Property Description

**FRESHLY RENOVATED/JUNE 2026** This move-in-ready home features fresh interior paint and renovations, creating a bright, modern feel throughout. The thoughtfully designed layout offers the perfect balance of open living spaces and comfortable private areas, including a spacious bonus room that can be used as a home office, gym, or play room! This rare corner lot features a large back yard--ideal for growing families, entertaining guests, or simply enjoying everyday life! This property also offers a rare combination of comfort, efficiency, and long-term value. A solar system is already in place to help offset rising energy costs. Natural light fills the main living areas, and the seamless flow leads directly to a large back patio and expansive backyard--perfect for family gatherings, weekend barbecues, or creating your own outdoor oasis. If you're looking for a home that's been tastefully updated, offers exceptional functionality, and is located close to everything the Emerald Coast has to offer, this one deserves a spot at the top of your list.

A versatile bonus room provides flexibility for a home office, playroom, or additional living space, while the oversized laundry/utility room adds convenience and extra storage. Major systems have already been addressed, including a metal roof, HVAC, water heater, and appliances--all approximately 4 years old--giving buyers confidence and peace of mind. Step outside to enjoy two storage buildings, partial privacy fencing, and plenty of space to add a pool, garden, or outdoor living area tailored to your lifestyle. If you're looking for a property with strong fundamentals, valuable upgrades, and room to add your own style--all in a prime location--this is one you don't want to miss.
