Great For Families


This house is a 1600 SF home that was renovated in 2020. The neighborhood is considered upscale and was built in the 80''s. There are no through streets so there is no loud noise or traffic.

This home is located 3 miles from Ft Walton Beaches and 7 miles to both Destin and Navarre Beach. I do live across the street should any problems arise. There are security cameras on only on the front of the home and the home has a monitored smoke/fire/weather alarm.
The back porch is very private with 8 ft privacy fences on both sides and trees/shrubs on the back fence. There is a TV on the back porch in the event you want to have a movie night. A permanently mounted propane grill is on the patio for cooking. (I furnish the propane)

Off the living room is a work are with a desk and side table if you bring a printer or other equipment.

This home is very clean and neat. This is a great place to spend with your family to enjoy our beaches and what the area has to offer. Instead of retiring for the evening in a crowded hotel/condo you can relax in a house . If you have any questions regarding this property please send me a message.

If you are traveling for 30+ days I can offer a special discount for military or traveling nurses.

I am sorry but pets are not allowed at this location
