About this property
Gulf-View Townhome·Dog Friendly·Steps to Beach
Twenty steps. That's the distance from Gulf Breeze's front door to the beach walkover at Cape San Blas. Not a short walk, not a quick stroll — twenty steps to some of the most unspoiled Gulf Coast shoreline in Florida. This end-unit townhome in the gated Barrier Dunes community sits in the first row facing the Gulf, and every inch of it is designed to make you feel as close to the water as possible without getting your feet wet inside.
- 20 steps to the beach walkover — first-tier beachfront end unit -Dog friendly — bring up to 2 dogs to one of Cape San Blas's most beautiful beaches -Sleeps 9 — two king suites, loft with 3 twins, queen sleeper sofa -Both bedrooms are king suites with private ensuite baths — no sharing required -Access to gulf-front and interior community pools in Barrier Dunes -2-car covered carport + stocked beach closet at ground level - Beach cart, beach chairs, cooler, buckets & shovels all included - $35/day credit toward beach gear rentals (stays of 3–21 nights) - High-speed WiFi + Smart TV in every bedroom - Fully equipped kitchen with Keurig, drip coffee maker & spice rack - Pack 'n Play and high chair available -Gated community — quiet, secure, and steps from the water
This is the kind of beach house that works beautifully for multigenerational families. The adults each claim a king suite upstairs — both with private ensuite baths and their own balconies — while the kids pile into the loft with three twin beds and their own TV nook. Nobody is fighting over bathroom time, nobody is sleeping on a pull-out in the living room, and everybody wakes up within earshot of the Gulf. Start your mornings with coffee on the main deck, watching the water from the dining table while the gas grill warms up for breakfast. By the time you've eaten, the beach is calling — and it's literally twenty steps away. Spend afternoons in the surf, at the community pool, or settled into the bay window seat with a book from the home's collection. Evenings back on the deck, the sun dropping into the Gulf, your dog stretched out at your feet — this is what Cape San Blas is all about.
The main level is open and airy, with a fully equipped kitchen, breakfast bar with three barstools, a generous dining area, living room with sleeper sofa, a cozy bay window seat, and a half bath. The large beachfront deck with gas grill and dining set is where the group will naturally end up morning, afternoon, and evening.
