$4.395 Million Sale Breaks Price-Per-Square-Foot Record in Destin Pointe

DESTIN POINTE, Fla., Jan. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Engel & Völkers Florida today announced the record-breaking sale of 51 Lands End Drive in Destin, Florida. Real estate advisor, Janell Doucet with Engel & Völkers Destin represented the buyer and Robert Ward with RE/MAX By The Sea held the listing. At $1,154.45 per-square-foot, the home surpassed the previous record earned by it's neighbor, 50 Lands End Drive, in April 2019 for $1,016.87.

"My clients knew they wanted a beachfront property somewhere in the Destin to Panama City area," said Doucet. "The challenge we faced in this 'hot market' is extremely low inventory. By the time we discovered this Destin Pointe gem that 'checked all the boxes' according to them, it was unanimous that it was the one! Even though the purchase price set a new benchmark for that area, the home and landscape are priceless."

51 Lands End Drive is one of 17 homes in Destin Pointe. The three-story, custom home was offered fully furnished with professional interior design by Beau Interiors, a company that aims to capture coastal living as an elegant style. Each of the home's five bedrooms showcase beautiful views of the Gulf of Mexico. Boastful features include motorized interior shades, elevator, and a six car garage. Fine touches include reclaimed barnwood oak floors and pecky cypress beams.

"Engel & Völkers Destin is committed to continue raising the bar in the Destin market," said Leigh Ann Fincher, License Partner of Engel & Völkers Destin. "We achieved several records in 2021 and aim to repeat that success this year. Janell found her clients a beachfront home that backs up to Destin's iconic East Pass Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, connecting Destin Harbor to the Gulf of Mexico. The way the waters blend together here reflect gems of color. Only a few homes will ever share this idyllic spot."

Destin Pointe Resort is located at the tip of the Holiday Isle between the Gulf of Mexico and the Destin Harbor. In addition to breaking the record for price-per-square-foot in Destin Pointe, 51 Lands End Drive also earned the second spot in Holiday Isle; 118 Sandprint Circle, which currently holds the number one spot, sold for $1,161.63 in May 2021.

"This sale is a great example of how Engel & Völkers global network attracts qualified buyers for luxury properties," said Peter Giese, Chief Executive Officer at Engel & Völkers Florida. "With a continuous drop in active listing inventory throughout Florida, prices will continue to increase. As a global brand focused on luxury, we have the reputation and unmatched professionalism to continue to service this unique cliente in finding their dream home."
