Create unforgettable memories and unwind in style at Vista del Mar- a stunning retreat, perfectly nestled on a prime corner lot along the picturesque Seaside Avenue! This beloved family getaway features two expansive front porches and a unique three-tier tower that offers breathtaking sunset views of the Gulf of Mexico and vibrant sights of Seaside's charming cottages.
As you approach this grand, classic home, you'll be greeted by an inviting open-air porch, complete with ample lounge seating and a comfortable swing, all overlooking the private, fenced-in front yard and the beautiful Seaside Avenue. Step inside to a spacious entry foyer that leads you into the heart of the home.
To the right, you'll discover a cozy living area equipped with a flat-screen TV, opening gracefully to a fully stocked kitchen with stainless steel appliances, catering to all your culinary needs for memorable family dinners. Adjacent to the kitchen, a stylish dining area features a wooden table that comfortably seats six, while an outdoor dining space on the screened-in porch is perfect for al fresco meals with seating for eight. At the back of the home, a second well-furnished living room with another flat-screen TV provides an ideal space for relaxation or watching different programming than in the front living area. The first floor also boasts a serene king bedroom with a private en-suite bathroom, ensuring comfort and convenience for guests.
Venture to the second floor, where three additional spacious bedrooms await, each with its own private bath. Enjoy access to the expansive second-story front porch that overlooks Seaside Avenue, complete with comfortable furnishings, a swing, and a table set for four—perfect for your card games or working on that beach jigsaw puzzle.
The large primary suite, sprawling nearly 600 square feet, features a luxurious king-sized canopy bed, a cozy seating area for reading or watching TV, and a sizable walk-in closet. The impressive primary bathroom offers dual vanities, a whirlpool spa soaker tub, and a glass-enclosed walk-in shower complete with a rain shower head. Step out onto your private porch adorned with a charming loveseat swing, outdoor dining for two, and two rocking chairs, all designed for moments of relaxation and solitude.
For the ultimate experience, ascend the spiral staircase to the third-floor tower, a dreamlike setting with a hammock and seating that affords stunning sunset views down East Ruskin and across downtown Seaside, as well as panoramic sights of the vibrant cottages below. If you're seeking a quintessential Seaside experience, there's truly no better place than Vista del Mar. Your unforgettable getaway awaits!
