Few properties on Florida's Emerald Coast can claim what 11 Paradise Point Road delivers: a private covered boathouse with a full boat slip, over an acre of waterfront land, and direct access to Choctawhatchee Bay. Set at the corner where Garnier Bayou meets Poquito Bayou in historic Shalimar, this is the kind of lot that simply does not come available. Water on two sides, a seawall running the full length of the property, and a manicured lawn sweeping to the shoreline beneath a canopy of generational live oaks. The boathouse is deep, protected, and ready for daily use, whether that means a morning run to Destin Harbor, an afternoon on the open bay, an evening on the sandbar, or simply fishing off the dock at golden hour. For those who live on the water, this property was built for it. The setting carries history as well as beauty. Shalimar takes its motto from the water itself -- 'By the Beautiful Water' -- and the small bayou town has held to that founding character for nearly eighty years. Platted in the 1940s and quietly anchored along Garnier and Poquito Bayous, Shalimar has retained the same shaded streets and shoreline rhythm while the rest of the Emerald Coast grew up around it. Live oaks arch over the lanes, the gentle tides of the bayou shape the shore, and life here remains close to the water. The estate spans 6,591 square feet across three thoughtfully designed stories. A circular paver driveway winds through mature oaks and palms to a stately coastal Southern facade: grey board-and-batten siding, a standing seam metal roof, soaring white columns, and a covered wraparound porch finished in stone tile with open water views. Inside, a grand great room anchors the main level, with walls of French doors opening to the waterfront porch. Hardwood floors, beadboard ceilings, and crown molding carry throughout. The kitchen features granite countertops, warm wood cabinetry, and stainless appliances. A billiard room, formal dining space, and full laundry room complete the level. The primary suite offers direct bayou views, a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. A sweeping second-floor balcony delivers panoramic views of both bayous. The third floor houses a private observatory above the treeline. Two gas fireplaces, multiple patio areas, a firepit, and attached garage complete this exceptional offering, all within close proximity to Destin and Fort Walton Beach.

The quiet of a lakehouse, with boating access to Choctawhatchee Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. Set along a sheltered stretch of Poquito Bayou, this custom waterfront home pairs elevated views with a peaceful, forested outlook across the water. Here, the luxury is as much about the setting as the home: morning coffee overlooking the bayou, afternoons on the boat, and evenings gathering by the pool. Built into the natural hillside, the home welcomes you directly onto the main living level, capturing elevated water views without a climb to the principal living spaces. The primary suite, spacious kitchen, living room, formal dining room, and dedicated office make everyday living comfortable, while upstairs bedrooms provide separate space for guests. Fireplaces, travertine and hardwood floors, detailed woodwork, and generous balconies give the home its warm, traditional character. The finished walkout level is a destination of its own. A custom bar shaped like the stern of a sportfishing yacht anchors an English pub-inspired gathering space, complemented by pecky cypress details, a stone fireplace, and room for games and conversation. This level opens directly to the elevated pool deck, connecting indoor entertaining with long afternoons and relaxed evenings outdoors. For boaters, the property offers a covered boathouse and 16,000-pound lift, with approximately 10 feet of water depth reported at the dock. The facilities accommodate suitable boats approximately 34-36 feet in length subject to vessel dimensions and weight. Access to the bay passes beneath a bridge with approximately 21 feet of vertical clearance; buyers should verify clearance and vessel suitability for their intended use. Practical advantages include a roof approximately 3-4 years old, impact-rated windows and doors, a whole-house generator, and a three-car garage. Whether enjoyed as a full-time residence or a coastal getaway, 19 Poquito Road offers a distinctive combination: elevated waterfront living, a wooded bayou outlook, substantial boating facilities, and memorable spaces to bring people together.
