Set on nearly half an acre of premium waterfront, this turnkey home comes fully furnished for immediate use as a high-performing short-term rental, second home, or full-time residence. All essential items: beds, couches, dining pieces, and some décor stay, with just a few select personal items excluded. Inside, the home is as functional as it is beautiful. The seller, a professional chef, intentionally prioritized a full butler's pantry over a traditional laundry room to accommodate the many family events hosted here, including Thanksgiving feasts and intimate family weddings. This isn't just a house; it's a place made for celebrating life and bringing people together.

From the moment you enter, you're met with expansive bay views that flood the home with light and create a peaceful connection to nature. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly from the chef's kitchen to the inviting living area and out to the back patio, ideal for entertaining or unwinding.

Step outside to your private dock with boat lift and launch into the wide-open Choctawhatchee Bay. Spend the day cruising to Crab Island, paddleboarding at sunrise, or docking for dinner at Baytowne Wharf. And when the beach calls, the sugar-white sands of the Emerald Coast are just minutes away.

Looking for golf, shopping, or fine dining? You're only moments from Regatta Bay Golf & Yacht Club, Grand Boulevard, Silver Sands Premium Outlets, and Destin Commons not to mention top-tier restaurants like Emeril's Coastal and Seagar's Prime Steaks & Seafood.

Whether you're seeking an income-producing rental, a coastal second home, or a primary residence with no compromises, 31 Bayshore Drive delivers the rare combination of waterfront access, beachside proximity, and luxurious freedom all in a no-HOA neighborhood known for its privacy and charm.

Homes with private docks, rental approval, and this level of lifestyle access rarely hit the market especially at this price.
