Relax at one of the most pristine undeveloped areas of Florida, Cape San Blas and Saint Joseph Peninsula. This spacious 3 bedroom 3 bath single family house faces the beach with a nice beach view. Situated on the 1st tier you can see the beach on either side of the two beach front houses located in front of our house. Just 300 feet from the back deck of the house are 2 boardwalks to the beach. Each boardwalk is about 300 feet in length with beautiful views of the ocean and beach.
World renowned for nature activities such as fishing, scalloping, kayaking, boating, shell collecting, horseback riding, and bird, butterfly, dolphin and wildlife watching. These and other nature based activities are just outside your door. The best kept secret of Florida.
Vacation in the modern convenience of home with cable TVs, VCRs and a DVD, wireless high speed Internet, a fully equipped kitchen (you just bring the food), large dining area, Ralph Lauren luxury linen, two comfortable leather couches, fireplace, central heat and air, a game closet, a small book collection, and an expansive covered deck and uncovered deck with Gulf views.
The downstairs contains the kitchen, dining room, living room and a bathroom (which can also be accessed through the side entrance to the house) as well as the front and rear deck. The upstairs contains the three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The front bedroom contains a bathroom, the master bedroom also has a bathroom with a vanity area, and the third bedroom is accessible through the master bedroom (it does not have an attached bathroom but the other two upstairs rooms do).
This is a well maintained and cared for home. Pet and Child Friendly! Non Smoking! Located just 300 feet from two different boardwalks to the beach. Each boardwalk is about 300 feet long ending directly on a wide beach with sand dunes (about 600 feet to the water). The back deck of Amazing Grace has a beautiful view of the Gulf of Mexico. Amazing Grace is located approximately one mile West on Cape San Blas road after turning off C-30 toward the Cape.
Saturday to Saturday Rentals preferred but other dates and partial weeks are considered. Specials do not include holidays.
