Perched on the shores of a private lake within the exclusive gates of Destiny East, this three-story estate delivers the rare combination of refined luxury and genuine livability—the kind of place where grandparents sip morning coffee on the balcony while the kids cannonball into the heated pool below, and everyone ends up together around the fire pit as the sun sets over the water.
Designed for Multigenerational Gatherings
Seven bedrooms and over 4,000 square feet of thoughtfully appointed living space mean your family can truly be together without ever feeling crowded. A private elevator connects all three floors, making this home effortlessly accessible for grandparents, toddlers, and everyone in between.
The main kitchen anchors the second floor with granite countertops, a gas range with pot filler, and an open flow designed for those mornings when pancakes turn into a production and coffee turns into long conversations. The first floor operates as its own private wing—complete with a second fully equipped kitchen and dedicated laundry—ideal for in-laws, teens who've earned some independence, or families traveling together who want their own rhythm.
Your Private Waterfront Retreat
Step outside to a scene that feels more like a private resort than a rental property. The freeform pool sits at the water's edge, flanked by a heated spa perfect for unwinding after a day at the beach. Stretch out on the loungers, gather around the fire pit as evening settles in, or settle into the covered balcony with comfortable seating and sweeping lake views. The kids will claim the bikes before you've finished your coffee—four adult bikes and two kids' bikes mean the whole family can cruise the neighborhood together.
Sleeping Arrangements — Rest Comes Easy Here
After sun-soaked beach days, bike rides through the neighborhood, and evenings spent by the pool, everyone has a comfortable place to unwind. Thoughtfully arranged across three floors, the bedrooms offer both privacy and togetherness—perfect for families traveling across generations. Every guest sleeps in a real bed, so everyone wakes refreshed and ready for another day in Destin.

Resort Amenities, Private Address
Your Destiny East membership unlocks a waterfall-edge community pool, heated spa, tennis and pickleball courts, a fully equipped fitness center, basketball court, playground, and a private clubhouse theater. It’s the infrastructure of a five-star resort with the privacy of your own neighborhood.
Minutes to Destin’s Emerald Waters
The famous white-sand beaches and crystal-clear Gulf waters are just a few minutes away, with easy access at the Crab Trap. Return sun-kissed and hungry to some of Destin’s favorite restaurants, explore local shops at Destin Commons, or spend the day snorkeling, biking, or discovering the natural beauty of the Emerald Coast.
This is the kind of place where mornings begin slowly, afternoons are filled with sunshine, and evenings end with everyone together—exactly the way a beach vacation should feel.
Nearby are 6 miles of paved trails - perfect for both walking and biking. Pretty, unspoiled Henderson Beach State Park is just down the road as well.
If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach Access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom.
