Set squarely in the heart of Seagrove Beach, this seven-bedroom retreat has been thoughtfully reimagined and expanded into a multi-generational getaway framed by sweeping gulf and lake views. The transformation is evident throughout, pairing a well-considered floor plan with an easy, harmonious coastal palette -- the kind of luxury that never announces itself, contemporary, unhurried, and effortlessly livable. Across three levels, the home gives everyone room to spread out. The ground floor features a private lock-off with three guest bedrooms, a living room, and a brand-new kitchenette anchored by a quartz-topped dining island. It's a self-contained retreat with direct ground-floor access and a shaded porch made for slow alfresco mornings. Hardwood floors and shiplap walls echo the landscape just beyond the door, while multiple covered porches and an outdoor shower encourage easy outdoor living. The second floor is where the home comes together. The main living and dining spaces flow seamlessly onto an expansive wraparound deck, while floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding glass doors frame views of the Gulf of Mexico and the untouched expanse of Eastern Lake. The kitchen is built for a full house, with quartz countertops, a fresh tile backsplash, KitchenAid appliances, and ample space to gather. This level also includes a charming bunk room, an additional guest bedroom, and a full bath conveniently located off the living area. The third floor serves as a private retreat, featuring the primary suite and an additional guest bedroom, both with ensuite baths, along with a conveniently located laundry area. At the top of the home, two handsome guest suites open onto an upper balcony where gulf and lake views stretch uninterrupted from first light to last. It's a home designed for the rhythm of a large gathering -- coming together for meals and conversation, then retreating to a private corner of one's own. There's generous storage for beach gear and a private rear yard with an outdoor shower for rinsing off the day. The water is closer than you'd think, just 12 steps from public beach access for a sunrise swim or an evening walk along the white sand. For the more adventurous, the rare coastal dune lake nearby offers opportunities for kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, and exploring a stretch of shoreline that remains genuinely unspoiled. When the sun goes down, Seaside, Florida, Watersound, and Rosemary and Alys Beaches are all within easy reach, each offering its own blend of dining, boutique shopping, and entertainment.
