This modern, loft-like home is nestled at the end of the cul-de-sac on Ozona’s coveted Harbor Drive, commanding the tip of the peninsula. There are unparalleled views of water, sky, pool and lush tropical landscaping from every room, with complete privacy. This home was recreated for the modern world, with top of the line amenities and upgrades throughout. The exterior is an artful combination of coquina shell, Balinese wall carvings, travertine pavers, cypress soffits and an aluminum standing seam roof. Entering this bright and airy oasis, you’ll be impressed immediately with the walls of windows with wraparound views of St. Josephs Sound and the Gulf beyond. The vaulted ceilings and open floor plan combined with the cool terrazzo floors add to the serene atmosphere in the main space, which also has a custom three-sided gas fireplace.

The high-end appliances include a Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine cooler, Wolf induction cooktop, microwave drawer, built in oven and Fisher & Paykel dishwasher with dual drawers. Multiple undercounter sinks offer several prep and entertaining options. A convenient half bath with an Electrolux washer and dryer is located at the back of the kitchen with a door to the pool and grill. The primary suite is a fabulous retreat in its own right, with French doors leading directly to the patio and the water, and a custom California closet. The ultra-modern primary bath has vaulted ceilings, skylights, double undermount sinks with lighted, dimmable mirrors, quartz counters, and a soaking tub.
