About 758 Seahorse Ave

Welcome to your Quintessential Florida Beach House. New Roof just installed in June 2024 & Fresh Paint throughout! Enjoy a Relaxed, Laid Back, Kick Off Your Shoes and Walk to the Beach Vibe... Quiet, unassuming beach casual; everything you need is here for the perfect second-home beach escape or primary residence... Delightful 2-story design provides both upper and lower decks, an elevated living area to enjoy the views/sunsets, tons of deck spaces front and back of the property. The SHOWSTOPPING PRIVATE BACKYARD OASIS is a coastal dream paradise - HUGE INGROUND POOL with paver patio throughout, privacy fenced in white vinyl, OUTDOOR KITCHEN, Screened Lanai Decks on both levels, OUTDOOR FIREPLACE, a Cabana area, a large Lock-out STORAGE BUILDING for all your beach gear, OUTDOOR SHOWER, room for kayaks and paddleboards...No HOA! Encompassing 3 Bedrooms, 3 Full Baths, two Living Areas (one up and one down), a ground floor bedroom/bath, and an upper level overlooking the pool (with a glimpse of the Gulf of Mexico) made for entertaining at the beach! The house interior has just been entirely repainted and lives large at 2088 SF, with an additional 700 SF of outdoor balcony/deck space! 758 Seahorse features an impressively large lot for added privacy at 0.23 acres; with plentiful parking on the extended length driveway; and even an electric Tesla charger. Significantly improved, this property benefits from many recent updates to include NEW ROOF coming this month, 2023 HVAC, 2021 water heater, new balconies 2018, pool liner 2016, all new windows/doors 2005, and electrical updated 2005. Easy-breezy maintenance inside and out! THE LIFESTYLE: We love sitting on the multiple decks; the whole house receives gorgeous sunlight and a nice ocean breeze. We love Okaloosa Island - the beach is so beautiful and its a great community. We love relaxing here with family with the close proximity to beach, the intracoastal waterway, and restaurants - a stroll to get a coffee and do a beach walk is always nice. Entertaining ... relaxation... exhale... the stress melts away... the simple pleasures of joy and happiness wrap themselves around you at the beach! Sunkissed skin, sandy feet, a long afternoon siesta in the hammock before walking over to the beach... hanging out on your pool deck or upper-level screened deck to catch a sunset, grill out or entertain in the well-equipped outdoor kitchen! Hang out around the pool deck; make smores in the fire pit/outdoor fireplace, dip in your pool, siesta at sunset, find the solitude at sunrise... THE VIBE: The upstairs living area receives sun all day long - its a calm, relaxing space to be in. I personally love it when the main living area is on the upper floor - I think it often gives an added feeling of retreating away from the world. Low density Okaloosa Island provides a 7-story height restriction on Gulf-front condos, so no overly crowded beaches or challenging beach access scenarios with the plentiful beach accesses. Just a short drive to Destin also. No short-term rentals on the north side of Santa Rosa Beach Blvd neighborhood section of the Island making for a peaceful more relaxed environment... away from the hustle and bustle, stride out on long leisurely walks or ride bikes along the sidewalks of Santa Rosa Blvd, and hit up the multiple public beach accesses on the The Island. So kick off your shoes and experience for yourself the world-famous pristine sparkling white sand, emerald waters, and a sought-after beachside community for biking, walking, and enjoying a plethora of nearby restaurants and amenities. The artsy downtown area of Fort Walton Beach is close by with one-off independent stores, restaurants, and entertainment. Step back into your simple beach life era ... no shoes, no problem! Make memories, build a legacy, invest in whats important, a life well lived!
