Property Description
Nestled in the exclusive Sugar Sand community, this under-construction custom-built home epitomizes coastal luxury with high-end finishes, breathtaking Gulf-front views, and private beach access. Designed to seamlessly blend elegance with a relaxed beach lifestyle, this five-bedroom, five-bathroom residence offers a perfect retreat for private homeowners or investors seeking a premium rental property. Perched along the pristine shores of the Gulf of Mexico, this home features expansive unobstructed views from its back porch and pool terrace, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor living experience. The reverse infinity-edge pool enhances the connection between the home and its natural surroundings, while a private community boardwalk provides golf cart access to the unspoiled white sand beach. Every detail of this residence has been thoughtfully designed to offer the perfect balance of style and functionality. Inside, the open-concept floor plan maximizes natural light, with black-frame windows and three sets of double doors leading to a covered balcony on the upper level. The Catalina Black Label wood flooring adds warmth and sophistication, while a serene ocean-inspired color palette enhances the coastal ambiance. Stylish design elements, such as a shiplap stairwell with sconce lighting, and the elegant contrast of White Dove walls with Woodlawn Blue interior doors, elevate the home's aesthetic appeal. Upon entry, the paved parking pad leads into an elegant foyer, opening to a guest suite with a private bathroom, a TV/sitting area, and direct access to the pool terrace. Two additional guest suites on this level offer privacy, each with their own en-suite bathrooms. Upstairs, the main living, dining, and kitchen areas take center stage with soaring ceilings, high-end finishes, and panoramic Gulf views. Three sets of double doors open to the covered balcony, allowing for effortless indoor-outdoor entertaining. The primary suite and an additional guest suite occupy this level, featuring spa-inspired en-suite bathrooms with luxury brushed gold fixtures from the Momenti and Riu collections. Located midway between Mexico Beach and Tyndall Air Force Base, the private, gated Sugar Sand community offers a social clubhouse with a full kitchen, a community pool, a fitness center, and private golf cart access to the beach. With completion expected in October 2025, this stunning Gulf-front estate is a rare opportunity to own an exclusive coastal retreat, offering strong rental potential for investors or the ultimate luxury beach lifestyle for discerning homeowners. This home is being offered unfurnished at the current list price. However, it can be sold fully furnished and turnkey for an additional cost. Please inquire for details on pricing and inclusions.
