        <title>Incredible Destin Deep Water Bayou Front Home for Sale</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Searching for your ultimate Dream Home that can also dock a big boat? They’re a rare find in Destin since other than some properties on Holiday Isle and a few harbor front homes, deep water dockage here is nearly nonexistent. The Gulf is out of the question, and most homes along Choctawhatchee Bay have shallow water near the shoreline. Although they may accommodate shallow bottomed boats and pontoons with a long dock, a big boat is too deep for such waters. People elsewhere who have big boats have to store them in pricey facilities when not in use.


However, this magnificent home at 134 West Country Club Drive in Destin’s well established prestigious Indian Bayou neighborhood does harbor big boatsThree words aptly describe this 4,238 square foot estate, which is “Opulent” “Majestic” and “Lavish” The private dock comes with a covered 20,000-pound boat lift that can berth boats and yachts. Within no time at all, you can cruise out of the bayou and enter a deep part of the bay and enter the Gulf side harbor in Destin. This Mediterranean styled villa graces almost half an acre of lushly landscaped grounds and includes three bedrooms along with three and one half luxury baths.


It has a very stately presence with an arched soaring columned entry flanked by tropical palms. Ornate beveled glass doors lead into the foyer, which features a stunning two-story cathedral ceiling, a contemporary starburst chandelier, and a regal staircase that leads up to an open landing. Travertine marble and luxurious hardwood flooring flow throughout the home.


A bright sunny open living area with a giant wall-mounted TV above a contemporary gas fireplace has a wall of double glass doors leading out to a palatial swimming pool.


It is crowned by a Hot Tub, adorned with columned pergolas, has a fireplace, an expansive patio, and a Wet Bar Grill area for entertaining. Steps lead down from the Pool Pergola to a grassy lawn with a raised walkway to the dock.


A modern state of the art kitchen features stainless steel appliances, floor to ceiling honey-toned custom cabinetry, sleek black granite countertops, and chic built-in wrap around seating.


A formal dining room with tall ceilings has a sunny window, while a hallway nearby includes two large glass fronts to feature a selection of fine wines.


The first floor Master Bedroom features an elegant tray ceiling, a spacious sitting area, office or den, and a lavish, luxurious en suite bath. The two Guest Bedrooms upstairs also feature full en suite luxury baths and are near a large Media Room with a Wet Bar, as well as a gigantic wall-mounted TV featuring a Surround Sound System.


A wall of glass doors that are heavily curtained for daytime theater use leads to a balcony overlooking the pool.


This amazing home is value-priced for $1,450,000, which averages $342.14 per square foot. Currently there are three other Indian Bayou homes for sale with docks from $1,379,000 with 3,553 square feet, $2,099,000 with 5,600 square feet and $2,995,000 with 6,887 square feet.

        <title>Destin Real Estate with a View</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
The most highly sought after properties in Destin are those that “have a view.” By “view” of course, we are talking about a waterfront property, but &quot;waterfront&quot; can be like comparing apples to oranges. What these properties do have in common is the fact that they are all on the water. However, they may be beside the beautiful beach, on the shores of the vast expanse of Choctawhatchee Bay, on a canal at Holiday Isle or on Destin’s harbor. Each type has its own special accouterments. So without further ado, let's take a look at the varietals of Destin Real Estate with a View


Beachfront Destin Real Estate





MLS 805941:  2988 Scenic Hwy 98


Homes on the shimmering bright crystalline beach in Destin are premier, prestigious properties and considered the ultimate location by many buyers. Residents can walk right out their back door to their own beautiful beach and plunge into the warm jewel-toned waters of the luminescent gulf. The panoramic vistas of the sparkling sensational scenery span out into the southern horizon. Besides the gorgeous views, you may also hear the soothing sounds of the surf. During the summer months, full moons rise over the gulf towards the east while during the winter the sun drops into the western waters in glorious heavenly fashion. In Destin beachfront properties extend from the western tip of Holiday Isle all the way down Scenic Highway 98 past the Crystal Beach neighborhood to the eastern side of prestigious Destiny, ending at the border of Miramar Beach. Since location determines demand, which also defines value, these homes are usually the most expensive.  Currently, there are 12 gorgeous beachfront homes for sale in Destin ranging in price from $998,999 for a three bedroom beach cottage* with 1,924 square feet ($519.23 per square foot) up to $4,599,000 ($1,009 per square foot) for a five-bedroom 4,558 square foot beachside villa. The average price of the twelve homes listed for sale comes in at $2,946,500 ($682.83 psf). Within the last 12 months, there have been six sales of beachfront homes ranging from $655,000 for a three bedroom 1,924 square foot cottage* up to $3,745,000 for a seven bedroom 5,632 square foot beach home with an average sale price at $2,400,000 ($611.43 psf).*NOTE: The three bedroom cottage with 1,924 square feet that sold last year for $655,000 is relisted at $998,999.


Bay Front Destin Real Estate





MLS 809499: 4501 Sawgrass Way


Bay front homes in Destin are also popular since Choctawhatchee Bay spans across three to five miles from the mainland. In a sense homes here have an island-like setting and lot sizes are almost always more significant than those on the beach. Unlike beachfront properties most of the houses on the bay have long docks for jet skis, pontoon and shallow-bottomed boats due to the low water depths. At night twinkling lights may be seen across the bay from the other side which provides enchanting views. Spectacular sunsets in the summer and full moon rises during the winter occur over the water here too but in the opposite season from the gulf. There are currently 14 Destin bayfront homes for sale ranging from $497,000 ($345.14 psf) for a three bedroom 1,440 square foot cottage up to $3,950,000 ($431.92 psf) for a seven bedroom 8,360 square foot mansion. The average list price stands at $2,118,214 which comes in at $464.19 per square foot. 21 Destin bay front homes sold within the past twelve months ranging from $549,000 for a two bedroom 1,510 square foot cottage up to $4,350,000 for an opulent 8,576 mansion with five bedrooms.  The average sale price closed at $1,565,916 at $372.77 per square foot.


Canal Front  Destin Real Estate





MLS 802252:  627 Gulf Shore Dr


These properties are made for boat lovers, and all of them are located on Holiday Isle. The Corps of Engineers built canals here when it was government land many decades ago which have decent depth even for large yachts. Almost all canal front homes in Destin include docks which are precious commodities since boat rental prices can be steep. Boats at this location are able to motor out onto the harbor and into the gulf or bay. The Destin Harbor borders Holiday Isle on the north side and the glistening jewel toned gulf runs along its southern shore. The only opening that connects Choctawhatchee Bay to the open gulf serves as its western boundary, so fishing vessels, sailboats and big yachts from many of these canal front homes are often seen skimming across the waters going back and forth.There are nine canal front homes for sale priced from $819,000 ($308.36 psf) for a four bedroom property with 2,656 square feet up to $3,580,000 ($300.51 psf) for a giant 11,913 square foot mansion with eleven bedrooms. The average list price is 1,929,100 which comes in at $403.43 per square foot. Within the past 12 months, there have been nine sales of canal front homes ranging from $625,000 for a three bedroom property with 2,101 square feet up to $1,779,000 for a five-bedroom home with 4,077 square feet with an average sale price of $1,131,142 coming in at $308.10 per square foot.


Harbor Front Destin Real Estate





MLS 803047:  617 Lagoon Dr


Destin’s harbor front homes also include docks for big boats and feature dazzling views of the gorgeous gulf in the distance since many of them are on a high sugary bluff along Harbor Boulevard with long staircases that connect to docks below. Some are directly on the harbor on the outer shores on Holiday Isle. This great convenient location is in the very heart of Destin placing residents a very short distance away from Harborwalk Village, which has a wide array of restaurants, waterfront bars, specialty shops, musical concerts, seasonal festivals and fireworks throughout the summer as well as on special holidays.Seven harbor front homes are currently listed for sale priced from $1,275,000 ($378.11 psf) for a 3,372 square foot home with four bedrooms up to $2,395,000 ($470.81 psf) for a brand new 5,087 square foot five bedroom home that’s under construction. The average list price is $1,492,167 at $432.17 per square foot. Five harbor front homes have sold and closed within the past 12 months ranging from $750,000 for a 2,195 square foot four bedroom home up to $2,695,000 for 4,935 square foot Mediterranean style mansion with four bedrooms. The average price closed at $1,324,000 for $416.57 per square foot.Contact our Ocean Reef Real Estate Office today at 877-392-6085 for a friendly professional consultation, detailed information, a complimentary comparative analysis of properties available and tour those you may want to see.

Locally Mr. Clary established the Indian Bayou Golf and Country Club along with the neighborhood nestled beside it, opened First National which was the first bank in Destin and was instrumental in establishing development in this area including the original Silver Beach. Their dream home which became this magnificent mansion was constructed with the very best of everything and a strict eye to detailing that still shows today. It is unparalleled in its historic grandeur and location. A long drive gracefully leads from the gate up to the classical columned double covered verandas that extend the full width of the house. The spacious interiors have a lot of beautiful formal detail including a large dining room with a sparkling vintage crystal chandelier. Each of the five big bedrooms is matched with accessibility to five full baths. A long room with over 1,000 square feet has a glass ceiling and houses the indoor Olympic sized swimming pool that is adorned with classic Greek statuary. It also includes a convenient bar and summer kitchen for creating savory appetizers and drinks to serve poolside. This historic, gracious, lovely stately Destin mansion and 3+ acre waterfront estate is being offered for $4,950.000.
