Summertime Tour of Homes in South Walton June 25-27

Building upon the success of its annual Valentine Tour of Homes each February, the Cultural Arts Alliance rolls out a Summertime Tour of Homes sure to delight vacationers and locals alike who are looking to beat the heat in the steamy afternoons while touring five spectacular homes in South Walton. The tour runs Thursday, June 25 through Saturday, June 27 from 1-5pm each day.

From a Gulf-front house in Blue Mountain Beach just recently decorated by designer Erica Powell, to a Gulf front home in Grayton Beach in addition to homes in Alys Beach, WaterSound Origins and Eastern Lake, all are some of South Walton’s most beautiful and unique and are currently on the market.
 

Blue Mountain Beach home on the Gulf

The Grayton Beach home is gulf front and one of the tour's most stunning. The Blue Mountain Beach Gulf front is grand with its updated interior design, three floors offering sweeping views of the Gulf and outdoor terraces. The Alys Beach courtyard house is a modern stunner located in Arboleda Park just steps from the Caliza Pool, and is designed by architect Darrell Russell of Boheme Designs.  It has a heated pool that doubles as a water feature with a waterfall running down a rock wall, an outdoor shower and a doggy shower. The Eastern Lake house features sweeping views of the lake and Gulf Views. Located in a golf community, the WaterSound Origins home was custom built by John Giles and Matt Parenzan and designed by architect T.S. Adams.
