Property Description
Along the sugar-white sands of Grayton Beach, where the Gulf has kept watch for generations, there lies a rare Old Florida estate—two Gulf-front lots stretching more than 120 feet along the water and nearly half an acre of beloved coastal ground. This is the heart and soul of 30A, specifically Grayton Beach, a place shaped by sea breezes, long memories, and the quiet protection of surrounding State Park lands.
Set at the very end of a sleepy lane, with no passing traffic to break the spell, the property offers a kind of privacy seldom found on the Gulf today. From all three levels of the home, wide-open views unfold across Grayton's legendary beaches and the ever-changing waters beyond. The main house was built for living easy and gathering often, with seven bedrooms, six full baths, and two half baths spread generously throughout. A brick-paved drive leads you home, ending at an expansive garage of nearly 2,000 square feetroom enough for six or more cars, a workshop, a boat trailer, or whatever passions the day may bring.
The second floor holds the true heart of the home: a broad kitchen, dining room, and living space, all opening to uninterrupted Gulf views. Three bedrooms, two full baths, and a half bath complete this level, while upstairs, the third floor offers four bedrooms, each with its own en suite bath, gathered around a second living area perfect for children, guests, or quiet evenings after long days in the sun.
Deep, wraparound porches stretch across both the second and third floors, inviting mornings with coffee and evenings with stories, all accompanied by steady Gulf breezes and sunsets that never grow old. Below the house, just steps from the sand, you'll find outdoor showers and a grilling spotsimple comforts that speak to a life lived outdoors.
Tucked alongside the main residence is The King Edward, an authentic 1935 Gulf cottage moved to this very spot in the early 1950s. Preserved just as it was, with photographs to prove it once stood as the only home on this stretch of the Gulf, the house was set upon cement cinder blocks until a few years ago and has weathered every storm since. Cherished and cared for by the same family for decades, it carries a spirit that can't be built todayonly kept and passed along.
To walk this property is to feel the old Grayton still breathingunpolished, welcoming, and rich with story. The views are unmatched, the history is real, and the easy, barefoot way of life that comes with it is something to be felt, not told. Grayton Beach stands apart for its unspoiled beauty, enduring artistic spirit, and a way of living that favors grace over hurrytogether forming the bohemian character for which it is beloved. The New York Times describes Grayton as Upscale but Unfussy.
