Some homes place you near the Gulf. 325 Walton Rose Lane creates an entire destination of its own.
Set on a quarter-acre homesite in Inlet Beach, just minutes from the Gulf and the shopping, dining and unmistakable energy of Rosemary Beach, this 4,780-square-foot retreat brings together architectural distinction, Gulf views, remarkable flexibility and a private resort experience rarely assembled in one property.
Designed by architect Frank Greene, built by Sunset Partners, and thoughtfully appointed by Taylor and Kelly Interiors, 325 Walton Rose was created to live beautifully while performing intelligently. Its innovative lockout design connects the main residence with a fully equipped west wing, providing six bedrooms, six full and two half baths, two kitchens, and two living areas. Open the entire home for effortless gatherings of up to 20 guests, maintain separation between owner and guest use, or take advantage of multiple configurations designed to broaden the property's vacation-rental appeal.
The main residence places its living, dining and kitchen spaces on the third floor, elevating everyday life to capture exceptional Gulf views. An open kitchen, generous gathering areas and outdoor dining terrace create a natural setting for entertaining, while balconies and decks throughout the home offer inviting places to retreat. An elevator, integrated audio, wine refrigeration, ice makers and thoughtfully placed beverage stations add convenience without compromising the refined coastal aesthetic.
The west wing is a destination in itself. A dramatic wall of sliding glass disappears into the structure, opening the living area directly to the pool deck and allowing the interior and exterior spaces to function as one. In the adjoining kitchen, a garage-style service window opens to exterior bar seating--an inspired detail that makes entertaining around the pool remarkably easy.
Outside, the estate becomes a private resort. The expansive heated L-shaped pool features submerged seating and a swim-up bar, complemented by a poolside kitchen, television and abundant lounging space. A gas fire pit, custom surfboard outdoor shower, and palm-lined sand volleyball court create distinct spaces for everything from sun-filled afternoons to relaxed evenings beneath the stars.
Above it all, the rooftop tower delivers some of the home's most memorable Gulf and sunset views. A wet bar, built-in seating, and signature suspended lounge bed transform the roof deck into an unforgettable setting for morning coffee, an evening beverage, or simply taking in the horizon.
Two garage spaces, a circular drive, and generous parking further distinguish a residence designed to welcome larger groups without sacrificing ease. Multiple balconies, private bedroom suites, and separate gathering areas allow guests to come together comfortably while still having room to retreat.
Beyond its architectural and lifestyle appeal, 325 Walton Rose offers an established rental history supported by a flexible floor plan, accommodations for up to 20 guests and an amenity package designed to compete at the upper end of the vacation-rental market. The property generated almost $280,000.00 in 2025, with approximately $240,000.00 already on the books for 2026. Rental statements, updated projections, and bonus depreciation scenario estimates are available.
325 Walton Rose offers what buyers are usually forced to choose among: a refined coastal residence, a high-capacity beach retreat, an established vacation-rental property, and a private amenity package that rivals a boutique resort. Homes can be renovated and pools can be added, but this combination of location, spacious lot, Gulf views, dual-residence flexibility, no HOA fees, and purpose-built outdoor amenities would be extraordinarily difficult--and costly--to reproduce.
For the buyer waiting for one property to satisfy both lifestyle and investment objectives, 325 Walton Rose is an opportunity that deserves immediate attention.
