565 E Royal Fern Way, Santa Rosa Beach, FL 32459

$7,499,000

In WaterColor, the most compelling homes are not simply designed for a week at the beach. They are created for the rhythm of everyday life on 30A. Slow mornings, time outdoors, family gatherings, and the ability to comfortably host the people you love. At 565 East Royal Fern, that… Read More sense of permanence is immediately clear. Built by Borges Brooks Builders and designed by TS Adams, the residence feels less like a traditional vacation property and more like a thoughtfully composed coastal compound. Architecture, craftsmanship, and livability were considered in equal measure, creating a home that is equally suited for quiet daily routines and larger gatherings with family and friends. The interiors are warm, relaxed, and designed to be lived in. Oak floors by Seashore Flooring extend throughout the home, complementing a natural palette of whites and wood tones. Expansive openings allow sunlight to move easily through the living spaces, while subtle architectural details give each room its own character. Several furnishings were custom designed by the homeowner and handcrafted by Amish craftsmen, adding a personal layer that makes the home feel collected rather than staged. At the center of the main living space, the kitchen balances beautiful design with the functionality needed for everyday use. A waterfall island offers generous room for meals, homework, conversation, and entertaining, while dome pendants create a clean architectural focal point. A 60-inch Wolf range and Liebherr refrigerator complete the appliance package. The carriage house features quartz countertops and coordinated finishes, allowing it to function comfortably as a private space for extended family, guests, or live-in support. With eight bedrooms, including the private carriage house, the home provides the flexibility that full-time living often requires. The primary suite is positioned as a true retreat, featuring a spa-style bathroom with a soaking tub, electric fireplace, dual closets, and direct access to a private patio. Guest accommodations are thoughtfully distributed throughout the property, offering privacy without feeling disconnected from the rest of the home. Practical construction decisions further set the residence apart. The elevated, foam-insulated slab was designed to enhance stability and help prevent floor movement over time. Real stone in the downstairs guest bathroom reflects the emphasis on authentic materials, while EPAY decking throughout the outdoor living areas was selected for its durability in the coastal environment. Outside, the resort-style pool and covered pavilion become a natural extension of the home. The spaces are designed for more than entertaining, offering room for morning coffee, afternoons by the pool, outdoor dinners, and the everyday moments that make living on 30A so special. 565 East Royal Fern offers the rare opportunity to experience WaterColor not simply as a destination, but as home. It is a residence defined by thoughtful design, lasting craftsmanship, and a more personal, livable interpretation of coastal luxury. Read Less
