Property Description
UNDER CONTRACT, TAKING BACKUP OFFERS. Tucked away on beautiful Marler Bayou, one of Destin's most sought-after waterfront locations, this beautifully maintained brick home offers the kind of lifestyle people move to Destin to enjoy. With a detached accessory dwelling unit (ADU) already set up as a studio apartment and a location just minutes from Destin Pass, Crab Island, Choctawhatchee Bay, and the Gulf of America, this property delivers a rare combination of waterfront living, flexibility, and convenience. Spend your days boating, fishing, paddleboarding, or enjoying waterfront dining, then come home to your own private retreat beneath the shade of mature oak and magnolia trees. Inside, you'll find custom touches throughout that make this home anything but cookie-cutter. The spacious living room features soaring 19-foot ceilings and a stunning custom wood feature wall that immediately becomes the focal point of the home. Granite countertops, a custom wood wet bar, beautiful cypress shelving, and thoughtfully selected finishes create a warm, welcoming space that's equally suited for entertaining or everyday living. The spacious primary suite offers vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet, and plenty of room to relax after a day on the water. Step onto the screened porch and take in the peaceful bayou setting, coastal breezes, spectacular sunsets, and even Destin's fireworks displays from the comfort of home. The detached ADU includes a sleeping area, living space, and kitchen, making it ideal for guests, extended family, a home office, creative studio, or private retreat. Waterfront homes on Marler Bayou rarely become available. Combining custom features, mature landscaping, a detached ADU, and one of Destin's most desirable waterfront settings, this is a unique opportunity to enjoy the very best of life on the Emerald Coast.
