Perched up on the 15th floor, in popular Destin Surfside, you will find a coastal treasure! Unit 1512 and A, its lock-out, offers fabulous Gulf, western coastline, bay, dune lake, and year around romantic and spectacular sunset views. Newly updated, painted, furnished and decorated in serene shades of whites and watercolor hues, it's a seaside retreat. New, fashionable, high-end lighting fixtures are throughout along with continuous, white oak, wood-look tile flooring for ease of care. All 3 baths have been updated with white quartz counter tops, porcelain sinks, white 36'' tall, soft close, Thomasville vanities, toilets and nickel finish faucets. The kitchen has those custom wood cabinets in a neutral tone, quartz counters and backsplash, all new stainless appliances, sink, and faucet. The cozy breakfast nook is a wonderful spot for morning coffee. And while you're at it, have some awesome views with that. It's the best way to start the day. Step out onto the large, wrap around balcony and take in the miles of western coastline and even out over the bay. It's where those breathtaking sunsets the Emerald Coast is famous for are happening each day. The rare coastal dune lakes can be seen glistening along with the Gulf. It's all just amazing.. The Gulf breezes add to the balcony making it the perfect place to relax, unwind and enjoy a good book or cool drink. It is accessed from both the kitchen and dining/living rooms and all the bedrooms also have access to the balcony. The lock-out unit has it's own separate hall entry and balcony which makes renting it apart from the main unit possible. The ceilings are 9 feet tall only on the 15th and 16th floors at Surfside, which gives the unit an airy and more spacious feeling, and all the floor to ceiling sliding glass doors have been serviced and operate like new. The elegant, custom, white linen drapes, with black-out lining, are found throughout covering all the doors and windows. They happen to be a perfect match to the attractive and freshly painted white, textured walls and wood trims including the crown moldings. The main HVAC was replaced in November of 2021, and there is a Nest thermostat so remote programing from a phone or computer is possible. The new stackable washer and dryer also convey. Custom, rimless, glass, shower doors are on order for all 3 baths and should be installed soon. Pictures will be updated showing those soon. Selling beautifully and expensively furnished, it's turnkey, and pristine. This condo is spacious enough to be a primary residence, or the entire family to gather for beach vacation get-a-ways, or just the right size for two. There is ample closet space, as well. The master has double walk-in closets, one currently being used as a locked owner's closet, and the guests bedrooms have good sized closets too. These 3 bedroom, 3 bath, lock-out units can be rented several ways which will maximize rental income. And investors take notice, they are good rental, income producing properties as visitors return to Surfside Resort year after year. Projected rental income $76,000. - $91,000, depending on owner use. The unit will sleep 8 comfortably. Surfside is also a well managed and maintained, CAT 5 storm rated building with an active homeowner's association. Very important to know is that the beach at Surfside is privately owned by the homeowner's association and includes a one of a kind sky-walk over the scenic road to their beach and accessed from the pool deck. Surfside's beach attendant seasonally offers daily beach set-ups consisting of 2 chairs and an umbrella and free of charge to all the owners, which is very unusual. Rental guests are charged a daily fee if they would like a set-up or they can bring their own. On the pool deck you will find two heated spas, a seasonally heated swimming pool, kiddie pool, large sun deck and a picnic area all overlooking the Gulf. The "Beach Bar" is directly on the beach. It offers food and drinks. The poolside "Tiki Bar" also serves a similar menu, in season. The on-site full service restaurant, "The Royal Palm," with it's Gulf view dining room and bar, offers a full menu and they even deliver room service. Everyone loves that! Enjoy a massage in the day spa, or a style and cut, manicure and pedicure in the salon. It's a luxury experience at Surfside. And if you are not too relaxed at the end of the day and want more to do, walk down to the beach, put your toes in the sand, grab a chair around the bonfire and have a hotdog. The cook-out is happening every Friday night. The kids love it! Also available is the large, events ballroom for wedding receptions, private parties and business gatherings. Convenient is the full-service front desk located in the lobby, on-site management and maintenance team, on-site security personnel, heated and cooled interior corridors and even two attached parking garages, one for the owners and one for their guests, which offers ample parking. A newly added BBQ grilling and picnic area, with tables, can be found on the grounds adjacent to the pool deck. And for the health and sports minded, access a large fitness center, tennis or pickle ball courts, basketball court, and even a shuffle board court. The kids love those too! It's all part of the amenities offered at Surfside Resort. Last but not least, the owner's pets have a nice area to run and socialize on the grounds too. Don't miss viewing this one, it will not disappoint.
