Welcome to Ocean Mist--one of Panama City Beach's hidden coastal gems. This quiet, gated community of only 24 craftsman-style homes offers a rare low-density beach lifestyle with sidewalks, underground utilities, and a secluded community pool complete with a shaded pergola--all just a short stroll from the sugar-white sands and emerald waters of the Gulf.

The spacious primary suite serves as a relaxing retreat with a tray ceiling, oversized walk-in closet, double vanities, and a custom tiled walk-in shower with spa-like appeal. Two additional bedrooms and a well-appointed guest bath provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests alike. Outdoors, enjoy your own private retreat featuring a retractable sunshade that creates the perfect setting for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or outdoor entertaining year-round. Additional features include plantation shutters throughout, hurricane shutters, sprinkler system, durable flooring, dedicated laundry room, and a two-car garage with an additional refrigerator. The home is also equipped with a Generac-wired 110 electrical service for easy generator hookup, and both the generator and window-unit HVAC convey with the sale.
