A home where the water always takes center stage. This 2022 custom-built island residence offers the best Apalachicola Bay sunsets, year-round. Positioned for unobstructed western views, it captures glowing sunrises and moonsets. Oversized 3×6 hurricane rated casement windows frame the bay from nearly every room, blending protection, energy efficiency, and beauty. Inside, the open great room showcases coffered ceilings w/ stained pine inlay and crown molding adding rich dimension, while a ship lapped gas fireplace anchors the space with a live edge cypress mantle milled from Apalachicola River wood. The custom kitchen is a chefs delight, featuring maple cabinetry to the ceiling, seamless Brazilian granite counters, a large eat in island, 5 burner gas cooktop, ZLINE hood, and dual smart ovens – one an Advantium for speed and versatility. Two bay facing primary suites showcase private baths and sweeping views; a third bedroom and flex space add comfort for guests or an office. Every finish feels considered – wide plank LVP flooring, recessed dimmable lighting, and whisper quiet soundproof insulation. Built for longevity and health, the home includes steel ductwork, a full HALO air purification and dehumidification system, Purple Board drywall, attic spray foam insulation, and a 500 gal propane powered whole home generator. Outdoor living flows effortlessly with TimberTech decking, stainless cable railings, and a covered ground level retreat perfect for sunset cocktails. Additional highlights include Blueskin water barrier exterior, a 12 zone Rainbird irrigation system, and ample storage. Adjacent parcels are available, offering control of sightlines and the option to expand. Kayak from your shoreline into world class fishing waters or take a short golf cart ride – just a half mile south – to the soft white sands of the Gulf. This is island living refined: panoramic views, enduring quality, and easy elegance – crafted for those who want their waterfront dream to last.
