613 Hernando Place With its distinctive design, thoughtful features, and modern appeal, this Gulf front home is an exceptional find. Located on beautiful Dauphin Island in the DeSoto Landing gated community, this nearly 5000 square foot house was built in 2024 on a 1.2+/- acre beach front lot with the idea of creating a large beach home where style meets functionality. This is presently the only house on the Island running off solar power with 3 Tesla Powerwall backup batteries. This saves you money on power company bills and will seamlessly power the entire house and the EV charging station during power outages. The owners insisted on quality construction, so the home was built to Gold Fortified standards and was awarded a Gold Fortified Home-Hurricane designation on 7/23/24. This protects your investment and saves you money on homeowner insurance. To remove any accessibility issues, an elevator for people and cargo is available from the ground level on up to the 1st and 2nd floors. As you tour the 1st floor of the west side of the house you will be pleased with the soothing color scheme, the open concept kitchen and great room, the durable LVP flooring, quartz countertops, ample kitchen cabinets, fireplace, access to the expansive deck, and lots of impact resistant, large windows and doors to view the beauty of the beach, water, and sky. Additionally, there are 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a very special master suite & private deck, and office & bonus room. While under one roof, the east side of the house can be fully self-sufficient so that it can be enjoyed as a private retreat. Along with being an exceptional beach home, its location in the DeSoto Landing gated community gives you an even greater exclusive feel. Enjoy a game of tennis or a dip in the sparkling pool in this quiet community. The house is being sold fully furnished. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.
