After a day of sun on beautiful Rosemary Beach, stroll directly down the boardwalk and enter the cool, lush gardens in the walled courtyard of Grace Cottage, in the center of Rosemary Beach. The constant sound of the flowing waterfall at the PRIVATE POOL will instantly cool you and your family as you enjoy the many shady outdoor areas. Relax in the courtyard gardens, pool terrace, upstairs dining deck with WET BAR/MORNING KITCHEN, front balcony or third floor TOWER for a private nap. During cooler months the small pool can be enjoyed as a hot tub with heating, bench seating, and poolside fireplace. Grace Cottage (named for our daughter) was designed by Rosemary Beach architect George Israel, who is known for his many unique and eye-catching details. The interiors were created by John Fernandez, the designer of many of Rosemary's distinctive homes. We hope you will enjoy our home with its "organic-contemporary" styling and many comfortable spots to relax and enjoy friends and family. Inside the main house, you will find a large, romantic first-floor master suite including a king bed, flat screen TV, and walk-in closet. From the private bathroom, step down into the beautiful tiled shower with double shower heads, then step out for one more shower – outdoors with large curtain for a very private open-air shower! You'll rest peacefully with the sound of the waterfall just outside the bedside window. Upstairs you'll find two more bedrooms, one with king bed, one with two twins plus built-in bunk beds in the bedroom entry. Both bedrooms have full baths (all have hand sprays making it easier to get the sand from your little ones!) and open to the large front balcony. Additionally upstairs, you will find a convenient morning kitchen/wetbar with small Sub-Zero refrigerator with icemaker. Open the door and step out to the spectacular "dining deck" with comfortable lounging and table seating with views of the rooftops of Rosemary. It's a great place to end the evening watching the sunset, the fireworks on the 4th, or greeting neighbors and new friends as they stroll the streets of Rosemary. Continue up one more flight of stairs to our third-floor tower with small, low bed for napping after your long day on the beach. You might find yourself spending the night here as the evening air cools. The living room, kitchen, and dining area on the first floor feature large HDTV flat screen TV with surround sound, comfortable seating for family gatherings, and large table for family meals – we love to cook, so you'll find the kitchen equipped with all the tools you'll need including Cusinart. Don't want to cook? You are just steps to Summer Kitchen, Cowgirl Kitchen, Onano, Wild Olives, Shades, and two new restaurants – Paradis for gourmet dining and full bar, and La Cocina for great Mexican. And in the morning . . .one block to the new coffeehouse, and, maybe even more important, around the corner from Spa Solace for a massage or facial! We think our house is great for couples with children, with room for the kids to play on the upstairs balcony while the adults enjoy some wine and cheese on the "dining deck." And everyone can enjoy a meal or cookout together in the large kitchen and pool terrace. The house is located in the center of Rosemary Beach (within the town, unlike many listings which are often miles outside the town). Here you can walk to the beach, four pools, fitness center, tennis center, seven restaurants, the wine bar, coffeehouse, bike shop, spa, shopping and, of course, Sugar Shack! Short drive to Publix, Target, and new movie theaters at Pier Park (if you can stand to leave Rosemary). Our private INTERNET WI-FI is also available for your use as well as flat screens in all bedrooms. We love our home and hope you will too. Please check the availability calendar and e-mail or call me with questions or booking. NEED MORE ROOM? Talk to us about renting the Carriage House also. |
