2539 Bayou Blvd Pensacola, FL 32503

The original owner selected this site for its' strategic location that provides some of the most sweeping water views on Bayou Texar, its high elevation and, large 3/4 acres with 150' of water frontage. It's one of the most valued locations on the Bayou and central to everything in Pensacola. The French Provincial style is timeless and the home was carefully constructed to last for generations by using outstanding craftsmanship and high-end materials. The floor plan was very carefully thought out and is still very much in keeping with the newer homes of today. The home was designed to take full advantage of the amazing water views with numerous large windows and outdoor living with two 9' x 34' covered areas on each level overlooking the backyard. The first level verandah is accessible thru 3 sets of mahogany doors in the living room to enjoy the prevailing summer breezes and spectacular sunsets. The lower level has an outdoor natural gas grill. All the rooms are spacious with high ceilings (14' in living room and 10', downstairs 9'ceilings.) A study and the expansive master suite encompass the entire south end of the first level - both with water views. The other two bedrooms (each with its own full bath) are located downstair on either side of the large family/media room. There is also a large 729 sf workshop on this level with a garage door access - possible 4th bedroom. There's nothing like living on protected waters, especially when you have direct access to the Gulf waters with world class fishing. The two 2 covered boat lifts are equipped with electrical and water, storm resistant Thruflow decking (2018), plus a wave runner lift, and uncovered boat slip for guest. The 60' gunite, salt water lap pool has a deep end section and ample deck area for relaxing. After a swim you can head to the gym/spa on the lower level which is accessible to the backyard and features a full bath, dry sauna and steam shower. This home is what Florida living is all about.
