161 Lakewood Drive

Description

With a mix of private comfort inside and immediate access to a variety of natural wonders outside, 161 Lakewood Drive is ideal as either a primary home or secondary vacation home. Located in Seagrove Beach's Eastern Lake community south of 30A, this beautiful custom home is uniquely situated to provide access to all the outdoor activities that South Walton has to offer! For kayakers, a hidden-gem public park with boat-launch into Eastern Lake is directly across the street. Eastern Lake is one of the rare Coastal Dune Lakes found in only a few places globally. You can be in the water in minutes and enjoy paddling to and from the public Gulf beach at the lake's kid-friendly inlet. If you prefer walking or riding to the beach, the nearest public beach is less than a half-mile down the street. Whether walking or boating, there is easy public access to the pristine natural beauty of Deer Lake State Park, just to the East. And for hikers, Greenway Station is a quick walk to the West, allowing access to Point Washington State Forest and its extensive trail system. And with rear-facing screened porches on both levels and a stand of old-growth trees in the front yard, the home provides nature and seclusion--even in the midst of a vibrant neighborhood with conveniently-located community pool and nearby to dining and shops, including the Old Florida Fish House and Cafe Thirty-A. The home features 4 bedrooms including a spacious 2nd-floor master bedroom with gorgeous private bathroom and its own screened porch. A secondary master bedroom with private bath is located on the first floor. Two additional guest bedrooms with a shared hall-bath are found upstairs. The open kitchen features ample storage and counter space, meaning that there is always room for cooking a fine meal. A rear screened-porch can be accessed from the living space downstairs, and opens up to a patio perfect for stoking a fire pit. There is parking space for 4 full-size vehicles, including a 1-car garage and partial carport attached to the front porch. The expanded driveway allows for at least 2 vehicles to park without needing to shuffle for entry, and when entertaining the nearby Eastern Lake park provides opportunity for overflow parking across the street.
