A private boat slip with a boat lift, views across the Santa Rosa Sound to Pensacola Beach, and three levels of balconies — this 3-story townhouse in Gulf Breeze proper delivers the kind of waterfront lifestyle that's genuinely hard to find. Spend your mornings watching the sunrise over the Sound and your evenings catching the sunset from the rooftop terrace. The boat or jet skis are steps away with your own private slip and lift right out back, and a sandy beach area is shared by the community — this is the kind of daily life most people only get on vacation. The first floor has a one-car garage and bonus room that opens to a large covered deck overlooking the water. Add a mini kitchen or bar to the garage — as several units in the complex have — and that lower deck becomes a self-contained entertaining space. Upstairs, the living room centers on a one-of-a-kind fireplace handcrafted by a local artist, a wall of windows opens to a waterfront balcony, and the kitchen and dining area set the stage for entertaining. A guest bedroom and full bathroom round out the second floor. The third floor holds a second guest bedroom and the primary suite, where water views frame the room and sliding shutters open to a Juliet balcony. The rooftop terrace features a wet bar room and breathtaking Sound views — several units have enclosed this space to add a bedroom, bath, office, or sitting room, and this one potentially offers that same opportunity. The home is fully wired for a portable generator, and natural gas is available in the complex. Conveniently located near top-rated schools, Gulf Islands National Seashore, restaurants, medical facilities, and Pensacola Beach is just minutes away.
