Are you ready for something spectacularly different at the cape? Pull down the long private drive and the Jewel of the Cape stands ready to greet you! When you pull up, you may believe you are stepping into a private residence on Bourbon Street, but go up the steps and you will quickly realize you are gulf front on the fantastic beach on the north end of Cape San Blas! It truly is the best of both worlds and nothing compares to this experience! 2,500 square feet of continuous porches/decks completely surround the entire both living levels of the home and there are eight separate full size sliders, each with side windows leading onto the decks. There is a private gated dune walkover connected to the lower living level deck. Both the upper and lower level decks are fully furnished with poly-wood seating areas, a swing, and chaise lounges. There is also a hot/cold outdoor shower and dog wash area on the lower deck, just beyond the dune walkover gate.  There is one security camera used at the property in the parking level carport area entrance because the entrance to the property there is isolated and not visible to any other property. That camera is plugged in inside the kitchen of the home, but there are no cameras inside the home.
Stepping into the living level of the home, you will be greeted by historic New Orleans style decor and a brick floor, with a welcoming sitting area, complete with a 48" TV. Just beyond is the open kitchen with extra large island with 4 counter stools and a gas range. On the other side of the island is antique cabinetry below and open shelving above, and at the far end of the kitchen is a dining table and chairs. Through the sliding door in the kitchen, there is a huge dining area on the exterior porch. Also, on this level are two bedrooms. First, gulf front king master and private bath with a separate jacuzzi tub, tiled shower and double sinks. Second, a large east facing bedroom with a double over double bunk bed with twin size trundle underneath , with a bedroom door to the hall bath. This full bath also opens to the living area and contains a tiled shower, as well as a full sized washer and dryer.
Leaving the living area, going up the open stairway in the living room, you will see the ornate cornices and a wrought iron gate leading to the upper level. When you reach the top, you will see another complete living area which is open to the pool table area. Each area has it's own TV. There are two more bedrooms on this level. First is the gulf front king master and master bath with the same footprint as the master downstairs. Second, is another king master with access to the shared hall bath. This bath has a tiled shower and another full sized washer and dryer. The exterior deck on this level has a bar area, a full size hot tub and the most spectacular view! Rest on the poly wood chaise lounges, or sit in the hot tub and watch the dolphins go by! From the 2nd floor, you will also see the wrought iron spiral stairs leading to the crow's nest room. As you can imagine, the views only get better the higher you go, so pick any window up here and enjoy!!! The crow's nest room is for ADULTS ONLY, because spiral stairs leading to the crow's nest room are NOT FOR KIDS. Please do not allow children access to or to play on the spiral stairs!!!
Jewel of the Cape is literally around the corner from the entrance to St Joseph’s Peninsula State Park, which has been voted #1 beach in the US. Jewel is not a new, standard, run of the mill beach house. This is "old world Florida" at it's best! With it's natural surroundings, huge dunes and the historical significance of this home, you and your family/friends will never forget your stay at Jewel of the Cape!

Jewel of the Cape

We stay in a lot of VRBO‘s. This property was a rare treat. It is built from a lot of repurposed materials with a New Orleans feel. We loved it! It has great access to the beach, plenty of deck space with high-quality furniture. With it tucked down a long driveway it is an extremely private space. It has great access to the beach and the emerald water and white sand beach makes it an amazing place to stay. Would definitely come back again!

A Unique Property!

This house is awesome.  We enjoyed our stay. Lots of room and the house has everything you need and more!!

Family vacation

The most beautiful views from multiple gigantic decks! We spent most of our time on the upper deck staring at the ocean or laying in the hammock. Having the beach just steps away was awesome as well. We stayed this spring break with one other family. The house is absolutely gigantic and there is plenty of room. The house has some new owners that are making some updates. I’m sure when they get finished, it will be absolutely gorgeous. It is a really neat eclectic home- owned by former art gallery owners, so there are some pretty cool touches... like doors that are decoration that don’t open or go anywhere. the kids thought the house was really cool the best hide and seek hiding spots you’ve ever seen for sure !! Perfect for two families to stay, the huge private beach area in front of the house was priceless.

Beautiful views!

Comfortable beds. Nice linens. Gorgeous home. Steps to beach. Would highly recommend.

Truely a Jewel

We loved the house! Play property is gorgeous and you have use for days from the porches! The pictures on the listing do not do the house justice. I would recommend a exterminator come and spray.

Loved the house
