While most of us might not be writing a check for a beach house this week, if you’re anything like us, we love to scroll through and check them out for inspiration in either our current home or for a home in the future.
- …and South Walton’s newest high-end listings make for good scrolling.
For our first luxury edition of Hot Listings, we picked five homes in Miramar Beach, Santa Rosa Beach and Inlet Beach that hit the market this week ranging from $2,380,000 to $8,450,000.
Each one has something you might not see very often: a coastal dune lake out back, a four-story floor plan, French limestone floors or a private walkover to the Gulf. Here’s what caught our eye.
