Overview
House, 4 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 3 Baths, (Sleeps 9-12)
Heavenly Sunrise is a 4 bedroom, 3 bath beachfront home with ocean views from every room in the house except the three bathrooms. This home is a comfortable 1800 square feet with approximately 1000 feet of uncovered, covered and screened decks with unobstructed views of the Gulf of Mexico.
The home is comfortably furnished with a large family or group in mind. The top floor boasts a million dollar view of the sugar white beaches and Gulf of Mexico from the master suite, living room, dining room, kitchen, screened porch and uncovered sun deck. The kitchen is fully stocked with plenty of cookware and serving ware to serve many.
Most common small kitchen appliances are provided for your convenience. The first floor has three additional bedrooms, each with a covered deck and million dollar view of the Gulf along with two additional baths and the laundry room.
Heavenly Sunrise faces north-east for the most incredible sunrise views imaginable. Built in 2004, this home was constructed to the most stringent Florida Coastal Construction Zone building standards. The home was designed to provide breath-taking views and deck access from every bedroom and common area. Decks were designed for sun-lovers, shade-lovers and those that tend to attract the attention of biting insects common to Florida beaches i.e. no-see-ums or mosquitoes.
If you are looking for an un-crowded paradise for your family or friends, Heavenly Sunrise will more than deliver. If you dream of a Florida vacation on unspoiled beaches, without all of the tourists, tourist traps, traffic, and drunken crowds; Heavenly Sunrise will accommodate those dreams. If you imagine private midnight strolls or early morning jogs along the Gulf of Mexico, or the sounds of the waves crashing while the whippoorwills chant to wake you to your own private daily viewing of the Almighty’s splendor… Heavenly Sunrise is sure to please!

About Sharon Brewer
I'm from Tallahassee, but have lived in Atlanta for 25 years. I grew up fishing, crabbing and sun-tanning on Alligator Point at my Granddaddy's beach house. I built this house to accommodate my family and my husband's family. We have spent countless nights watching the shooting stars, eating roasted oysters and watching our kids grow up on the beach! Those family memories will outlast me and become traditions! We have traveled the world, but nothing compares to a family vacation at this beach. The privacy and the safety can't be found on another beach. I hope that you make some lifetime memories with your family and friends, also!
Sharon Brewer purchased this house in 2005
Why Sharon Brewer chose Florida Main North West
This is the 'Forgotten Coast.' Home of the last 'Real Florida' beaches. The area was protected by State and Federal Parks, Forests, and Wildlife Refuges many years ago, so it remains natural and pristine. The locals still fish for a living, and development was never allowed to run rampant. It is one of the few beaches in Florida where you can still find shells, sand dollars, starfish, coral and other sea life. The porpoises play along the shore with no fear of careless boaters, jet skis, and throngs of tourists. The pelicans and herons fish the shallow surf, as you watch in awe. The beach remains very much like the photographs from 65 years ago, when my grandfather owned a home on Alligator Point. To this day, his home still stands. No condos, or chain hotels or souvenir shops have taken its place. It's a trip back in time to 'the real Florida!'
What makes this house unique
Privacy, privacy, privacy! As a native Floridian, I am not fond of crowded tourist traps. This location is incredibly private. Most days you will have the entire beach to yourself! You can watch your kids play on the beach without fear of traffic, bad influences or strangers. During low tide, even the smallest children can play in knee deep water on one of the many sand bars. Because this is a low-impact beach; overpowering waves and undercurrents are rare. The sand dollars, starfish, coral and sponge and seashells are abundant.

Perfection
We had such a great time at this home. The beach location was perfect for us. We were able to fish, paddleboard, wade, swim, hang out, play corn hole and just be on vacation with no worries. Thank you so much for having this home in the listings.
Family Fun, Fabulous Photos, Fantastic Flora and Fauna
There is not much missing from this home, the inside is perfect for multiple families; the bathrooms are comfortable and accessible; the additional games, toys, kites, books, dvds, vhs tapes--more than cover a possible grounding in the house due to storms; and the beach, hiking trails nearby, stars at night, sunrises in the morning and sea life, birds and the people you meet---made for a wonderful and memorable family reunion.
The porches were super and there are more than enough chairs for all of us. The enclosed porch was perfect for the infant and toddler when the sun was high. The waters were mostly placid and had wonderful sandbars that even our toddler could walk out and see sea life. She became quite adept at picking up hermit crabs to 'talk' with them.
We went to the aquarium, a must see. The hands on tanks were fun for all of us and you support a great endeavor by just going to visit.
Our photos of sunrises, lightening storms off in the distance, stars at night, sea birds and local fishing 'catches' are a delightful panorama of all that we observed.
Susan, the caretaker, was front and center when we had a problem. Sharon, the owner, is quick to respond and very supportive with her suggestions and insights.
The kitchen had everything we needed and we found two chairs downstairs which enabled all of us to eat around the table for one meal a day as a family. The neighbors were fun to talk with and the few people walking the beach were like family. Oh yes and on the weekend, two wind surfers put on a spectacular display of their talents. We had so much fun watching them and going to meet them. You don't meet a stranger on this beach, people are warm, welcoming and wonderful.
Great Beachfront Home!
We had an amazing week at Heavenly Sunrise! The beachfront property had plenty of room for six adults and four children and was well stocked with kitchen supplies, towels, and linens. We spent much time on the sun deck and screened in deck. We really enjoyed the "ground zero" location of biodiversity of sea life during low tide - lots of sand crabs, hermit crabs, horseshoe crabs, and even a starfish. Our grandkids loved discovering the live sea creatures! Tropical Storm Cindy kept us inside for a day, but the good side of that was that the storm winds apparently took care of the no seeum bugs and biting insects that are sometimes present along the Gulf. Sharon did a great job at making our week long stay a very pleasant experience for our family.
Very nice
Nice and quiet. My family had a great time.
Just fantastic
Oh my goodness, our trip was fantastic! My family (my wife, my 19 month old and myself) went with another family (another couple with a 19 month old) and had an absolute blast. We saw maybe 6 different groups of people on the beaches the entire time we were there (all of them friendly). The beach was perfect for our little curious toddlers. There were hermit crabs and other sea creatures scurrying along outside by the dozens and it was fantastic to see the kids try to make sense of it all. Also, I would consider myself a C+ fisherman when it comes to the few times per year I can visit a lake near where I live however we had a lot of luck with some cheap fishing poles ($20 from the local one stop store across the bridge) and just fishing from the shore in between the sandbars. The one down side (which is not a surprise if you've ever been to Florida) is the number of biting insects outside. My wife and I took a walk along the beach one evening (you can walk out about 100 yards on the sandbars when the tide is low) but I didn't put on bug spray...my mistake. My ankles were bit but we warned the other couple of this before they went on their walk the next night and they said they had no problems at all. The house was clean and spacious. The living room had plenty of space and the decks were awesome for midday naps. Every room looked like it had a TV in it but nobody really had time to watch since the screened in porch was perfect for evening wave watching.There were attractions across the bridge if just going to the beach every day isn't your thing but if you're looking for a vacation where you can really spend time with your family and friends, this is it. Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation!!!
Like having my own private pardise!
This was likely the best vacation we ever had! The house was just as pictured. It was clean and well-maintained! The kitchen was fully stocked and we had plenty of bath towels, linens - everything we needed - unlike most rental houses with just the bare necessities!
The thing that was so incredible about this house was the VIEW! WOW! from every room you had an unobstructed view of the Gulf of Mexico! Then when you walked outside on the decks and screened porch - it was amazing! During the week - we had the entire beach to ourselves...like our own private paradise! On weekends you would see some families and fishermen come down for the day - but they were down the beach a ways!
We LOVED,LOVED, LOVED this place! We will be back every year!
