An exceptional WaterColor property, with all the trappings of a custom built home, welcome you to 459 Western Lake Drive. This large and tranquil home, conveniently located close to town center, was meticulously constructed replete with amenities. Spanning 3 stories served by an elevator, and a lookout tower, the home has no shortage of space. The main house features a master suite on the first level, as well as two additional guest rooms, and a bunk-style bedroom room for 3 or more. On arrival to the second level is a large kitchen and breakfast area. A small balcony off of the kitchen is outfitted with a gas grill. Continuing through the second level, there are two formal dining areas and a large open living space. The screened porch features one of two fireplaces for the home, and extends the houses entertaining area -especially for those classic beach evenings. Off of the main living space is an office retreat, with its own balcony and private views of nature. A half bath and a wet bar give versatility to the already generous entertaining space. A full bath on the 3rd floor, just off of the homes private theater, means additional guests will be comfortable using the bonus room for sleeping when needed. Serene northerly views of Western Lake from the 3rd and 4th level add to the ambiance and experience in this enviable resort home. A carriage house suite with a private bedroom, separate living room, and full kitchen round out the indoor living of the property. While, immediate access to walking trails and a large rear deck mean there is so much more to this home than its high ceilings, master-level carpentry, and endless spaces.
This property is $3.7M more than the Median Sold Price and $435/SqFt more than other homes in Santa Rosa Beach, FL.
