Property Description
512 Samana Way is calling you home! Nestled on over a quarter acre, this Bluewater Bay bungalow lives much larger than its 2166 square feet thanks to a highly flexible layout that seamlessly bridges indoor and outdoor spaces. The wide, covered front entry greets you with a surprise - a private courtyard! Screened from the quiet residential street, this patio is made for intimate gatherings, morning coffee, and carefree playtime easily observable from the kitchen. At the heart of the home find a spacious living room with access to the bedroom wing, formal dining room, screened back porch, and the ultimate flex /recreation room overlooking the backyard. The flat, fully-fenced backyard features mature landscaping and a perfect retreat for pets and play. Each of the property's three bedrooms boast walk-in closets and built-in cabinetry in the main hall provides additional storage. For peace of mind, the roof was replaced in 2024, HVAC replaced in 2023, water heater replaced in 2023, sliding glass doors and most windows replaced in 2017 and 2019. From its prime location, all of Bluewater Bay's resort amenities are within easy reach including miles of recreational trails, dining, shopping, a marina complex, and memberships available for golf, tennis, pickleball, and pools. Zoned for highly rated Bluewater Elementary School, offering a choice of Ruckel or Destin Middle School, and highly acclaimed Niceville High School. Zip over the nearby MidBay Bridge to take advantage of Destin and South Walton's famed white sand beaches and recreational opportunities.
