Experience unparalleled waterfront living in this custom-built estate, perfectly positioned on the protected deep waters of Ward Cove with breathtaking views overlooking the Bluewater Bay Marina, Rocky Bayou, and views of Destin in the distance. Designed intentionally to maximize its pristine surroundings, this home offers panoramic views and a lifestyle of coastal luxury. The thoughtful reverse floor plan elevates the main living spaces to the second level, framing stunning, elevated views of the water. Just off the chef's kitchen, a sophisticated custom wine cellar stands out as one of the home's many premium upgrades. Step outside onto the expansive, wrap-around balcony to enjoy gentle bayou breezes, or retreat to the shaded lower-level porch that mirrors the home's grand exterior footprint. The first level serves as a private, quiet sanctuary. It houses a spacious primary suite, a dedicated home office, and two additional guest bedrooms. For the boating enthusiast, your private dock--completely redone and expanded in 2020--leads directly to a deep-water slip fully equipped with dedicated water and electricity. Combining high-end luxury with mechanical integrity, the property features a brand-new roof (2026), a dual HVAC system with one unit newly replaced in 2026, and a Level II EV charging station in the garage. Located in The Parish--an exclusive, highly sought-after private neighborhood enclave in Niceville, FL--this exceptional waterfront opportunity awaits you.
