Destin Upscale Real Estate
Every detail is normally customized in Destin luxury real estate. You will find showers and baths that have detailed tile work, fireplaces made with shells, meticulously laid by hand, solid wood and handmade doors with custom carvings, and backsplashes made from glass or porcelain tiles. Generally, these homes are highly automated, allowing owners to remotely control speakers, security, electronic devices, and more.
Those Ocean Views...
In most cases, the ocean views are some of the best in the area. That means you will see stunning sunrises and sunsets or the changing colors of the water during an incoming tide. Locations that provide these views are rare and prices are at a premium.
If you are looking for a 4,000 sq. ft. mansion on the Gulf, with Brazilian hardwood floors, turquoise green Onyx countertops, equipped with smart electronics, baked enamel tile roofs, heated floors, media room, office with built in mahogany cabinets and in ground swimming pool, there is probably a Destin luxury home that fits this bill.
