Step into Firenze, a timeless and classic, custom-designed, gulf-front home in historic Grayton Beach and experience the most stunning 250-degree vista in Grayton! Sunrises to sunsets over the Gulf can be your backdrop for morning coffee to coastal cuisine from the east and south balconies! The architecture and interior details of the home, along with its location are captivating! As a current rental, it solidly draws families and friends yearly, with many returning guests making annual memories. Its casual and comfortable interior makes finding a quiet spot with a favorite book or gathering for fun and entertainment a breeze! Stand up paddleboarding and kayaking on Western Lake, just two blocks away! Eateries and shopping are an easy walking or driving distance! Enter the gated courtyard, through the stunning mahogany front doors and into the foyer. Off the foyer to the left is an expansive owners' storage area. Located in the garage along with space for bikes and beach gear, is an accessibility ramp and convenient EV charger. Head up to the 2nd level via the new elevator or stairs to the open entertainment room, for an exciting game of pool or refreshing dip in the salt-water pool! When temps turn cooler, it can be heated for year-round enjoyment. A convenient laundry room, a spacious king suite, and (3) additional bedrooms and two full baths are also located on this floor.
The 3rd level's living-dining area is a beautiful open space with an incredible Gulf view! The long bar countertop is a great place for appetizers and beverages, while meals are being prepared. The chef's kitchen features ample cabinet storage and prep island, Viking range, Sub-zero fridge, wine cooler and warming drawer! Plenty of great restaurants in walking or driving distance, but cooking in, with indoor/outdoor, gulf view dining is priceless! Also on this level, a spacious master suite with fireplace, large closet and lockable owner's closet, plus an additional bedroom with Juliet balcony, half bath and laundry room.
Just above the 3rd level is a great, getaway loft with Juliet balcony, boasting the highest and best view to the east! Currently, a sleeping loft with a full bath & walk-in closet. It lends itself well to an additional hangout space!
Parking is premium in Grayton, but at Firenze, there is an ample parking area for (4) vehicles and an oversized, deep garage providing space for (2) more vehicles and temporary parking in the driveway for (1-2) more!
The spacious layout of this home comfortably accommodates up to 16 guests without feeling overcrowded. Master suite on each level and five bedrooms open directly to balconies! Home was built and has been owned by one family. Competitively priced, schedule to view this Grayton treasure and make it your own!
