Description

Beginning March 1st, Seagull’s Nest will include four complimentary bikes and a six-seater golf cart for guest use!

Welcome to Seagull's Nest—formerly known as R and R—a timeless Grayton Beach getaway that blends fresh coastal style with the laid-back spirit of 30A. Nestled in the quiet enclave of Gulf Trace, this spacious vacation home accommodates up to 13 guests and sits just a short stroll from the shimmering shoreline. Surrounded by the protected beauty of Grayton Beach State Park—and featuring a private pool, inviting interiors, and plenty of room to gather—Seagull's Nest sets the stage for sun-drenched memories and effortless Gulf living.

Inside, the home has been thoughtfully updated with bright finishes and modern touches while preserving the casual charm guests have always loved. The open-concept main floor is designed for connection, anchored by a plush sectional and large flatscreen TV in the coastal-inspired living room. A wall of windows fills the space with natural light and frames peaceful views of the backyard retreat. The dining area centers around a long farmhouse-style table that seats eight. In the kitchen, crisp shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, and a glossy sea-glass backsplash pair with stainless steel appliances to create a space that's both functional and beautiful—perfect for meal prep, cocktail hours, or casual grazing between beach outings.

Upstairs, the top-floor primary suite feels like a private retreat, crowned by a dramatic vaulted ceiling with whitewashed beams and surrounded by windows offering peek-a-boo views of the Gulf. A cozy sitting area beneath the angles of the roofline provides a serene setting for morning coffee, journaling, or remote work. The suite also features a regal four-poster king bed, an ensuite bath with a soaking tub and walk-in shower, and direct access to an observation balcony designed for sunset watching and stargazing.

Additional guest accommodations are located on the first and second floors, providing comfort and flexibility for families and groups. Downstairs, two inviting bedrooms—one with a king and one with a queen—are paired with two full bathrooms, making it an ideal setup for extended family or those seeking a bit of added privacy. This level also includes a bonus den with a flatscreen TV, wet bar, and direct access to the pool deck—perfect for casual lounging or post-beach snacks.

On the main living level, a cheerful bunk room features two twin-over-twin bunks and a twin trundle, offering a fun and functional space for kids or teens. Each bedroom is styled with relaxed coastal décor and premium linens, while updated bathrooms throughout the home include granite vanities, spacious walk-in showers, and thoughtful finishes designed for guest comfort.

Outside, the private pool is a standout feature, bordered by brick pavers, pergolas, and lush tropical landscaping. Whether you're floating under the sun, sipping drinks in the shade, or dining al fresco beneath the stars, this is the kind of outdoor space that defines a perfect day at the beach. Covered porches and balconies on every level invite you to step outside, breathe in the salty breeze, and let your cares drift away.

When you're ready to explore, Gulf Trace offers rare access to one of 30A's most breathtaking natural treasures—Grayton Beach State Park. Here, rare coastal dune lakes invite kayaking and paddleboarding, while winding nature trails and untouched beaches stretch for miles. Just minutes away, you'll find beloved local favorites like the Red Bar and Chiringo, along with eclectic boutiques, galleries, and beach shops that capture the spirit of Old Florida.

Whether you're returning for another chapter or discovering this home for the first time, Seagull's Nest is ready to welcome you with comfort, character, and a true sense of place. Come stay, unwind, and let Grayton Beach work its magic.
