This contemporary custom-built home sits high and dry on an 80-foot high bluff overlooking a beautiful 119-foot private beach. From the elevated deck, it delivers expansive views of Escambia Bay, Garcon Point, Gulf Breeze and Garcon Point Bridge. This meticulously kept home occupies a two-acre lot with steps leading down to the golden sand and the private beach below. This single-story residence's brick and cedar construction echoes the mature magnolias, live oaks, pines and black walnut trees scattered throughout the fenced backyard. Lack of space will never pose a problem at this five-bedroom, three-and-a-half bath home, boasting a three-car garage and a full-height attic above. Floors throughout the home are covered with stunning 24-inch Italian tiles, while the kitchen, bathrooms and wet bars boast a total of 1,500 square feet of sleek granite countertops. Fully renovated, the home features a flowing open floor plan that is designed for large-scale entertaining or family living. Beyond the living room and dining room, the huge kitchen has island seating for eight. Custom cabinetry, high-end GE Profile appliances and a gas cooktop with a retractable hood make this a true chef’s domain. The butler’s pantry keeps everything neatly stored out of sight. Matching custom-built cabinets and strategically placed skylights continue into the great room. A large den allows everyone to find their own private space for reading or watching TV. Relax in front of the gas fireplace, pour drinks from the wet bar and savor the stunning views of the shimmering bay. For outdoor living, it’s hard to beat the refurbished deck, accessed from the den through multiple sets of French doors. It comes with its own outdoor kitchen, refrigerator and rebuilt gas grill. Alternatively, take a dip in the 40,000-gallon screened pool, surrounded by a freshly painted deck. Retire for the night in the reconfigured master suite, which is a sanctuary of calm.
