Einfamilienhaus In Santa Rosa Beach

Some homes impress with their size; others distinguish themselves by how thoughtfully they were built. This exceptional waterfront estate accomplishes both. Spanning 1.33 gated acres with 110 feet of deep-water frontage on Choctawhatchee Bay, the property offers more than 8,600 square feet of beautifully appointed living space with six bedrooms and seven bathrooms where refined design is matched by remarkable structural integrity. Conceived as a legacy residence rather than a speculative build, every detail reflects an unwavering commitment to craftsmanship, longevity and the waterfront lifestyle.

Originally renovated down to the studs after its 2006 purchase, the home underwent another complete transformation in 2020 as the owners expanded and reimagined the property for generations to come. Every major system, structural component, electrical, plumbing, roofing, windows, doors, insulation and HVAC was replaced or upgraded to current building standards. The addition was engineered with extraordinary precision, supported by approximately 100 pilings driven 30 feet into the ground and anchored with massive reinforced concrete caps tied directly into the slab foundation. Designed by Terry Anderson of Anderson Engineering, the result is a residence built with remarkable strength, longevity and peace of mind. Inside, soaring ceilings, expansive walls of glass and oversized windows frame panoramic views across the bay while filling the home with natural light. A dramatic foyer introduces an inviting entertainment space complete with a custom corner bar, ideal for hosting movie nights, game days or large gatherings. Rich shiplap accents, custom LED ceiling lighting and a wood-burning fireplace create warmth throughout the lower level.

The main living area upstairs embraces the waterfront setting with wide-plank wood flooring, rustic wood beam details and an open-concept design centered around a striking feature wall with a linear fireplace and mounted television overlooking sparkling bay views. Since its completion, the home has been professionally redecorated by an interior designer, bringing a refined, cohesive aesthetic that perfectly complements its clean coastal architecture.

Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the kitchen features quartzite countertops, two oversized islands, a six-burner Wolf range, built-in microwave, ice maker and three dishwashers. Frosted glass cabinetry, a sleek tile backsplash and subtle cove lighting elevate the design, while an adjoining butler’s pantry with beverage refrigerators and an additional microwave provides exceptional convenience for hosting on any scale.

The primary suite serves as a luxurious private retreat with its own exterior entrance, custom built-in dresser and an expansive walk-in closet illuminated with integrated LED lighting. The spa-inspired bath offers a dramatic ceiling-fill soaking tub, oversized dual-head shower and floating double vanity with elegant underlighting.

The waterfront setting becomes an extension of the home itself. Step onto the expansive second-floor terrace before descending the broad staircase to the spacious poolside patio designed for dining, relaxing and entertaining against an uninterrupted backdrop of Choctawhatchee Bay. For boating enthusiasts, the private dock is complemented by a rare DEP deep-water lease agreement that permits the future construction of a substantial covered boathouse, creating an exceptional opportunity not commonly found along the bay.

Perfectly positioned along the bay, this remarkable property offers the privacy of a secluded waterfront retreat while remaining just minutes from the Emerald Coast’s sugar-white beaches, championship golf courses, full-service marinas and renowned dining destinations. Whether spending the day boating on the bay, exploring nearby gulf waters, enjoying waterfront restaurants or relaxing on the beach, this location places the very best of the Emerald Coast within easy reach.
