517 Beachside Gardens

Description

This is not just a beachfront home. It is a 140 foot Gulf front compound inside the gated community of Carillon Beach, one of the most private and tightly held communities on the coast. The lot is exceptionally wide, creating a sense of openness and scale that is nearly impossible to find today. Built in 2019, the modern main residence and separate carriage house together offer more than 6,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, complemented by over 2,000 square feet of covered porches positioned for uninterrupted Gulf views and remarkable sunset evenings. The three-level carriage house enjoys Gulf vistas from every floor, a rare and compelling feature that enhances both privacy and long-term value. The layout is intentional, balancing expansive gathering areas with private retreats, allowing the property to perform equally well as a personal compound or a high-performing investment. In total, the estate accommodates up to 22 guests across eight bedrooms, seven ensuite bathrooms, and three additional powder rooms. A private pool anchors the outdoor living experience, while multiple terraces and direct access to an expansive stretch of beach extend the home's livability well beyond its walls. Directly in front of the property lies more than 3,900 linear feet of community beachfront, creating an uncommon sense of space, minimal foot traffic, and a setting that feels quiet and exclusive. The main house and carriage house may be rented together or independently, offering flexibility for owners seeking income potential without compromising lifestyle. As a legacy family retreat or a luxury rental asset, the property stands apart in scale, width, and irreplaceable beachfront positioning. Opportunities of this caliber are increasingly rare along the Gulf.
