Colorful Artist’s Escape by the Sea - Main Cottage.

Nestled among swaying palms just steps from the Gulf of Mexico, this charming beachside cottage captures the essence of coastal Florida living. Filled with color, creativity, and warmth, the home offers a relaxing retreat infused with an inviting artist’s spirit. Bright marble floors and lofty ten-foot ceilings set the stage for original artwork and handcrafted furnishings that make every corner feel unique and personal.

***This home is part of a two rental space unit. The back private 300 sq. foot studio is not part of this Third Home listing. The owner is the only person who will be staying quietly in this studio during your stay. Do not reserve this home unless you are more than happy with the owner perhaps residing in the private studio.

The open floor plan creates an airy flow between the kitchen, dining, and living areas. A rustic eight-foot dining table, granite countertops, and built-in bookshelves add both character and comfort, while a king-sized bed with a designer mattress ensures restful nights. Wraparound decks and a private enclosed dining porch provide peaceful outdoor spaces for enjoying the coastal breeze, whether over morning coffee or a quiet evening meal.

Guests are welcomed with thoughtful touches such as beach chairs, umbrellas, and towels, making it easy to wander down the quiet lane to Eastern Lake Beach. The casual coastal décor, paired with abundant natural light, creates a laid-back yet refined setting where relaxation comes effortlessly. Every detail speaks to the cottage’s character, offering a warm, unpretentious ambiance that feels both restful and inspiring.

Beyond the property, Seagrove Beach is ideally situated along the iconic Scenic Highway 30A. Visitors can bike to Seaside for boutique shopping, explore the striking architecture of Alys Beach, or enjoy dining and galleries in nearby Rosemary Beach. Outdoor enthusiasts will find endless options, from hiking and kayaking around Eastern Lake to exploring the pristine sands of Grayton Beach State Park and the natural beauty of Deer Lake State Park.

This coastal cottage embodies the soul of 30A, charming, creative, and effortlessly welcoming. With its perfect location, colorful personality, and serene surroundings, it offers a delightful retreat where every stay feels like an escape into the heart of Florida’s Gulf Coast.
