Welcome to Sand Castle, an exquisite 3-story home nestled right by the sun-kissed shores of the World's Most Beautiful Beaches. This architectural marvel, newly remodeled and tastefully restored, stands as a testament to classic design paired with modern luxury. As you traverse the polished hardwood floors of the main floor on the second story, you're met with the aromatic allure of culinary magic waiting to happen in the gourmet kitchen. Custom cabinetry harmonizes with high-end granite countertops, setting the stage for unforgettable meals.

A tour through the home reveals its massive layout – a sprawling 7-bedroom, 4-bathroom expanse that makes it an ideal refuge for large groups. Each room comes equipped with smart 4K TVs, a treat for tech-savvy guests. The pièce de résistance is undoubtedly the upstairs master bedroom, featuring a private balcony that offers tantalizing peek-a-boo views of the Gulf. An expansive en-suite invites relaxation, with a standalone tub and a custom walk-in shower offering an unrivaled spa-like experience.

Outdoor living ascends to new heights on the second floor. Comfortable, private patio furniture invites you to relax and imbibe the coastal atmosphere. Descend to the bottom floor to find a different kind of paradise - an outdoor living area featuring a covered patio with furniture, an atmospheric tiki bar bedecked with vintage Edison lights, and a custom cobblestone pool deck surrounding the seasonally heated pool. A BBQ area with a bistro table ensures unforgettable meals under the stars.

Just a minute’s stroll away from the private gate off the pool deck will lead you down a beach path, opening up to pristine sandy shores exclusively used by the community. In addition to the beach's allure, the property boasts two game rooms - one on the second and bottom floor. The second floor offers a maritime-inspired gaming haven, replete with rich, nautical hues, wood accents, built-in bookshelves holding a DVD collection, a pool table, and a high-end poker table. Downstairs, enjoy a light-hearted competition at the ping-pong table, air hockey, or foosball.

Strategic location - just 6 minutes to St. Andrew's State Park, 10 to Publix Sports Complex, 20 to Pier Park and Frank Brown, and 30 to 30A and the Farmer's Market - makes it the perfect base for enjoying a plethora of local attractions such as fishing, water sports, restaurants, sightseeing, and more. Sand Castle isn't just a vacation home, it's an experience that sets a new benchmark for coastal luxury living.

Felt like home
Above and beyond with supplying pool and beach accessories. Bunk bed room with closet water damage to ceiling. Some family members got sick and hope it was not from mold.

Dated sandcastle with new parts
At first glance all seemed like photos. Once walking through the door turned out to be smoke and mirrors. This home did have lots of updates but we’re not up to standard. Door knobs fell off curtain rods were all bent up and the furniture was just gross. Couches were filthy and worn out. Brown chair in den… pitiful. Beautiful soaker tub in master was unusable! Stopper was broken and hot water valve was messed up. Same with 3 rd floor shower. Valve was backwards which we figured out on day 3. Outdoor by the pool was neat. Again all worn out cushions on furniture and tables had bent legs and warped boards. Kitchen was furnished but at a bare minimum. Plenty of appliances but not much as far as cook wear. Two hand towels and two pot holders. I purchased and left a tea pitcher and baking sheet. Beds and bedding were nice. That was a huge plus. Tv and games were nice too! Pool was clean and a nice size! Lots and lots and lots of stairs!

All homes we offer are well equipped for family stays and have something that everyone in the family will enjoy. We hope you trust us with your next family vacation and allow our homes to be the place where you relax and create new memories!

Why they chose this property

The location can't be beat on the east end of the beach. Lots of nearby restaurants and family activities. The best part? Private sand path that takes you to the beach!

What makes this property unique

The awesome pool area, all the game tables inside, and you can't beat the sandy path to the beach!
