New Owners Take Up Residence in Emerald Bay Waterfront Paradise

The previous owner of 1400 Emerald Bay Drive in Destin purchased the property directly from the builder and spent a great deal of time enjoying the stunning waterfront views. However, life took a different direction, and the home was recently put on the market and quickly snatched up. The views are just one amazing amenity of this home. Spanning more than 6,200 square feet, with 1,500 of that in the garage alone, the home has a vast array of attractive features. The exterior offers a spacious swimming pool and lanai with lush landscaping framing the property. 

The new owners were bowled over by the characteristics found inside. From 10- and 12-foot ceilings to hard coat stucco and hardwood floors throughout the main living areas, there were numerous features about this home, which appealed to the new owners. With a 152-foot pier complete with boat slip and Jet Ski lift to the travertine flooring and Corian countertops, this four-bedroom home was constructed with no detail overlooked. The den and bedrooms are carpeted and the kitchen boasts top-of-the-line appliance brands and a movable island. Built in 2001, Realtor Susie Kirkland was responsible for selling the home from the original owner and this time as well; the home sold for $1.2 million. Drawing on her years of local real estate knowledge, she was able to carefully navigate each new owner through the purchasing process so they could enjoy their new waterfront paradise.
