Spectacular waterfront estate featured on HGTV’s Extreme Homes! Welcome to 4300 Breakwater Drive—Destin, Florida’s most prestigious waterfront estate. Located in the exclusive Waterford of Kelly Plantation, a gated enclave within a gated master-planned community, it offers a pristine golf course, clubhouse with restaurant, tennis, and new pickleball courts.

This magnificent Tuscan-style home sits on 1.8 acres with over 400 feet of water frontage on Choctawhatchee Bay and Jones Bayou. A brick-paved path leads to the boat dock, and the brick motor court guides you to an arched limestone entrance flanked by lion sculptures and iron Cantera doors.

Inside, the grand foyer features dual stairways and views straight through to the pool pavilion and bay. The open first level includes formal living and dining rooms, a large wet bar with a walk-in cooler, a family room, and kitchen with a circular floor-to-ceiling aquarium as a focal point.

The gourmet kitchen features custom cabinetry, double-stacked granite counters, and professional-grade appliances. Nearby is a custom-designed home theater with stadium seating and a 113-inch screen.

The primary wing offers a spacious bedroom with a waterfront sitting area, fireplace, three ceiling-mounted TVs, a luxurious bath with jetted tub, large walk-in shower, dual vanities, and two walk-in closets. Two more bedroom suites and an exercise room are also on the main level.

Upstairs, you’ll find three more bedroom suites, a wet bar with lounge, a massage room, large storage, two private offices with separate entrance, and a balcony overlooking the bay and pool.

The outdoor space is a true tropical oasis with a beach-entry pool, swim-up bar, summer kitchen, lanai with fireplace, and seamless indoor-outdoor living via sliding glass doors.

Two garages each fit three cars. A private guest house above the north garage includes two bedrooms, a full kitchen, living area, and private entrance.

Finishes include ruffled stone floors, alder and hardwood doors, intricate ceilings, and top-of-the-line details throughout. Bonus features include conditioned pet rooms, a geothermal system, smart home tech, commercial sprinkler system, and a brand-new whole-house generator (2024).

Set on a lushly landscaped point with a boat dock at the end of a private cul-de-sac, this is a rare and exceptional offering for those who demand the finest.
