Supplements: deeded dock. This home isn't just about access--it's built for peace of mind and efficiency. Solid ICF (insulated concrete form) construction, a durable concrete tile roof, hurricane-rated windows, and a low-risk flood zone designation all contribute to lower insurance costs and long-term durability. Spray foam insulation keeps energy bills impressively low, so you can spend more on fuel for the boat instead of utilities. Inside, you'll find a beautifully updated interior with a coastal-modern feel. The kitchen features high-end granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, solid wood cabinetry with soft-close features, and stainless steel appliances--perfect for prepping the day's fresh catch. The living area offers 9-foot ceilings, crown molding, and built-in surround sound for relaxing after a day on the water. The first-floor master suite provides a private retreat with direct patio access--ideal for early morning coffee before heading out on the boat. The spa-like bathroom includes a large walk-in travertine shower with dual heads, double vanity, and a custom walk-in closet. Out back, unwind on your peaceful patio overlooking a natural buffer--perfect for grilling, entertaining, or simply enjoying the coastal breeze. Rinse off after a day on the water with the outdoor shower, then relax as the sun sets. Upstairs offers additional bedrooms with new carpet, ample natural light, and custom closet systems--ideal for guests or family who will undoubtedly want to visit your waterfront escape. Additional highlights include a deep, finished garage, security system wiring, paver driveway, gutters, and a well-maintained HVAC system. Whether you're an avid boater, fisherman, or just love life on the water, homes with private slips like this are exceptionally rare along the Emerald Coast. Launch your next adventure right from your backyard--this is more than a home, it's a boating lifestyle.
