Supplements: Beyond its two-car parking pad set beneath a charming pergola and down a shaded path is its welcoming screened porch. Its pristine exterior with freshly painted wood lap board siding is enhanced by all new impact resistant exterior doors and windows installed in 2013. A Galvalume metal roof was installed in 2005. Limestone floors carry throughout the first floor which is home to two guest bedrooms and the master suite. Both guest bedrooms feature queen-size beds and floor to ceiling windows outfit with plantation shutters like most of the windows throughout the home, while one features an alcove with built-in chest of drawers. Classic white subway tile wainscoting carries into the tub and shower surround in the guest bath with granite-topped vanity. The adjacent laundry room with full-size washer and dryer units as well as a built-in ironing board includes a shower and extra-deep utility sink for convenient clean-up after a day at the beach. Virginia maple is used extensively throughout the home, from base molding and door casing to support columns and ceiling beams. The master suite resides on the Gulf-facing side of the first floor. Plenty of room remains for a comfortable sitting area at the foot of its king-size bed while French doors lead out onto a private screened porch. A spiral staircase leads to the second-floor sun deck. A sun-filled master bath with double vanity that also features access to the screened porch joins a walk-in closet to complete the master suite. A staircase with limestone slab treads leads to the principal living areas on the second floor throughout which the limestone floors continue. At the top of the stairs is an additional guest bath with shower and guest bedroom with tray ceiling, currently setup as a home office and media room with sleeper sofa for guest accommodations. Like the two guest bedrooms on the first floor, this room can be locked from the outside, as can its walk-in closet. A cathedral ceiling unites the kitchen and dining room areas. A 4 by 7-foot center island with granite counter and bar seating joins additional perimeter cabinetry. Floor to ceiling shuttered windows span the west side of the home from the dining room into the Gulf front living room with tray ceiling and wood burning fireplace flanked by Virginia maple built-ins. Beyond two sets of French doors and adjoining windows is an expansive Gulf front sun deck whose pergola gently encapsulates the space without obstructing the fantastic panoramic views of the Gulf. The sun deck is plumbed for natural gas to conveniently accommodate grilling. Fewer than 50 yards separates the front door of this home from the steps of the Odessa Street beach access, home to one of nine iconic pavilions that dot the shoreline of Seaside where new urbanism sprang to life over 30 years ago in Northwest Florida.
