Better than new and move-in ready! Destin home taken down to the studs and completely renovated with quality craftsmanship--not a flip. In 2023, nearly every system was replaced or upgraded, including insulation, high-efficiency HVAC, a tankless gas water heater, updated electrical and lighting, and refreshed plumbing and fixtures--so it lives like new while still feeling warm and homey. Inside you'll find quartz countertops, custom cabinetry with custom wood shelving, tile showers, LED recessed lighting, durable LVP flooring, and a gas range. The home is also equipped with natural gas hookups for outdoor grilling and a future whole-home generator. Additional improvements include updated windows, new hurricane-rated sliding glass doors (2025), and a new roof (2024), providing added value, efficiency, and peace of mind. Bring your boat or RV! The property offers ample parking to accommodate all your recreational needs. Even better for boating enthusiasts, the home is located less than a mile from the public boat launch, and the City of Destin offers a free boat trailer parking pass, making it even easier to enjoy everything the Emerald Coast waterways have to offer. The oversized backyard is truly something special, featuring mature shade trees, producing citrus trees, and a peaceful, low-maintenance setting that feels like your own private retreat. Every detail of this home reflects the care, craftsmanship, and thoughtful improvements that have gone into making it so special.
