217 palm beach drive

Located at the quieter west end of Panama City Beach, this gently used beach house is fully furnished and ready to welcome part-time or full-time owners. Oozing traditional charm, this coastal gem has a broad driveway for parking and a two-car garage for storing bicycles and beach toys. After all, the beautiful white sandy beach is just a three-minute walk from the door. The covered side entrance opens into a hallway for you to pause before entering the open-concept living room, which has design and decor chosen by Susan Silverthorn Designs. Luxury plank flooring and a soaring tray ceiling provide a sense of abundant light and space. French doors offer additional natural light, opening directly onto the rear deck. The kitchen is larger than average and includes a handy breakfast bar for families to grab a bite to eat or socialize. Soft-close, white, Shaker-style cabinets and stainless steel appliances add a sense of luxury, along with the quartz countertops and glass tile backsplash. Move into the dining area for family meals or relax on the corner sofa and watch TV together after a busy day of shopping, swimming and shelling. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms allow everyone to spread out and enjoy their own private space. The master suite has a neat sliding barn door hiding the ensuite bathroom, which has a double vanity and a shower with floor-to-ceiling tile. Built in closets and drawers surround the wall-mounted TV, providing ample storage in the bedroom. Two additional bedrooms have larger closets. They share a modern family bathroom, which includes a tub and shower combo. A separate laundry room houses the washer and dryer. The enclosed rear yard provides a private space for kids and pets to play safely. Easy to maintain, it has a raised wooden deck for adults to relax and chill. This well-designed home includes energy-efficient LED lighting throughout, a WiFi-enabled garage door opener, a Smart thermostat and WiFi-enabled irrigation. This golf-cart-friendly neighborhood is just minutes from two large grocery stores, local golf courses and access to Scenic Highway 30A. Camp Helen State Park provides ample recreation nearby, and Rosemary Beach is well known for its boutique shopping and dining experiences.
