Its thoughtful design yields panoramic views over an incomparably majestic landscape that captures the best coastal living has to offer in Northwest Florida. Never before on the market, this home built in 2006 by Victor Bowman, AIA incorporates impressive provisions to its site and structure; massive, poured concrete retaining walls along the site perimeter protect approximately 70 wood pilings that anchor the structure to the elevated landscape. There exists only a handful of lots along Scenic Highway 30A that provide frontage on both a coastal dune lake and the Gulf of Mexico. The home can be entered from the front on both the ground level and second level. On the ground level is an informal living room area with wet bar, full bath and access to the pool deck. The private pool and surrounding ipe hardwood deck are shielded by the natural vegetation found along the shoreline of Draper Lake. The deck also provides access to the private dock on Draper Lake, from which canoes, kayaks and paddle boards can be launched. The remainder of the ground level is dedicated to three guest bedrooms with private baths. Each enjoys immediate access to the pool deck through French doors equipped with custom plantation shutters. Each bath features its own unique palette of imported Italian marble tile that adorns both its floor and shower walls. The walls throughout the principle living and common areas on the ground level, as well as those on the second level, are beaded, tongue and groove cypress hardwood plank. These walls carry a cathedral ceiling in the second-level kitchen, living and dining room areas, also beaded, tongue and groove cypress hardwood plank with exposed cypress hardwood trusses. At the peak of this ceiling is a clerestory that sheds additional natural light on the space. Three sets of windows interspersed by two sets of French doors, all crowned by transom windows, line the east wall of the space and frame the truly remarkable view. The kitchen features custom raised-panel hardwood cabinets, edged marble slab counters, a tumbled marble tile backsplash as well as an appliance suite that includes a Lacanche gas range imported from France along with a Vent-A-Hood, Bosch dishwasher and Sub Zero refrigerator/freezer, each disguised with custom hardwood raised panels. The nearby butler's pantry features a stainless steel GE refrigerator and GE Profile microwave. An additional guest bedroom with private bath and the Gulf-front master bedroom complete the second level. The master bedroom features its own beaded, tongue and groove cypress hardwood plank ceiling with exposed cypress hardwood trusses. Two sets of French doors lead to a covered porch that shares the same views enjoyed by the living and dining room areas. The gracious master bath features a marble vanity, private water closet, 66-inch long free-standing claw-foot Kohler tub, as well as a walk-in Steamist shower. There is not another home on the market whose view can compare to that of 291 Old Beach Road.
