Description

Welcome to 81 Jack Knife Drive -- a single-story 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home with a 2-car garage in the heart of Watersound Origins, one of South Walton's most sought-after residential communities on Florida's Emerald Coast. With every room on one level and each bedroom featuring its own full bathroom, this home offers both comfort and thoughtful design for owners and guests alike.
The open floor plan seamlessly connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas, anchored by an indoor gas fireplace and elevated with upgraded light fixtures throughout, making it ideal for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. The kitchen is a true standout, featuring quartz countertops, a large walk-in pantry, a built-in bar area, and Frigidaire Professional Series stainless steel appliances. including a natural gas range and electric oven.
Step outside to the enclosed screened porch -- the perfect spot to unwind with a cup of coffee and listen to the wind move through the towering pine trees just beyond the yard. In the evenings, gather around on the paver patio surrounded by the kind of stillness and quiet that first drew the owners to this home. The fully fenced yard backs directly to community green space and a walking trail, offering a rare sense of privacy and a serene, park-like setting you'll never tire of.
The Watersound Origins lifestyle is hard to beat. Walk to the resort-style pool and fitness center at Village Commons. Enjoy the Davis Love III-designed Origins Golf Course, tennis and pickleball courts, miles of nature trails, and dock access to Lake Powell -- one of Florida's rare coastal dune lakes. The beach is just five minutes away, and the shops and restaurants of Watersound Town Center and Scenic Highway 30A put world-class dining within easy reach -- including plenty of local favorites just off 30A where you can skip the tourist crowds during peak season. Wonderful neighbors and a short-term rental restricted community create the genuine neighborhood feel that makes this place so special.
Whether you're seeking a forever home on the Emerald Coast or a peaceful retreat just minutes from the Gulf, 81 Jack Knife Drive is coastal living done right.
