This 2 bedroom, 2 bath stilt home is just 300 ft from the beach with no traffic & no roads to cross. The decor reflects the colors and natural beauty of this still-pristine area of the Gulf Coast. Forget dense decorations & mirrored walls... this one is clean & simple. Brand new in '97, built by a career builder for retirement, the home has some nice touches; real wood windows (and LOTS of them, a SIX foot bathtub for soaking away stress, natural forest area preserved in front of the house and a floor plan designed for easy vacation living. Best of all, the persistent sea breezes & sound of waves make for some serious relaxation.

The area is clean and private with natural vegetation, very safe and family oriented. Leave your belongings on the beach and no worry. Crowds? Forget it! The water is clear and appears emerald green most of the time. Walking in the wooded dunes is a real treat. It is very enjoyable to visit the State Park and hike out toward the tip of the Cape taking the path along the bay. If you're quiet, you will usually come upon groups of small Cape deer.

The beach at the St Joseph State Park was selected most beautiful in the U.S. 2001 by Dr Beach's annual rating. That beach is 2 miles north of Sea Dune...essentially a continuation of the same beach except at the State Park, in the absence of any development, the dunes remain in their natural state...in some places up to 30 ft high. There are no bars, motels, game rooms etc on the Cape and traffic is limited to people renting homes, state park visitors and service folks. Cape San Blas is sparsely developed with plenty of open areas for meandering.

You can fish right on the beach in front of the house and usually catch some whiting and the occasional flounder. Sometimes there are numerous blue crabs. The best fishing is at an area called the "stumps" about 2 miles south of the house. Look for the rock barrier wall on the gulf side...that's where it is. It's also fun to take a boat out into the bay where the fishing is also very good. Boat rentals are available at Presnell's Marina (between the Cape & Port St. Joe).

The bay is great for snorkeling. There are areas in the State Park (further out on the Cape) that are shallow where you can walk out waist deep, then lay down to snorkel. At Sea Dune, the Cape is only 900 feet wide. From the Cape back to the mainland it is 10 miles across the bay at its widest point so you are really "out in the water".

From Sea Dune's driveway you walk 200 feet to the main road, turn right, then it's about 350 feet to the "Tradin Post", a folksy convenience store. For a supermarket, the closest would be in Port St Joe, about 10 minutes drive.
 For shopping, antiques and excellent restaurants, it's about 20 minutes to Appalachicola, a sleepy one-time cotton port that time forgot...plenty of quaint homes nestled in old sub-tropical neighborhoods. There are a number of good restaurants...I recommend "The Hut" for excellent seafood...not at all fancy, but a table by the bay and stuffed flounder like you've never tasted.

When the weather is favorable, we like to sleep with all the windows open (Sea Dune has 12 windows and one sliding door). Listen to the waves and feel the breeze... There is nothing quite like it! Stroll out onto the deck late at night and look up; you will be amazed at the night sky. We have seen Venus so bright that it casts a reflection on the Gulf!
"Sea Dune" has been designed to harmonize with its surroundings. The lot is wooded and affords a good deal of privacy. The interior is comfortable with open areas and colors that reflect the sea and sky.
So, don't take our word for it... experience it yourself... the "Sea Dune" house at beautiful Cape San Blas!
