St in Miramar Beach. This fashionable locale is only a short stroll away from the gated neighborhood access to the sugary white shoreline of Frangista Beach. &quot;The Beverly&quot; is a popular vacation rental home with an annual gross income of $192,000 in 2022.





Frangista Beach is an exclusive residential community in an acclaimed master plan development that is so stunning it was featured in Coastal Living Magazine and shown on HGTV. This highly sought-after location is right off the unique palm-lined portion of Scenic Gulf Drive in Miramar Beach, just east of Holiday Road. Besides the beautiful beach, residents and guests of this exclusive neighborhood have access to a lushly landscaped tropical oasis with a gated community swimming pool and patio. However, you don't have to go that far for refreshing good times since this gracious home has its own sparkling private swimming pool. This landscaped area is studded with palm trees and other tropical plantings near a gated parking area that can accommodate eight cars. This two-story home's exteriors feature a charming Old Florida design style with a breezy second-story wraparound balcony for entertainment that overlooks the pool. The interiors have been completely renovated, comfortably furnished, and lavishly decorated to resemble privileged residences at the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles.





Stairs off the first-floor guest quarters lead to the open living, dining, and kitchen area featuring an elegant vintage modern nautical look. This sunny room, highlighted by windows and a glass door leading out to the furnished balcony that overlooks the pool, provides a spacious setting. Two fashionable royal blue cloth armchairs and a flamingo-pink couch sit beneath a wall adorned with giant banana plant leaves, providing a distinctive tropical look. They face a large wall-mounted flatscreen TV for entertainment. A round shiny beaten-brass cocktail table and a whimsical golden manatee sculpture table with a glass top provide unique decorative placements for your favorite drinks.





The bright open kitchen includes state-of-the-art brushed stainless steel appliances, including a large French cabinet-style refrigerator freezer. White quartz countertops include a wide entertainment bar with five brass framed regal blue contemporary raised chairs for fun wining and dining space. A kitchen island includes matching seats for two more.





The open dining room on the other side of the kitchen features a wall of windows and another accent wall with giant banana leaf patterns centered upon an antique gild-framed mirror. A handsome dark hardwood table flanked by six spindle rail-backed chairs with navy blue vinyl seats sits beneath a rectangular glittering crystal glass light fixture. A modern crescent-shaped glass-topped side table with a horizontal decorative brass frame includes a sparkling vase with palmetto fronds beneath a large postcard photo showcasing the Beverly Hills Hotel. A half bath that serves as a powder room is completely adorned with whimsically stylish pink flamingo wallpaper.





The primary bedroom off the living area is decorated with colorful abstract art. It has a queen size bed with a plush turquoise headboard. Two handsome dark rich, hardwood bedside tables have modern white and brass tubular-based lamps.





A private ensuite bath with a walk-in shower includes double vanity sinks, white cabinetry highlighted by brass handles, and two unique wire-rimmed mirrors.





Nearby a warm cottage-styled bedroom with white furnishings is accented by a salmon-pink tufted headboard and a vintage Lincoln Continental photo above it.





The ensuite bath with a walk-in shower has a vanity that faces a mirror and a sky-blue wall with over a dozen 3D brass butterflies hovering around it.





This home was designed for entertaining with a sunny game room living area and multiple guest quarters on the first floor with easy access to the pool. It has a chic vintage coastal-styled look with a tufted dove gray couch beneath a wall with photos of the original Beverly Hills Hotel and other nostalgic Hollywood images. Two adjacent turquoise-colored scallop-backed chairs have navy blue and white striped pillows that match a decorative rug in front of the couch. Decorative accouterments include a giant framed pink flamingo, three suspended diamond-shaped wall mirrors, and a tall white vase showcasing feathery Pom Pom grass tops. A large wall-mounted flatscreen TV with a gaming connection and a foosball table provide fun entertainment. Nearby is a convenient wet bar with a white cabinet, a deep sink with a gooseneck brass faucet, and a wine cooler. Two suspended glass shelves with colorful art and martini glasses are accented by a gleaming blue-toned brick backsplash in a classic herringbone pattern.





Two bedrooms off this living area feature different individual styles. One has a charming white cottage look with a brushed brass headboard and unique palm-patterned wallpaper.





The other has a vintage-contemporary look with a tufted bed bench along with a bed attired in pink that sits below a framed photo of a flamingo against a teal blue wall.





At the end of the hallway is a sunny, colorfully coordinated bunk room with four beds, a crane sculpture lamp, tropical prints, and some beachy appointments. A wall-mounted flatscreen TV provides nighttime viewing pleasure.





Two full hallway baths serve the guest quarters and provide convenient powder rooms on this level. One features a handsome, rich hardwood vanity highlighted with eight gold metal drawer handles and a floor-to-ceiling glass-walled walk-in shower. The other bath across from this one has a tub-shower combination and a lovely green cottage-style cabinet vanity with a white surface.





Besides everything else, as you probably know, real estate value is about location with a capital &quot;L&quot;. This outstanding locale in a fashionable residential enclave is close to the sugary shoreline and only a short stroll away from two popular restaurants. The laid-back Whale's Tail restaurant towards the east where a friendly open volleyball game is usually going on has sandwiches, savory snacks, and drinks. The vibrant, colorful Key West-styled Pompano Joe's restaurant towards the west is known for great seafood and craft cocktails. Other great gulf-front restaurants with friendly beach bars, grocery stores, and bargain shopping for world-class designer goods at the famous Silver Sands Premium Outlets are just minutes away. A championship golf course and professional tennis courts are also close by and available for public play at the Seascape Resort. An abundant array of great restaurants, bars with live musical entertainment, unique shopping adventures, outdoor concerts, fun year-round festivals, and exciting seasonal firework celebrations are also a fairly short distance away at Sandestin Golf &amp; Beach Resort. These delightful diversions are found at the enchanting French Quarter-inspired Village of Baytowne Wharf and the swank, tropically landscaped Grand Boulevard town center of Sandestin.





This amazing six-bedroom dream vacation home and lucrative rental investment property with 2,200 square feet is listed for $1,695,000. This comes in very value-priced at $770.45 per square foot.

Emerald Waters is an exclusively small three-story-tall Mediterranean-styled enclave with only thirty-six condo units.

It provides a wonderful opportunity to purchase your Forever Vacation Home, lucrative rental investment property, or a little bit of both





This stately beach manor, also known as A Shore Thing, has been on a profitable vacation rental program with our highly esteemed Ocean Reef Resorts property management division. It comes beautifully furnished and ready for immediate use. It already boasts over $205,000 in gross rental income for the current year.

Besides the staircase, an elevator conveniently connects to each floor for easy accessibility.





Frangista Beach is an exclusive residential enclave in a Delos Master Plan Development that is so stunning it was featured in Coastal Living Magazine and shown on HGTV when first created. The highly sought locale in Miramar Beach is just east of Holiday Road on the unique palm-lined portion of Scenic Gulf Drive. This residential community includes a tropical oasis of sorts with a privately gated swimming pool and patio. It is a privileged place that features many custom-built homes, but the “best of the best” are situated right beside the crystalline white beach, and this is one of them.





Three levels of open verandas provide stunning panoramic 180-degree views of the glistening coastline. Steps lead down to your private beach below, where you may luxuriate in the glowing gulf or take leisurely strolls along the sugary shore. You also have the excellent option to take a refreshing dip in the private Plunge Pool on the beach level veranda, which looks across the sensational seascape. Each one of these comfortably furnished verandas invites you to experience the stellar views while enjoying your favorite drinks and listening to the soothing sounds of the surf.





The first floor includes a Guest Bedroom with an elegant four-poster queen-sized bed, a seating area, and a dresser with a flatscreen TV. It also features a full bath and a convenient Wet Bar since this bedroom has direct access to the beach veranda with the Plunge Pool.

The up-to-date kitchen features brushed stainless steel appliances, glass front custom cabinetry, and sleek black granite-topped counters. A countertop bar with seating to serve drinks and appetizers is also provided.





A handsomely furnished Guest Bedroom on this floor with a queen-sized bed, dresser, and flatscreen TV has access to a full hall bath that doubles as a powder room.





The lavish top floor Master Suite spans the Gulf side with a private romantic balcony to enjoy heavenly gulf views. The full moon casts its silvery shimmering light above the gulf during the summer months, while spectacular sunsets occur from Thanksgiving thru Mardi Gras. A regal four-poster king-sized bed provides views of the gulf through a triple set of double glass doors. It faces an armoire that houses visual entertainment and two beautifully patterned armchairs that provide comfortable seating.





The ensuite luxury bath features double vanity sinks, a walk-in shower, and a jetted spa tub adorned with Travertine marble.





Another lovely bedroom on this level looks out onto the palm-lined drive with a Juliet window balcony and has access to another full bath. It displays a cheerful countenance with sunny yellow walls, creamy white cottage-style furnishings, and a queen-sized bed.





This outstanding location on the sugary shoreline places you only a short beach stroll away from two restaurants. The laid-back Whale’s Tail restaurant towards the east, where a friendly open volleyball game usually takes place, has sandwiches, savory snacks, and drinks. The vibrant, colorful Key West-style Pompano Joe’s restaurant towards the west is known for great seafood along with craft cocktails.

        <title>2 Pairs of Frangista Beach Homes for Sale</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
When Frangista Beach first debuted back in 2000, the Master Plan Development was so stunning it was televised on HDTV and written about in Coastal Living Magazine.  It is now among the most precious treasured settings along Scenic Gulf Drive in Destin’s Miramar Beach. This upscale residential community has a private beach access and a lushly landscaped oasis that features a gated community pool courtyard set amongst tropical plants. This serene secluded area includes a sheltered patio that is adorned with columned arbors and includes bathroom facilities with showers.



The premier part of this community is lined with towering palm trees that line this part of the drive paralleling the coast. These homes represent the crème de la crème of Frangista Beach. They all have a neoclassic stately design with formal columned porticos or charming covered balconies. Now two pairs of properties are offered for sale on each side of this prestigious promenade of beautiful beach homes.


1823 and 1827 Scenic Gulf Drive (also known collectively as Port Royal) sit side by side in one stately residence overlooking the glorious gulf. There are a total of eight bedrooms and eight full baths encompassed within 5,000 square feet. The stunning Delos floor plan was built by the original developer for his own family’s personal use back in 2007.



Since that time it has been recently refurbished and professionally completed new with designer furnishings, which are included in the purchase price. Remodeled baths include larger spa tubs, showers, expanded closets and ample shelving. The kitchen features gleaming state of the arts stainless steel appliances. There are built-in bars in the living areas, gorgeous crown molding, rich hardwoods and tile flooring. An expanded Splash Pool was redone on one of the beach balconies. This home is priced at $3,199,000, which is below the appraised property value.  Both properties have a strong, established vacation rental history.



Across the street at 1850 and 1860 Scenic Gulf Drive are two single family homes that are both on a vacation rental program as well and have a combined annual gross of $275,000. They are located directly across from the gated beach access and are among the most popular rental properties off the beach in Frangista Beach due to their location and individual amenities. They have a combined total of 7,328 square feet with 11 bedrooms and 13 baths. The owner wishes to sell them both at the same time, ready to go furnished for rentals at $2,999,000. You could actually keep one for personal use and rent out the other for investment income if you so desired.



They each have covered balcony porches that span a combined 1,000 square feet across the second and third floor levels with a glimpse of the gulf in the distance and a splash pool out back. The first encompasses 3,460 square feet with five bedrooms with four en suite baths.  The second house is larger with 3,864 square feet and six bedrooms with full baths en suite. This home was designed for larger families with more living space and a kitchen with two refrigerators, two dishwashers, two laundry rooms and two Master Bedroom Suites.


These Frangista Beach properties for sale are unique and will not be on the market for long so call our Ocean Reef Real Estate office today for a professional consultation and to receive more detailed information at (877) 392-6085.
