Here, a resort-style pool and hot tub shimmer within a privacy-fenced backyard, flanked by an outdoor kitchen and lounge built for golden-hour entertaining. And above it all, the rooftop terrace with gulf views — part covered retreat, part open-air perch — offers an outdoor kitchen, a crackling fire pit, and the kind of sunsets that make guests lose track of time entirely.

Expertly designed and built by Coastal Elements with architecture by Greg Jazayeri, 431 Pisces Drive is a newly completed bayfront estate where contemporary coastal design meets elevated craftsmanship. Set on over half an acre with 100+ feet of private water frontage, the home sits along a quiet cul-de-sac of just fourteen bayfront residences, offering private deep-water access, protected serenity, and effortless proximity to 30A, Destin, and Panama City Beach. From your private dock, mornings begin on a paddle board and weekends turn into spontaneous trips to the Gulf for offshore fishing, exploring sandbars, or boating to your favorite local restaurants at sunset.

Outdoors, the estate is designed for both quiet reflection and memorable gatherings: a summer kitchen, bayfront fire feature, private dock ready to host a substantial vessel, a resort-style pool, and a separate fire pit lounge beneath the preserved live oaks. The curved brick paver driveway completes the sense of arrival.
