Life at 1576 Salamander Trail is about more than just the home. It is about waking up inside one of Northwest Florida's most desirable gated communities and enjoying a refined lifestyle surrounded by nature, golf, and coastal living. Located within Wild Heron, this new construction residence sits on a beautifully landscaped homesite with direct golf course frontage along the middle of the par 5 third hole of Shark's Tooth Golf Club, offering peaceful views and a true sense of resort living.
Built by Focus Construction and thoughtfully designed by Coastal Architects, the home spans 2,477 square feet of heated and cooled living space with elevated finishes and intentional design throughout. Inside, 11 foot ceilings on the main level and vaulted cypress wood ceilings in both the living room and primary suite create volume and warmth. Expansive floor to ceiling windows flood the open living space with natural light while framing picturesque views of the lanai, backyard, and golf course for a seamless indoor outdoor living experience.
The kitchen is both functional and beautiful, serving as the centerpiece for everyday living and entertaining. Premium Thermador appliances, custom shaker cabinetry, champagne accent hardware, and a large walk in pantry with dedicated outlets make this space ideal for hosting and daily gatherings. Hardwood floors, solid core doors, Delta champagne gold plumbing fixtures, and refined material selections continue throughout the home, reinforcing the quality of construction at every turn.
The first floor primary suite offers a private and tranquil retreat with a vaulted ceiling, spacious walk in closet, and a spa style en suite bath with rainfall shower and designer tile that extends to the ceiling. An additional first floor bedroom with its own en suite bath provides flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a loft style common area complete the home's thoughtful layout and provide comfortable space for family and visitors.
Outdoor living is equally impressive and perfectly suited for coastal entertaining. The covered porch features a full summer kitchen with grill, refrigerator, ice maker, and sink, creating an ideal setting for dining, relaxing, and enjoying golf course sunsets. The exterior architecture pairs timeless Hardie board siding with light brick accents, and the two car garage is pre wired for an electric vehicle charging station.
Wild Heron itself is a 734 acre gated neighborhood along the shores of Lake Powell, the largest coastal dune lake in Florida. Residents enjoy a private lifestyle with access to a community pool, fitness center, boathouse, and miles of scenic walking trails. For golf enthusiasts, Shark's Tooth Golf Club sits within the community, and nearby Watersound Club has added The Third course designed by Davis Love III. Combined with Camp Creek Golf Club, members now have access to 54 holes of championship golf. Memberships are available separately from HOA dues. The community board, in partnership with St. Joe, has also approved a future private cart gate with a dedicated path for Wild Heron owners and Watersound Club members, providing direct access to Watersound Parkway and 30A.
This home offers an exceptional blend of luxury, comfort, golf front living, and access to one of the Emerald Coast's most sought after communities. Whether used as a primary residence or second home, this is a property designed for everyday enjoyment, effortless entertaining, and lasting memories.
