Luxury updates, deeded beach access and superb Destin Florida location. Those three things are what you can feel when you stay in unit 433 in St. Martin Beachwalk. My favorite feature is how peaceful I feel sitting on the private balcony relaxing and overlooking the sparkling pool, and as I breathe in the fresh salty air blowing in from the Gulf. I love how you notice that you are just steps from the pool, and just a few minutes walk from the St. Martin Beachwalk deeded Destin beach access. Every luxury aspect of this beach property was chosen with intention. Since the owners purchased it, they have had it professionally decorated, added Luxury Vinyl Plank flooring, shutters, updated the living room furniture and accessories, fully updated the kitchen with granite countertops, backsplash, painted the cabinets white, added stainless steel appliances and bar stools. They didn't stop there either! They updated the three bedrooms with new furniture and accessories, plus they updated the master bathroom and the guest bathroom too! Just beautiful! Upon entering the property I'm immediately struck by two things: The quality and care which has been taken to keep this property in excellent condition, and the peace and comfort I feel in this amazing beach property. Whether you are looking for a short term rental investment property, which produces great, or a fabulous beach vacation property for yourself, unit 433 in St Martin Beachwalk provides it all!
