Description

This spacious three-bedroom Santa Rosa Beach vacation home includes nearly 1,700 square feet for 11 excited beach-going guests. Situated on the gulf side of Scenic 30A in the lovely Sunrise Beach community, it is only steps away from the sugary white shoreline. However, you don't even have to go that far for some refreshing fun with a private lagoon-shaped saltwater swimming pool and outdoor grilling area. Guests may also take advantage of seasonal complimentary beach setups with four chairs and two umbrellas, in addition to a convenient outdoor shower. Besides the relaxing pool patio, a columned veranda downstairs and a fully covered veranda upstairs provide a wonderful space for entertaining and enjoying the sparkling views. The upper-level balcony wraps around the side of this gracious home with a dining area and multiple rocking chairs. Here you may enjoy favorite drinks and savory snacks while dining al fresco.

Suncatcher exudes charm with columned verandas spanning its width, a white picket fence, and lush tropical landscaping. Two of the guest quarters are conveniently located on the first floor. One Guest Bedroom has cottage-style furnishings with a king-sized bed, twin bunks, direct access to the pool patio, and an ensuite bath with a walk-in shower. The other Guest Bedroom is perfect for the kids with two bunks that include four twin beds and access to a full bath with a tub shower combination. Both guest bedrooms include smart TVs for evening viewing pleasure (live TV not provided).

The open living, dining, and kitchen areas are upstairs, along with the Master Suite. This bright, welcoming space features a soaring vaulted ceiling, lots of windows, and double glass doors that lead to the covered balcony with views of the pool and glistening gulf waters. A plush cream-colored couch and love seat face a large smart TV (live TV not provided) for evening entertainment. Beach-inspired decorative art throughout this home includes marine life sculptures and colorful prints. A dining area includes a long cream-colored rectangular table and eight white vintage modern metal chairs for charmed dining. The open kitchen nearby features rich granite-topped counters, including a bar with three metal barstools for additional wining and dining. Plenty of white cabinetry and appliances provide everything needed to create a fun family feast.

The Master Bedroom features a high vaulted ceiling that accentuates a spacious look. Comfortable cottage-style furnishings surround a king-sized bed, a day bed with a twin trundle, and a smart TV (live TV not provided). Double glass doors lead out to the upper-level balcony providing guests with charming views overlooking the pool deck. An ensuite Master Bath features unique stone countertops with a matching large walk-in shower.

This outstanding Santa Rosa Beach location is in the exclusively gated Sunrise Beach community. Besides the beautiful beach, this locale is a short stroll away from Draper Lake, a precious Coastal Dune Lake that is a true natural treasure. Lakes of this kind are found hardly anywhere else in the world. Creek-like tributary connections across the dunes create an exotic mixture of artisan spring-fed and salted waters. This combination supports abundant wildlife, fish, and plants. You may enjoy exploring this lovely world and try your luck fishing. This area is also a turtle nesting ground, so be careful where you step and only use specially tinted flashlights on the beach at night. This wonderful world of its own is surprisingly close to popular restaurants, friendly beach bars, shopping adventures, outdoor amphitheater concerts, and fun festivals nearby at the Santa Rosa Beach village center of Gulf Place.

Awesome Spring Break!
We’ve been staying in this neighborhood for spring break from 14 years now and we love the location. The house was beautiful wonderful swimming pool close to beach access close to shops and restaurants. We had a blast!

So close to the beach!
We had a great stay at this home. Less than a two minute walk to be on the beach. Home was very clean and well equipped in the kitchen. It was two families with little kids and it was perfect. It was very nice that each master bedroom had additional beds for kids if they were too small for the bunk room. Nice size kitchen and living room. The aerial picture from the back makes it seem that the house is a duplex but it is a really a single family home. Great place to stay and just a quick walk to get food and coffee.

How long of a walk to the beach? Can we rent a golf cart and ride on 30a? Restaurants nearby?
Gina T - Posted: 01/01/2022

Answer:

Suncatcher is a  great home, located less than a minute to the beach with no roads to cross. Yes, you can rent a golf cart - and if it's street legal, you can explore all of 30A. You can also walk to several excellent restaurants, including Shunk Gulley & Perfect Pig.

Can you tell me more about what you are changing up and renovating?
