Beachfront in Seaside w/Incredible Gulf Views, Pet Friendly + 2 Adult Bikes!

1 King, 3 Queens - Pet Friendly up to 70 lbs.

Welcome to Bowman's Place (previously Beach House), a luxurious, beachfront home located in Seaside, FL! You may recognize ‘Bowman's Place’, as it has been featured in notable publications such as ‘Southern Accents’, ‘Second Home’, ‘Colorado Home’, and in a special edition by Southern Accents featuring the “10 Most Beautiful Bedrooms.” It was also featured on the Discovery Travel Channel series, “Great Vacation Homes,” and on the HGTV series, “Homes Across America.” Enough said!

Guests can make their way to an arched front entryway that peacefully leads into this finely appointed home. An enchanting, winding stairway and foyer area welcome you into the first story, as well as a spacious king primary suite on the first floor with a private bathroom, an expansive sleeping porch, and an indoor, open-air shower. This enclosed screened spacious porch features two bed swings and two club chairs, and privacy curtains and is surrounded by lush tropical dunes. This space is one of the many gems of this beach palace. No sound machine is required in the primary suite, as the sound of the gulf blesses your ears at bedtime. Two additional queen bedrooms reside on the first story, both featuring full baths and one with its own private, screened porch that faces a peaceful footpath with comfortable seating for two- a delightful spot to enjoy morning coffee. This level of the home also includes a bonus queen sleeping nook across from the first-story full bath next to the primary suite.

An aesthetic spiral staircase leads guests to an inviting second story offering an expansive open floor plan for an open combined living, dining, and kitchen. The living area features a large sectional, a large mounted flat screen TV with Sonos soundbar, and a fireplace. Stunning gulf views are enjoyed from the living area. Adjacent to the living area are two custom, built-in desks perfect for working remotely if you can look away from your gulf views! Adjacent to the living room is the large beachfront open-air porch.

This expansive open-air porch features outdoor dining for six and chaise lounges for three more. From your private beachfront porch, you can experience breathtaking 360-degree panoramic Gulf views and stunning sunsets. Adjacent to the large open living room is a dining area for six surrounded by large windows and an additional bistro area for two more.

The blueprint continues, as this level also includes a fully equipped kitchen with a four-burner Wolf gas stove, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Miele dishwasher, and a separate bar area as well as a half bath for your convenience. Come experience a slice of heaven at ‘Bowman's Place’ for your next getaway!

Overall excellent stay. 99% of everything was as expected. There were a few minor annoyances like broken rollers on a couple of chairs and funky TV controls, but definitely not enough to outweigh all the other outstanding features. Living downstairs, entertaining upstairs. Small and cozy, but not cramped. Excellent proximity to beach. Midway between Seaside and Watercolor. Near perfect!

Location, location, location!

This home is located right next to the walkway that leads to the beach, making it so easy for people who go back and forth to the beach all day long! It is also just a short walk to the Seaside square which our teens frequented every night. The property management company provided several thoughtful extras and was excellent with communication. If your looking to be right in the mix of everything on 30A, look no farther!

Property manager was awful

The property manager was a local group. You would think that being local they would have good partnerships. We couldnt get beach chairs or umbrellas with who they advertised with. When we finally did reach the m they could care less. No mind you this was a private beach and the chair company had to used to get close to water. When they finally did get some chairs the broke with in the hour. THe management company also was not prepared when it gym access. Each person had to have their own card. Cards were not ready at check in and the office blew it off as someone at the gym should have been there to let them. Finding the Garbage cans was a joke. The AC was hard set at a certain temperature but that does no good when their is no way to block the sun. The house had the best view. My issues are with the management company, I would not stay there with the management company that runs this place

Outstanding location

Beautiful beachfront vista, convenient location. House, despite appearance in pictures, could use a bit of maintenance and TLC--breaking shower heads, loose drawers, perhaps a bit dated interior compared to other rental properties in this price point
