**CONCRETE PILINGS**LARGE ROOMS**UPDATE: DRYWALL IS COMPLETE** Nestled directly on the pristine white sands of the Gulf of Mexico in Panama City Beach, this stunning 4,700 sq ft beach house is a testament to impeccable engineering and timeless design. Built by a materials engineer with a keen eye for quality and longevity, every inch of this three-story home from its foundation to its roof has been thoughtfully considered. The home features marine-grade stainless steel carriage bolts for unmatched durability, ensuring it can stand strong for over a century - far outlasting typical galvanized fasteners. The house rests on 12x12 concrete pilings driven 20' into the ground, offering unparalleled strength, unlike wooden pilings that succumb to saltwater rot over time. It is the first residential house built on the Gulf in Bay County that features concrete pilings. The attention to detail is evident in every choice, from the three-pane Therma-Tru doors with hurricane-rated glass to the 8x8 Energy Star octagonal window - the largest ever made - adding a unique architectural element. The expansive 30x25' outdoor space on the beach is perfect for entertaining, complete with an impressive 12x23' sized pool and an 8x6' sun deck that sits right on the Gulf. Inside, the open-concept living/dining/kitchen area on the second floor is a showstopper with a 10x5' Fantasy Brown granite island in the kitchen, wraparound seating and 65'' wall-mounted TV, with two hurricane windows and a 10' sliding glass door that frame the gorgeous Gulf views. The third floor is the perfect sanctuary where the bedrooms are hidden along with an additional den/living area. The home is also equipped with a commercial-grade fire protection system, including sprinklers throughout every floor, balcony, and outdoor living space. Built with the future in mind, this home offers the perfect blend of aesthetic beauty, engineering excellence, and functional durability - designed to withstand the harshest elements, ensuring it stands the test of time while providing a luxurious, comfortable living experience. This is coastal living at its finest.
