Property Description
New Exterior Painted Water View Home. Steps to the Sound. Moments to the Beach. A thoughtfully designed mid-century, coastal home on highly sought-after Okaloosa Island. Located just steps from direct Intracoastal Sound water access and a short 3-minute walk to Public Beach Access 6, 721 Sailfish Drive offers an exceptional Florida coastal lifestyle. This expansive 5-bedroom, 3-bath home features Sound views, a remodelled atrium space, and enclosed sunrooms with oversized front-facing windows that bring in abundant natural light, including a cardio/fitness room and a coffee bar with water views. The open floor plan is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, highlighted by two elegant double-flue fireplaces with white marble rock surrounds that add warmth and architectural balance. A redesigned floating staircase with custom iron detailing creates a strong first impression, complemented by Vermont slate tile, newly installed LVP flooring (2025), cypress wood walls, new lighting and ceiling fans, and custom window treatments. The updated kitchen includes brand-new stainless-steel appliances (2024), a double pantry, breakfast bar, eat-in dining area, vast water views and seamless flow into the main living spaces. The primary suite is a true retreat, offering Sound water views, private access to a covered deck, a cedar-lined walk-in closet, and a fully renovated ensuite bathroom with a custom tile walk-in rain shower, frameless glass door, LED backlit mirror, and upgraded fixtures. Two distinct levels of living space provide flexibility for entertaining, hosting, or multigenerational living, with a lower-level living area and wet bar with kitchenette components that work well for guests or in-laws. Outdoors, the home offers a fenced-in oversized pool, covered patio, expansive back deck with screening potential, outdoor shower, and newly installed St. Augustine sod (2025). Elevated at 12'6" above sea level, the home offers peace of mind while delivering a lifestyle tailored for beach lovers, entertainers, and families seeking water views and effortless Gulf access.
