Presiding over a lakefront lot of almost a half-acre, this magnificent Mediterranean-style home has many enviable features and updates. Beautifully architected on the outside, the home revels in its waterfront position with stunning views from most rooms in the house. The broad brick-paved driveway sweeps up to the three-car garage with ample space to accommodate cars and a golf cart. Shallow steps lead up to the imposing front entrance, with tall columns making a grand first impression. Leonardo travertine tile leads to the double door entrance, which opens into the first of two spacious living areas.

Brazilian hardwood flooring graces each area, including the open chef’s kitchen, which enjoys impressive views. Custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances make this a well-appointed space. Keen cooks will note the six-burner gas range/oven, dishwasher, wine cooler, and a pantry for storing additional items neatly out of sight. There’s a breakfast bar as well as a dedicated breakfast nook for starting each day with the best views. Designed for entertaining, the kitchen opens into a family room with a fireplace, providing a cozy ambiance. This irregular-shaped room looks out directly onto the screened pool and spa, which in turn overlooks the peaceful lake. All on one level, the home flows through a series of dedicated spaces, including a sitting room, an executive study, a private sauna, and a laundry room. The formal dining room is illuminated by a breathtaking chandelier, making a grand statement all its own. Decorative tray ceilings with recessed lighting are bordered by elegant crown molding, while high ceilings and custom plantation shutters add a high-end finish. Three bright and airy bedrooms each have their own private bathroom, with a further half bath serving guests. The master suite outshines the rest with a sitting area for relaxing, a huge walk-in custom closet, and direct access to the lanai. The generous master bath features decorative lighting, a cultured marble shower, double vanities and a separate make-up area. The jetted tub is perfect for relaxing in this spa-like retreat, which includes a spacious dressing area.

A new tile roof (2025), newer HVAC and water heater, and a recently resurfaced pool ensure many years of maintenance-free living. Tinted windows and three independently controlled zones for heat and air deliver the ultimate year-round comfort. Located in the premier non-rental community of Regatta Bay in Destin, this outstanding residence has the added assurance of gated security. High-end amenities include an 18-hole championship golf course, tennis courts, a gym, clubhouse, and a community pool. All this, just minutes from Destin Executive Airport, designer shopping, restaurants, fishing, and beautiful sandy beaches. Sold with golf cart.
