Being on the east end, away from the center elevators, means more privacy, and quiet time. The unit was decorated in relaxing beach colors and decor to give a Florida beach cottage feel....this is the beach after all. This custom floorplan is one of the largest 2BR 2BA units in Destin with 1430 SQ FT heated and cooled, in addition to the 30' foot balcony.
Among the quietest condos at Destin Gulfgate for the following reasons:
1. End unit of 5th floor of the building--no neighbor on left side.
2. No one walks by front door or 2nd bedroom windows except occasional persons who use stairway rather than elevators. But then stairway users would normally use west stairway on other side of building where the pool and boardwalk to the beach are.

3. On quiet side of building away from boardwalk, deck, pool and boardwalk.
A large fully stocked kitchen makes it easy to dine in the condo rather than eating out all the time. Laundry room has new side by side washer and dryer. The 2 separated bedroom suites have their own baths and privacy with lots of closet space. THE WHOLE UNIT HAS BEEN TILED WITH 16' DIAGONAL TILES.
