Situated on a spacious .48-acre double lot near the Woodlawn Beach boat ramp, this one-of-a-kind property offers a rare combination of comfortable living, flexible spaces, incredible garage capacity, and a backyard that feels like your own private resort. The main home is a charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath Craftsman-style residence with an inviting open-concept layout, whitewashed oak laminate flooring, granite kitchen countertops, upgraded appliances and fixtures, and beautifully remodeled bathrooms. There's even a separate office or hobby room currently enjoyed by the owners' four-legged family members. Yes, the dogs have their own room!

The fully fenced backyard is an entertainer's dream, featuring a gorgeous in-ground gunite swimming pool with a heater, chiller, and sun ledge. From sunny afternoons lounging in the water to evenings spent entertaining friends, this is the kind of outdoor living that makes the Florida Gulf Coast lifestyle so special. And then there's the SECOND BUILDING! Located on the double lot, this incredible additional structure opens up a world of possibilities. Featuring two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and an amazing poolside bar complete with a refrigerator, dishwasher, and sink, it's easy to imagine this space as a home-based business headquarters, homeschool setup, creative studio, guest retreat, or a flexible arrangement for multigenerational living. Have an older child who wants a little independence? Need room for extended family? Dreaming of running your business from home? This property gives you options! The pool bar is a showstopper, featuring glass garage doors with electric openers that open to connect your indoor entertaining space with the pool area. Imagine hosting football Saturdays, birthday celebrations, summer cookouts, or simply enjoying a relaxing afternoon with your favorite people. With the refrigerator, dishwasher, and sink already in place, entertaining is a breeze! And if you have boats, vehicles, recreational toys, or need serious workshop space, prepare to be impressed. In addition to the main home's oversized garage and extra driveway for boat parking, the second building offers a single-car garage AND an enormous two-car garage with an 18-foot-wide by 8-foot-tall garage door, plus approximately five feet of additional garage space on either side. From boat storage and hobby projects to vehicle collections and workshop dreams, there's room to spread out! Other highlights include double-gated access to the fenced yard, an outdoor shower that's perfect for rinsing off after beach days (or muddy paws!), and a sprinkler system supplied by its own irrigation well. Located in Gulf Breeze near the Woodlawn Beach boat ramp, this property puts you close to boating, fishing, kayaking, and the beautiful waterways of Northwest Florida, with convenient access to Navarre Beach, Pensacola Beach, shopping, dining, and everything that makes the Emerald Coast such a wonderful place to call home.
