In addition to a grand entrance, this home is wheelchair accessible with an accessible entrance and an elevator to reach each floor of this home.
Guests are in for a treat as they enter Big House by the Sea. A luxurious foyer with marble flooring and heaps of natural light fill the space as it leads to the first bedroom. This bedroom is spacious, cozy, and wheelchair accessible. A king bed and an en-suite bathroom are found in this bedroom. Notably, the en-suite consists of a barrier-free shower, providing accessible shower usage. Next to this bedroom, guests can take advantage of the first-floor laundry room that doubles as an additional entrance to an outdoor shower and private entrance to the Gulf of Mexico.
In addition to the bedroom on the first floor, the kitchen, dining area, and lounge area are also situated on this main level. An open concept floor plan creates a spacious environment perfect for entertaining. The kitchen boasts white cabinetry and high-end stainless steel appliances. Enough seats for ten, encircles a large island and allows plenty of space to gather or cook. From the kitchen, guests can directly access the lounging and dining space. The lounging area boasts a plush semi-circle sectional sofa and displays a high-definition television over a linear gas fireplace. Relax here and enjoy a movie, or take in the views of the Gulf of Mexico from the sliding doors across the back of the home. To the right, two luxurious dining tables that seat over 20 guests provide a perfect spot for friends and family to enjoy dining together.
Additional features on the first floor include cove ambient lighting in major living spaces, ground power outlets for recharging electronics, and additional rest areas on this floor.

Situated just outside the movie theatre, the wet bar is ideally placed to access beverages before, during, and after the movie.
Four bedrooms are located on the second floor. Two king suites face the Gulf of Mexico and features private balconies and en-suite bathrooms. Both en-suite bathrooms are spacious and grand with free-standing bathtubs, walk-in showers, and two separate sink-and-mirror stations. Situated between these king suites, an indoor swing sofa overlooks the emerald waters of the Gulf. Down the hall, a family pirate-themed suite is designed to transport guests into a coastal oasis. In addition to the king-sized bed, a cozy nook is hidden in this room and houses a full/full bunk bed plus an ensuite bathroom. The final bedroom, a gaming bunk suite, is ideal for young adults and those who enjoy video games. This suite offers one twin/twin bunk and two queen/queen bunks. The highlight of this room is the setup for gaming and entertainment. Five bean bag chairs provide comfortable seating around a large flat-screen TV and gaming monitor. Vibrant LED lighting creates the perfect ambiance for gamers alike.
