I am real proud of this listing and feel it may be one of the best values on 30A! Only $499,000 2400 sq. feet 4 bedrooms!

This is a hard to beat beach cottage in one of South Walton’s finest neighborhoods. Cassine Village is one of "secrets" of the beaches. The village comes complete with two pools, two tennis courts and a nature trail/ fitness trail that winds over to Eastern Lake. The village is also well known for great rental numbers and history of rental repeats. This spacious home has hardwood floors, 10ft. ceilings, open floor plan, generous porches, walking distance to the beach, and much more. “Key Lime Pie” has plenty of parking, an outside shower, ample storage and may just be the best value on the beach.

This is possibly the lowest per square foot price in Seagrove that is walking distance to the beach and was built recently-about 2001.This house was built by Greg Goodwin who has an excellent reputation.

Cassine is about 30 feet above sea level and if you think you need flood insurance it is only about $300 a year.

I live in this nice quiet little village. We have tennis courts, swimming pools, our own nature preserve plus we adjoin hiking/biking trails into the state forest. The beach is just a short stroll away and Seaside is a quick bike ride away.

Property has been selling quite well in Cassine Village considering the market. At least four lots and one house have sold in the last 12 months. Two new houses have just been built and another is in the planning stage.

How far of a walk to the beach is it?

Here is an aerial showing beach access. There is another one just east of this one. Maybe Hi and Dry can point it out.

Maybe 5 minutes on foot?

I used the ruler tool in Google Earth to calculate the distance exactly -- it's 1626 feet or .31 mile. If you walk at a "walking" pace (as opposed to a leisurely pace) at about 15 minutes per mile, Bobby's right -- it's about 5 minutes.

Thanks BR! I was looking at that ruler and my son decided it was time to play! Active 2 year old always wins! Especially when wife is out of town!:yikes:

Cassine is for sure, a hidden gem. I don't know of another development like it on 30A. Howard Carr put much thought into the project, and left off the greed. He has developed it over many years, rather than developing and running away. I love the Cypress Trees found on the property, and the trails which connect into the State Forest. Proximity to everything like the beach, tennis, pools and shopping, is near. The development also has a good mix of year round homeowners.

Cassine Garden is the mostest perfect property, not just on 30A, but just about anywhere. Carr's vision and Goodwin's construction are a perfect match. I have been in most of these homes, and have not seen more solid or better built homes. If I was in this tax bracket I'd be writing a check right now. Cassine is a place you would want to live full time. I miss "Southern Comfort". These wrap around porches on both levels are the best!
No where else on 30A can you be right smack in the middle of everything, but once you pull in your like a million miles away. One of my biggest regrets was not buying a townhome when I had the chance, especially one on the lake. I love it there. I rarely hit 30A with out a drive through, and often get out and walk. You can walk anywhere from there.

I miss living on 30A period.:blush:

BobbyJ, that house would make a nice Birthday Present for your older, much better looking brother. wink wink nod nod.

We were rained out on Saturday but showed the home 3 seperate times. I showed it twice today. A plus property that will soon be off the market. Classic example of the good stuff selling!

I am familiar with most of the homes and condos in Cassine, and agree that this is the perfect neighborhood on 30-A. Not many people talk about it -- it is simple and has everything you need. If I didn't have so many pots on the fire right now (i.e. crazy family and crazy job), I would take it off your hands. Someday I'll stop renting and take the leap into SoWal ownership.

We bought a lot in Cassine in the summer of '07 - we're so siked about it! Anyhow, we are looking to rent a house there over the summer and since everyone here is so familar with Cassine - is there a particular house we should look into renting?

Thanks and this is the best board ever!

Hey Bobby! How's the house your dad is building coming along? Is it the same house he was starting on when we were there? We'll be back in the summer and want to rent in Cassine to get a feel for it! We're not quite sure of the dates yet, but we're thinking as soon as Mia gets out of school.

This home is under contract! 77 days. I was getting a little worried on this one. Best deal I knew of.... Contract looks solid! Of course, we love back ups!:D

Still amazed at how busy it has gotten in such a short period of time. :clap:
