Tucked within the storybook setting of Ruskin Park, where winding pathways lead to charming boutiques and the scent of salt lingers in the air, this stately four-story residence is a testament to timeless coastal sophistication. Designed by acclaimed New York architect Alexander Gorlin, the home is one of the largest in Seaside, Florida -- its grand facade blending classic architecture with the effortless charm that defines this iconic beach town.Just 350 yards from the sugar-white sands and emerald gulf waters, the home welcomes you with a gracious columned porch, setting the tone for the exquisite design that unfolds within. Step inside, where craftsmanship and style intertwine -- soaring coffered ceilings, polished wood floors, and arched doorways create a space that feels both refined and inviting.
The first level offers two spacious bedrooms, each a private retreat with its own ensuite bath. French doors open from one suite to reveal serene park views, inviting the outdoors in with a gentle breeze and dappled sunlight. Upstairs, the second-floor living spaces were designed for both elegant entertaining and effortless coastal living. A cozy card game nook beckons for evening gatherings, while a charming breakfast alcove in the beautifully appointed kitchen makes mornings feel like a seaside reverie.
With multiple balconies designed for lingering alfresco moments coffee in hand as the town awakens or a sunset toast to another perfect day this home is an invitation to savor the rhythm of Seaside. Offered fully furnished (with select artwork excluded), it's a seamless entry into a lifestyle where boutique shops, renowned dining, the town's iconic chapel and the beach are all just a stroll away.
This is more than a home it's a sanctuary in the heart of Seaside, where every detail speaks of grace, comfort and the enduring beauty of coastal living.
