Property Description
There is really something special about this place. You can't feel it from looking at the photos. You need to stand here in person and see the view of the beach while listening to the sound of the birds and see nature all around you. From the rustle of the palm trees in the breeze to the beautful chirping of the birds all around it has to be experienced to appreciate. As you pull into the drive look around you at the fruit trees and foliage all around the property. The owner has used this space wisely to take advantage of nature and the climate here. It feels like you have entered a different world. At the main entry upstairs you enter into a large welcoming space with lots of bonus areas. To your right as you enter you have a large open kitchen and a pantry plus a combined living room and dining area that has a fireplace in the corner for cold nights. There is great natural light filtering in all around, and doors opening out onto multiple deck spaces. To your left of the entry you will follow a hallway to two bedrooms and two full baths, plus a large utility room with lots of storage and even a fold down ironing board. Just inside the main entry you will see the wide stairs that take you up to two master suites. One of the upstairs suites includes its own private dressing area connected to the bathroom, adding convenience and privacy. The other has a full bath just two steps out into a small hallway. Both suites have their own sitting area looking out to a beautiful view of the gulf. There is also a big bonus space on this level that makes you imagine all the ways you could use it. The fresh paint throughout brings in a clean, bright feel, and the multiple porches offer spots to sit outside and enjoy the breeze. A loft sits at the top of the home, featuring a set of large fixed windows that create a quiet, elevated place to sit, read, paint or just soak in the natural surroundings. Access to the attic is tucked behind a door on this level. The under-house area adds even more flexibility, with bunk-style rooms, a bathroom, workshop space and open areas for storage or hobbies. This level is considered bonus space and it provides many options for guests, gear, and everyday island life. Total measurements of this bonus space equal 1525 square feet. This home is located in the DeSoto Landing gated subdivision, a peaceful neighborhood known for its quiet streets and well-kept surroundings. Residents enjoy a simple, relaxed setting with community walkways, natural scenery, and easy access to the beach. The gated entry adds an extra sense of privacy, and the neighborhood has a friendly, welcoming feel that makes it easy to settle in and enjoy island living. Located just down the street is the community pool and tennis court for the subdivision. Buyer to verify all measurements, Desoto Landing rules, regulations, fees and rental requirements.
