At the mouth of Buck Bayou on Choctawhatchee Bay, this beautifully renovated Santa Rosa Beach bayfront home offers the rare combination of deep-water boating, coastal single level design, and a peaceful waterfront setting just minutes from the beaches of 30A and the amenities of Sandestin®.
Situated on water frontage with approximately 6' of water depth much of the year, the property features a private dock with boat lift, 2 jet ski lifts, creating an ideal setup for boating, fishing, paddleboarding, and sunset cruising on Choctawhatchee Bay.
Inside, the home was extensively renovated with a full interior transformation that blends coastal elegance with thoughtful craftsmanship. Reclaimed wood flooring sourced from a Kentucky distillery flows throughout, complemented by custom trim, crow molding, and beautifully updated kitchens and baths.
The open living area captures stunning bay views through oversized windows, anchored by a fireplace with pecky cypress mantle and a custom wet bar designed for entertaining. The chef's kitchen features granite countertops, stainless appliances, custom cabinetry, and a reclaimed hickory island top, creating a warm and inviting gathering space overlooking the water.
The primary suite is a retreat in it's self with sitting area, view, gas fireplace and stunning ensuite bath and all bedrooms feature custom closet systems. The updated bathrooms with Carrera marble counters, and upgraded lighting and fixtures, offer comfort and style throughout the home.
Major system upgrades throughout provide peace of mind, including a variable-speed HVAC system, spray-foam insulation for energy efficiency, whole-house water filtration, updated electrical service with surge protection, and natural gas service with tankless hot water.
Outdoor living is the best! A spacious backyard shaded by mature oaks leads to the waterfront deck and dock, creating a private setting to enjoy sunrises/sunsets over the bay, boating adventures, and precious moments watching dolphins and coastal wildlife.
With its tranquil waterfront setting, and the home's location, it is perfect for enjoying the beach life:
" 3 miles to Grand Boulevard and grocery shopping
" 3.5 miles to Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort® golf, tennis, and marina
" 2.5 miles to Sacred Heart Hospital
" 4.8 miles to Topsail Hill Preserve State Park beaches and trails
Offering deep-water access, extensive renovations, and a prime Santa Rosa Beach bayfront location, 285 Turquoise Beach is a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of Emerald Coast waterfront living.
