Rosemary Beach is a 107-acre development situated on the East end of Scenic Route 30A. The community rests on 3,000 feet of private beach front along the Gulf of Mexico and a short 30-minute drive from the Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport. Established in 1995, Rosemary Beach features unique architectural considerations that were implemented to conform and utilize the natural paradise that lay before the developers and architects that founded Rosemary. This aspect of Rosemary Beach particularly interests me, I love the idea that Rosemary Beach is a hybrid of a unique architectural vision coupled with the natural demands of the property it was developed on. The result is a remarkable Shangri-la, where architecture abounds and residents can absorb paradise with a bliss that the nuances of planning a vacation can sometimes steal away from you.
Rosemary Beach is a self-contained community built around a Town Center. Town planners and architects provide design and construction guidelines with consideration to reflect the taste of its owner. The homes draw architectural influence from those in St. Augustine, the West Indies, New Orleans and Charleston. To me, this conveys the refined but warm soul of these inspirational cities which, draw much of their personality from the geography upon which they we're built, much like Rosemary Beach.
During development, roads were laid out to conform to the natural contours of the land. The community is connected by an intricate network of pedestrian lanes, footpaths and boardwalks that lead to all amenities in no more than a five minute walk from any point. The initial vision that inspired Rosemary Beach was to encourage pedestrian traffic, thus community interaction. For that reason, parking is restricted to alleyways behind private homes this also aids developers efforts to put no more than a five minute walk to anywhere in the community.
Amenities include: nine beach access points along the 3,000 foot strip of private beach, a Tennis center and gym, nine parks and common green areas, and four pools- one of which offers year round swimming. The characteristic curving cobblestone roads are speckled with wine bars, outdoor cafes, ice cream parlor and charming shops that make you want join the Epicureanism philosophy. Overall, this community is family friendly, convenient, and above all beautiful- a great location to invest in your next home.
