About this home
UNMATCHED 2-IN-1 COASTAL COMPOUND ALONG 30A WITH TURNKEY AIRBNB INCOME & NO HOA! Welcome to 168 Long Leaf Cir—a 2024 custom-built Scandinavian/modern architectural masterpiece backing directly onto a serene State Forest preserve. Forget cookie-cutter design; this 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom dual-residence retreat blends bold coastal luxury with mountain-cabin seclusion and high-performing income potential. Situated on a private 0.31-acre fully fenced lot minutes from Gulf beaches, this unique property offers the ultimate versatility for live-in investors, multi-generational families, or vacation rental buyers with zero HOA restrictions. The 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom main home features an open-concept flow highlighted by 11-foot vaulted ceilings, faux wood structural beam accents, and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light while offering uninterrupted forest views. The gourmet kitchen centers around a dramatic waterfall-edge island, high-end appliances, and a walk-in pantry, flowing seamlessly into the serene living and dining areas. A thoughtful split floor plan ensures complete privacy for the moody primary suite, which includes a custom walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bath with floating vanities and a glass-enclosed shower stall. Located above the detached garage, the completely independent carriage house operates as a high-performing, income-producing short-term rental. Reached via a private ground-floor entrance and butcher-block staircase, this studio suite features its own kitchenette, mini-split HVAC, full bath, and private 2nd-story balcony overlooking the trees. Outside, the property functions as a true outdoor oasis with a full-length back deck, green lawn space for pets, a custom storage shed styled to match the main house, and an elevated chicken coop. Whether you choose to house-hack by subsidizing your mortgage, lease both units simultaneously to maximize 30A seasonal rental yield, or enjoy a multi-generational sanctuary, this turn-key property is a rare find along the Emerald Coast.
