Discover 30A Gulf-front living with unsurpassed privacy and seclusion. 60 Deer Lake Beach Drive is a rare and exceptional Gulf-front estate, boasting 3/4 of an acre with 1.5 miles of open beach to the east for the ultimate privacy. This beach estate provides serenity like no other. Deer Lake State Park sits as your direct eastern border neighbor, occupying one half mile of Gulf frontage that will never be built upon and the full mile of private community beach of WaterSound Beach follows.
The custom-built beach home was designed by renowned architect Walt Chancey and constructed by the notable firm Regal Stephens Construction. It is prominently situated as the most private end lot in the exclusive low-density, 6-home site community of Deer Lake Dunes.
The home is solid concrete with deep pilings ~35 ft. in the ground, synthetic decking, and hurricane-rated windows, lending low maintenance for Gulf front living. The pride of ownership is apparent the moment you step foot on the grounds. The home is offered unfurnished, though the inclusion is negotiable. With plentiful outdoor space, including three expansive Gulf-front decks and an easterly grilling patio, and an open floor plan commanding panoramic Gulf views, this home is perfect for entertaining. The home is 3-stories with luxurious finishes throughout.
The ground level offers two Gulf-front guest rooms, each with en-suite bathrooms, and a Gulf-front lounge area, all with direct access to the deck. Easily exit to the large sun deck along the Gulf-front to enjoy the beach and an upscale fire pit. The addition of a pool is an easy option. Stunning archways capture the picturesque Gulf views. There is also a laundry room with marble countertops, storage and access to the outdoor shower, which is aligned next to the Deer Lake Dunes boardwalk for easy beach access! The welcoming foyer houses an elevator, which accesses all three levels.
The second level features an open living and dining area, with glass spanning across the entire length of the home along with wrap-around windows to the east for panoramic views of the Gulf and Deer Lake State Park. Access an incredible Gulf-front terrace and enjoy outdoor dining to a cool beach breeze, or relax in one of the rocker chairs while taking in views.
Interior features include 10 foot ceilings, recessed lighting and surround sound, custom beamed ceilings, crown molding, built-in shelving and gas fireplace. The kitchen boasts an impressive view corridor and features custom cabinetry with antique mirrored glass and hardwood, a farmhouse-style sink and island complete with gas cooktop and custom hood.
There are granite countertops and breakfast bar, ice machine, refrigerated drawers and a large walk-in pantry. The breakfast bar is perfect for more casual dining but there is a dining area for eight surrounded by glass and exceptional views. Also located on the second level are two additional guest rooms, one with en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet, a powder room and additional balcony off the kitchen facing east.
The entire upper level is the master quarters, featuring a stunning Gulf-front suite and bathroom, exercise room, additional laundry room and morning kitchen. The master suite is complete with a gas fireplace and sitting area, and direct access to the private terrace.
The en-suite bathroom is phenomenal with a gorgeous soaking tub, double vanities, a separate walk-in shower and endless views of the Gulf and Deer Lake State Park. Feel like you are at the spa and unwind in luxury.
