Description
This is the time to make your legacy estate here on 30A behind the gates of Watersound Beach. This four-bedroom, five-bath masterpiece occupies a premier corner lot just steps from a private boardwalk to the Gulf. Designed for both sophistication and comfort, the home offers 320 square feet of inviting outdoor living and timeless architectural charm framed by white picket fences and coastal porches. The main level presents a grand open concept living area anchored by a chef's kitchen featuring BlueStar & Sub-Zero appliances, bespoke KraftMaid cabinetry, and quartz countertops. The primary suite is a true retreat with a spa-inspired bath—complete with a walk-in shower, separate tile tub, dual vanity, and a boutique-style dressing closet.
Supplements: Three additional guest suites upstairs provide private accommodations, each with its own ensuite bath and walk-in closet. Approved renderings for a garage, carriage house, and private pool allow for future expansion, elevating this residence into your own legacy estate. Sold fully furnished, rental-ready, with projections nearing $180K annually, this property captures the essence of the 30A lifestyle.
