$875,000 - 5640 East Bay Blvd, Gulf Breeze

Let’s start outside, because that’s where this home truly shines. As you come through the electric gate, the property opens up in front of you — plenty of space for cars, projects, and storage with a 22x52 detached garage/workshop, an additional carport, and a separate shed, grapefruit and satsuma trees. But the water pulls you forward. You’ve got 83 feet directly on Escambia Bay, with a seawall in excellent condition, a wood walkway, metal corrugated wall, and rip rap for peace of mind. A decorative metal fence runs the length of the waterfront, complete with a pedestrian gate that leads to your private dock and boat lift — water, power, and a new 6,000-lb lift ready for an 18-ft boat. The dolphins, reds, trout, mullet, sheepshead, and blue crabs show up regularly, like neighbors popping by to say hello. Sunrises and sunsets bookend each day with color. Up on the main level, the screened porch stretches an unbelievable 48 feet — and the open porch mirrors it, giving you two different ways to take in the bay. Mornings with coffee, evenings with friends, quiet time with a book. Down on the lower level, there’s another covered outdoor space right at the waterline, perfect for grilling or hosting without ever leaving the breeze. Inside, the home is set up for flexibility. Two full bedrooms and two baths on each level make it easy for multi-generational living, guests, or simply extra privacy. Both floors have their own living room, kitchen, and laundry. On the main level, the open layout brings the kitchen, dining, and living together — simple, comfortable, and perfect for everyday living. The sellers added extra pantry cabinetry, shelving, and a utility sink & fresh interior paint to keep everything feeling clean and bright. Whether you're coming home from a day on the boat, hosting weekend guests, or settling in to watch the sky change over the bay, this property makes it easy to live on the water and with it.
