4-bedroom beachside retreat with peek-a-boo Gulf views

This charming, coastal villa offers easy access to pools, dining, and dune crossovers—plus peek-a-boo views of the Gulf and open lake vistas from multiple levels. With elegant interiors by a professional decorator, three king suites, and a large open-concept living space, Once Upon a Beach is your storybook-perfect escape to the coast. Every detail is designed for comfort and connection, from luxe bedding to a breezy porch and thoughtful amenities like an elevator and Sonos sound.

AMENITIES: At ‘South,’ enjoy resort-style pools that include the Cabana Pool with infinity edge, hammocks, and views of South Town Lake; the new Splish Splash Family Pool with splash pad; and intimate Neighborly Square Pool. Parks offer green space: Tailwind Park, South Shore Park, and others; a boardwalk around South Town Lake & Leisure Lake; a community pier and fishing pavilions, and a playscape. You also can access amenities at Cinnamon Shore North: pools, lakes, fitness center, on-site restaurants, and Town Center fun.

MAIN LIVING SPACE: The second-floor living area is expansive and bright, featuring vaulted ceilings, a plush couch and swivel chairs, and direct access to a breezy balcony. The heart of the home is the open kitchen, outfitted with high-end Thermador appliances, dual ovens, and a large island with seating for five. A stunning dining table seats ten, perfect for celebratory meals or casual dinners after the beach. Whether you’re cooking, lounging, or entertaining, the space flows beautifully for groups.

SLEEPING QUARTERS: With 4 full bedrooms—all with private ensuites—this home comfortably accommodates up to 12 guests. Three of the bedrooms feature luxurious king beds with down comforters, and two have private balconies for morning coffee or evening stargazing. The charming bunk bedroom include two twin beds over two fulls. With thoughtful touches throughout, each room is a peaceful retreat.

GREAT FEATURES: Two upper-level bedrooms offer private balconies, ideal for taking in the lake and Gulf breezes.
