About this home
Seagrove Magnolia offers a rare combination of modern construction and mature surroundings in the heart of Old Seagrove. Built in 2016 and arranged across four levels, the 4,166-square-foot home was designed for the way families gather, entertain, and return to 30A year after year. Multiple living spaces, expansive porches, and private bedroom suites create a residence that functions equally well as a beach retreat or full-time home.
Arrival begins with a circular drive framed by mature landscaping and a front porch finished with natural wood ceilings and flooring. Inside, oak floors, tall ceilings, and warm natural materials create an atmosphere that feels established and welcoming. The first floor functions almost as a private residence within the home, complete with its own exterior entrance, full kitchen, living area, king bedroom, bath, and laundry area.
Whether accommodating extended family, long-term guests, or multiple generations under one roof, the space offers a level of independence rarely found in a traditional beach home. The second floor serves as the center of daily life. An open-concept kitchen, dining area, and living room connect seamlessly to the surrounding porches.
Anchored by a Bertazzoni gas range and hood, generous pantry storage, and premium appliances, the kitchen was built to support extended stays and large gatherings. A king suite on this level offers the convenience of single-level living adjacent to the home's primary gathering spaces, while an office area and a full laundry room with sink, storage, and additional ice maker support both everyday living and extended stays. The third floor introduces another gathering space with a casual living area, game table, and porches on both sides of the home.
Two king bedrooms and a bunk room with four extra-long twin beds create comfortable accommodations for family and guests, while the layout allows different groups to occupy the residence at the same time while maintaining privacy and separation. Outside, the recently refreshed pool area serves as a private backyard retreat surrounded by mature vegetation. Covered lounging areas provide welcome shade, while artificial turf, a putting green, and a built-in gas grill connected to inline gas service create an environment designed for easy outdoor living.
The setting reflects the character that has long distinguished Old Seagrove from newer coastal communities. At the top of the home, a fourth-floor tower room provides one of the property's most memorable spaces. Finished with oak floors and wood ceilings, the room serves as a retreat above the surrounding canopy.
Filtered Gulf views emerge through the trees and rooftops, while the open deck offers an elevated perspective that captures the unique landscape of Old Seagrove. Beyond its architectural character, the home incorporates the practical systems experienced owners appreciate, including multiple HVAC systems, a dumbwaiter, fire suppression system, impact-rated windows, Neuma exterior doors, a standing seam metal roof, substantial owner storage, and an oversized garage. Located approximately 300 yards from the Nightcap Street beach access and roughly one-half mile from Seaside's Town Center, Seagrove Magnolia places the beach, shopping, dining, and entertainment of 30A within easy reach.
Offered furnished and supported by a strong rental history, the home presents an opportunity to enjoy the character of Old Seagrove while benefiting from the comfort and convenience of a newer home.

Property taxes
✓ Certified tax roll · county-average rateProperty taxes in Florida are reassessed after a sale, so a buyer’s first full-year bill can be higher than the seller’s. Budget from this estimate, not the current bill, before you make an offer.
Most of this comes from Florida’s Save Our Homes assessment cap resetting when the home sells — the current owner’s protected assessment does not transfer to a new buyer.
Certified 2025 tax roll values for this parcel (Florida DOR). The roll gives values, not the bill; the current owner’s bill above is estimated from the taxable value.

Buyer research checklist
Items worth confirming for 43 Forest Street, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- Built in 2016: confirm the roof and HVAC install dates and whether any builder or manufacturer warranty transfers.
- Confirm whether a mandatory HOA applies to this parcel and what it charges.
- Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and confirm with your insurer whether flood insurance is required.
- Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in Walton County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.
- Confirm square footage and room dimensions independently.
- Order a survey to confirm lot boundaries and easements.
- Review permit history with the county.
- Property taxes: the estimate on this page (about $29,750/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $7,950 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+36%). Exemptions and portability change the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser.
- School zoning shown here comes from district data and changes; confirm the assigned schools directly with the district before relying on them.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 43 Forest Street and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 43 Forest Street was built in 2016 and has 4 bedrooms and 5.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 43 Forest Street in?
43 Forest Street is in Seagrove 2Nd Addn in Santa Rosa Beach, Walton County. Too few comparable closed sales exist nearby for this page to show local sales statistics; a licensed agent can prepare a comparative market analysis.
Why might property taxes on 43 Forest Street differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $29,750 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $7,950 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+36%). Florida reassesses a home after it sells; for a homesteaded seller the Save Our Homes cap on their assessment does not transfer, and a buyer's own exemptions and portability are applied separately, so the two bills usually differ. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Is 43 Forest Street in a flood zone?
A flood designation has not been verified for this address. Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center (msc.fema.gov) and confirm with your insurer.
Can I rely on the figures on this page?
No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.

Opinion & estimate — do not rely on this page. Any figure on this page that is not a verbatim fact from the listing or a public record — including estimated property taxes, insurance, CDD/HOA amounts, mortgage payments, comparable-sales summaries, and market statistics — is an opinion and estimate provided for general informational purposes only. These figures may be inaccurate or out of date, are not appraisals, valuations, or financial, legal, tax, or investment advice, and should not be relied upon. Do not make any purchase, offer, financing, or other decision based on this page.

Estimate methodology. Tax estimates apply county millage to the list price (less the homestead exemption where the parcel is matched to the certified roll) and will differ from the actual assessed bill. Cost and market figures are derived from available data and simple calculations, not a professional appraisal. We make no representation that any estimate reflects fair market value.
