Custom coastal home at the head of a 1000-foot trail leading to the intercoastal waterway, a protected nature-preserve with a white sand seashore. You may never have this chance again–this home is so rare to be situated in and around forestland yet be so close to the water. For nature lovers! In a private gated community, Heron’s Forest, with a beautiful pool, plus tennis/pickleball/basketball courts and nature trails. High & dry with almost 3400 square feet of custom living space, this southern charmer has an expansive wraparound porch with cypress ceilings and floors, fern waterers plus a large screened porch. Spacious and well-planned, it has 4 (or 5) bedrooms and 3.5 baths, a huge great room and a gourmet-sized kitchen w/large island & walk-in pantry. Now used as a home office, this bonus space could be used as a bedroom (has a closet), a formal dining room, or bonus room of any kind. Main-floor primary suite has spacious cedar-lined closets, jetted tub, separate glass shower & dual vanities. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms, one with an en suite bath. The other bath has dual vanities. High ceilings and filled with natural light featuring long plank hardwood floors. Accents include transoms, trey ceiling, sky lights, dormers, stained glass and high-profile trim. A sturdy cypress-ceiling breezeway leads to the oversized two-car garage (with attic), including a 250 square foot workshop/home gym/storage room or golf cart garage. One of the largest lots in HF, on a cul-de-sac, rare live oaks complete the canopy overhead. Irrigation on well. Privacy fenced, leave it to nature or create your dream oasis. Watch the sunrises & sunsets beam through the trees. This truly one-of-a-kind property will have you living your best life in a coastal paradise! (Sidewalks run for miles outside of the neighborhood, close to NAS, 10-minute drive to Perdido Key, 5 to Big Lagoon State Park, 20 to Downtown Pensacola.)
