It&#8217;s soothing and it&#8217;s relaxing and it&#8217;s really well done,&#8221; Pensa explains, adding it was custom-built for the sellers who used it as a secondary home. &#8220;I have been doing this a long time and this house literally took my breath away. I was just absolutely stunned and the quality of everything that they&#8217;ve used is just incredible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">There are five bedrooms and seven full bathrooms, all capitalizing on the views.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;I wish I could buy it. I wish I could live there. I&#8217;m a beach girl, so this house to me is absolutely everything I would want,&#8221; she says with a laugh. &#8220;Plenty of room for my family, for my kids, nobody&#8217;s on top of each other.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Gulf-front estate spanning multiple beach lots lists for $18.25 million.\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/realtor_com_468\/7a6f12ffef9c1a136fb43cd12be2c472.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The garage is on the lowest level.

(Premier Media Group)<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The lowest level of the house is the six-car garage, with the large common living spaces above it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;You can sit 10 people on the kitchen island without sitting in the table that sits in the window overlooking the beach,&#8221; Pensa says. &#8220;There&#8217;s plenty of room for everybody and it doesn&#8217;t come along that often. They seem to be building much more modern now. This is really like old style Florida coastal elegance.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The color palate is primarily white and blue with raised ceilings and custom millwork. The furnishings are negotiable and the home could either be a vacation property or full-time residence.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;I think you&#8217;d be very lucky if you could live every day of your life at the beach. I mean, that would work for me,&#8221; she says laughing. &#8220;My favorite thing about the house is that I could get up every single day and be in a place that to me is magical. When I&#8217;m on the beach, any worries, any issues, anything just kind of melts away. So, to me, this is really like heaven on earth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Gulf-front estate spanning multiple beach lots lists for $18.25 million.\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/realtor_com_468\/fcfb8a6142988b63f7d2936905c20357.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Each bathroom has spa-like amenities.

There&#8217;s a covered entertainment area that has a gas fireplace and has ceiling fans and an outdoor kitchen,&#8221; she says.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;The pool has an infinity edge, so if you&#8217;re sitting in a chaise lounge and you&#8217;re looking across the pool. It looks like the water just drops right off the edge. It&#8217;s incredible. It is literally a different world.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Gulf-front estate spanning multiple beach lots lists for $18.25 million.\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/realtor_com_468\/9490079ecf19f7da81ea5169b322b92b.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The pool is on the main level and has an infinity edge.

When you look at it, it just draws your eye right to the house,&#8221; Pensa explains. &#8220;Some [other driveways] are just paved. Some of them are just gravel, but this is completely done. There&#8217;s nothing left to do in the house and it&#8217;s very, very well maintained.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Everything is ready for the next owners.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;I think this really is just a place that you&#8217;re going to create memories. That&#8217;s really what it is,&#8221; she says. &#8220;It&#8217;s really an escape to get away and just kind of unplug and recharge.
