**CHARMING GOLF COURSE COTTAGE WITH WRAP-AROUND PORCH, GAZEBO & PEACEFUL NATURE VIEWS -- NO HOA!** Some homes just have a special feeling, and this is one of them! Nestled among MATURE TREES on a beautifully landscaped .32-ACRE GOLF COURSE LOT in desirable BLUEWATER BAY, this charming COUNTRY COTTAGE-STYLE HOME offers the kind of peaceful setting that's becoming harder to find. Meticulously maintained and lovingly cared for by the SAME OWNERS FOR 41 YEARS, this 4-BEDROOM, 2.5-BATH home offers 2,122 square feet of comfortable living space, timeless character, and beautiful views of nature from nearly every angle. The FULL WRAPAROUND PORCH WITH ATTACHED GAZEBO is truly something special! Imagine starting your mornings with coffee, listening to the birds, or spending quiet afternoons enjoying the surrounding gardens and golf course views. The expansive .32-acre lot is framed by mature trees, colorful landscaping, and lush green lawn, creating a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquility. Inside, a WALL OF WINDOWS AND GLASS DOORS across the living room brings the outdoors in, filling the space with natural light and showcasing the beautiful backyard. A WOOD-BURNING FIREPLACE adds warmth and character, while LUXURY VINYL PLANK FLOORING THROUGHOUT means NO CARPET anywhere in the home! The kitchen features solid oak cabinetry, solid-surface countertops, and plenty of storage. A separate FORMAL DINING ROOM offers flexibility for a HOME OFFICE... sitting room, or whatever suits your lifestyle. The FIRST-FLOOR PRIMARY SUITE features a BEAUTIFULLY REMODELED BATHROOM with double vanities, a spacious walk-in shower, custom cabinetry, and a charming CLAWFOOT SOAKING TUB. Three additional bedrooms provide plenty of space for guests, hobbies, or family. The upstairs bathroom features a convenient layout, with one bedroom offering its own PRIVATE VANITY AREA and the other two bedrooms sharing a SEPARATE VANITY AREA, both with access to the central tub, shower, and toilet. An additional 8' x 5' FINISHED, AIR-CONDITIONED STORAGE ROOM upstairs provides valuable extra space for seasonal items, storage, or organization. Another feature you might not notice is what's BEHIND THE WALLS! Unlike homes with vinyl siding installed directly over minimal exterior backing, this home has PLYWOOD SHEATHING BENEATH THE VINYL SIDING around the entire exterior. This additional layer of construction helps reduce outside noise and provides an added barrier against heat and cold, contributing to a quieter, more comfortable home year-round. Additional highlights include a ROOF APPROXIMATELY 5 YEARS OLD, underground irrigation supplied by a DEEP WELL designed to avoid staining the home's exterior, a TWO-CAR GARAGE, and driveway parking for FOUR ADDITIONAL VEHICLES. And here's another bonus -- NO HOA! Bluewater Bay offers an exceptional collection of recreational amenities, including a MARINA, GOLF COURSE, SWIMMING POOLS, TENNIS CENTER, PICKLEBALL COURTS, and the popular SCHOONERS RESTAURANT. These amenities are available through SEPARATE MEMBERSHIPS OR FEES, allowing you to choose and pay for the activities you'll actually enjoy. Conveniently located near the MID-BAY BRIDGE, with Destin shopping, dining, and the sugar-white sand beaches of CRYSTAL BEACH approximately 15 minutes away. This is more than a house -- it's a place to slow down, enjoy the outdoors, and feel right at home. BE SURE TO SEE THE PHOTOS OF THE WRAPAROUND PORCH, GAZEBO, AND BEAUTIFUL BACKYARD!

Coffee in the sunroom. Through the new windows, the fenced backyard waits for a game of catch. A ball goes over someone's head. Laughter follows. Another slow morning, and nowhere to be. The street ends in a cul-de-sac. Inside, the living room opens up high above you. A mural on the wall gives your guests something to ask about. Dinner is on. Someone pulls up a seat at the breakfast bar. Someone else steals a taste. The conversation lasts longer than the meal. Later, the fireplace. A blanket. The kind of evening you do not want to end. At the end of the day, a long soak in the jetted tub. The house goes still. A little time to yourself. Tomorrow, coffee in that same chair. It already feels like yours.
