Nestled in the heart of Destin, this custom-built lakefront home sits peacefully at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the gated community of Emerald Lakes. As you walk into the home, you'll be greeted by dramatic arches, elegant pillars, and 15' ceilings that create an inviting and relaxing atmosphere. The main living area is perfectly designed for relaxation and entertainment, a spacious area to spend quality time with friends loved ones. The kitchen has a fantastic layout with views of the water, custom cabinetry, stainless appliances, granite countertops, and a large counter bar adjoining the breakfast nook. Just off the kitchen is a large walk-in pantry and a spacious laundry room. The separate laundry room has a sink, folding area, and includes a high-end stainless-steel LG washer and dryer combo with bonus 2nd pedestal washer for small loads. There is also a small doggy door that leads to a fenced-in section of yard that is perfect for your furry family members. With a luxurious double door entry, you will find the oversized owner's suite to be a spacious and relaxing retreat with magnificent water views. Connected to the bedroom is a bathroom with a whirlpool tub, double sink vanity, and a large walk-in shower that has a rainfall shower head. The owner's suite bathroom also has a separate water closet, and walk-in closet with a custom shelving system. Resting comfortably in the center of the home is the spacious den. With plenty of space for loved ones to cozy up around the natural gas fireplace, the den serves as the heart of this home both physically and metaphorically. If you're a particularly energy conscious person, you'll be happy to know that gas not only powers the fireplace, but it also serves as the main heat source for the central air and hot water. Adjacent to the living room, you'll discover a 12' x 23' (276 square feet) wonderful second entertaining room with large windows and lake views that is not included in the square footage of the main home. This multipurpose space can be used as a second den, recreational room for exercising, reading, or simply enjoying the water views and natural habitat of the blue heron and other lake wildlife. Your back yard retreat and open patio offer tranquility and peacefulness with water views in all directions, as well as morning sunrise view. You'll enjoy the easy morning sun with your coffee, then shaded afternoons and evenings as you relax at the end of the day. Emerald Lakes is one of Destin's most popular gated communities and offers a beautiful community pool, lighted tennis and pickleball courts, a basketball court, landscaped walkways throughout the neighborhood, a covered picnic area, and a new expanded playground. This home's location is uniquely convenient to the area. You'll be just minutes from the Destin Commons which is home to shopping areas, restaurants, a movie theatre, and only 2 miles from the white sandy beaches of the Gulf of Mexico!
