Property Description

Just minutes from the beach, 157 Baird Road offers an unexpected sense of tranquility in the Beach Highland neighborhood along Scenic Highway 30A in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida. Cascading stone waterfalls, a picturesque pond, mature landscaping, Gulf views, and multiple outdoor living spaces give this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath home a character all its own. With approximately 2,650 square feet, no HOA, the property offers space, flexibility, and convenience for enjoying the 30A lifestyle. The water and landscape are at the heart of the experience. Approximately 11,000 pounds of fieldstone and aged flagstone were brought in from Alabama to create the custom waterfalls. Submerged pumps circulate water over the stone, creating the soothing sound of flowing water that can be enjoyed throughout the outdoor living areas. Inside, the three-story layout blends coastal character with comfortable gathering spaces. Shiplap, raised ceilings, built-ins, recessed lighting, and a fireplace add warmth and texture. The kitchen features a large island, breakfast bar, pantry, and wine refrigerator, connecting naturally with the living and dining areas. The three bedrooms and 3.5 baths are arranged across multiple levels, with the primary suite on the third floor. Balconies and covered porches offer views of the surrounding landscape, waterfalls, and Gulf. An outdoor shower and a private driveway with ample parking add convenience for days spent at the beach. An additional approximately 400-square-foot heated and cooled multipurpose room beneath the rear balcony offers flexibility and a variety of possibilities. Envision a tucked-away game room hideaway complete with arcade games and foosball, a cozy movie lounge, a hobby room, or a dedicated owner's storage area for personal belongings and beach gear. For vacation rental owners, this space could be especially valuable for keeping personal items separate between visits.
