The added bonus of a golf cart garage is a coveted item here at the beach and having a golf cart makes it easy to explore all the wonderful amenities WaterColor has to offer. Homes like this with a private pool, gorgeous updates, and plenty of charm don't come around every day. Whether you're looking for a second home to use as a beach retreat or a vacation rental, this home is an excellent choice!

Refined coastal living awaits in the exclusive gated community of BellaMar at Gulf Place. This exceptional four-bedroom home sits on a private, 0.42-acre homesite and has been extensively updated, offering a truly turnkey opportunity with the look, feel, and functionality of a much newer residence. With all four bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite, located on the first floor, it is equally suited for full-time living, working remotely, or enjoying the ease of a luxury second home. A sunroom that doubles as a quiet office overlooks the private backyard oasis. Beyond the windows, a sparkling pool, mature landscaping, and a generously sized homesite create the privacy and outdoor living that set this home apart. Inside, enjoy two fireplaces, multiple gathering spaces, and a show-stopping backlit translucent quartz bar. Recent improvements include a new roof, all new windows, modern finishes throughout, a whole-home generator, and UV germicidal lights installed in both HVAC systems for added peace of mind and cleaner indoor air. With its extensive improvements already complete, the next owner can simply move in with confidence. Take in Gulf views from the private third-floor lookout, a unique vantage point made possible by the elevated homesite and the neighborhood's gently rolling topography. Then take the hidden walking path immediately east of the home to Gulf Place Town Center or stroll to the deeded beach access just across from BellaMar's gate by Vue on 30A. The fairways of Santa Rosa Golf & Beach Club border the west side of the neighborhood, complementing its natural beauty and relaxed coastal setting. Combined with the gated, rental-restricted setting and low HOA fees of just $430 per quarter, it's a lifestyle that's hard to match. 555 Sea Winds Drive presents a rare opportunity to enjoy privacy, generous outdoor space, and beautifully updated coastal living.

Built in 2020 and set on a rare quarter-acre double lot, 81 Brown Street offers 3,066 square feet of well-executed coastal living in the heart of Seagrove Beach. Located a short walk from Ramsgate and Eastern Lake beach access, the property combines scale, privacy, and flexibility with no HOA restrictions. The five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath layout is designed for both comfort and function. The main living area is open and connected, anchored by a kitchen with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, a large island, and a professional-grade six-burner gas range. Finishes throughout include full bamboo flooring, luxury tile, and clean, durable materials suited for full-time use or rental. Three spacious king suites offer flexibility for owners and guests, while a separate guest room and bunk room share a well-appointed hall bath, providing privacy and comfort for family and guests. The outdoor space is a defining feature. A heated pool and spa, custom fire pit, and Italian cypress-lined perimeter create a private setting uncommon for this location.

Positioned in Flood Zone X and within walking or biking distance to Greenway Station, the property offers direct access to dining, coffee, and retail while maintaining a quiet residential setting. The combination of lot size, location, and lack of restrictions makes this a highly usable and increasingly scarce offering in Seagrove Beach.
