About this home
Nestled on a prime lakefront homesite in the gated community of Forest Lakes, this custom-built residence by Luke & Blues Custom Homes, designed by the acclaimed Archiscapes Architects, offers an exceptional blend of timeless architecture, luxury finishes, and an unrivaled waterfront setting. Lovingly maintained by its current owners and never offered as a rental, this impeccably cared-for home presents with a level of freshness rarely found along 30A. Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac overlooking the community's picturesque lake, it captures tranquil water views from multiple levels while being just moments from the sugar-white beaches and renowned dining along Scenic Highway 30A.
Designed for effortless coastal living and entertaining, the thoughtfully crafted floor plan features four spacious bedrooms, four full baths, a third-floor bonus room with full bath, and an iconic fourth-floor tower offering panoramic treetop and lake views. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen spaces are highlighted by wide-plank wire-brushed oak flooring, shiplap walls throughout, abundant natural light, and an impressive 18-foot Eurowall six-panel folding glass door that seamlessly opens the living room to the expansive screened porch overlooking the water. The chef's kitchen is beautifully appointed with quartz countertops, a Wolf gas range, Fisher & Paykel double-drawer dishwasher, farmhouse sink, wine refrigerator, ice maker, drawer microwave, custom cabinetry, handcrafted subway tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, oversized island, and generous pantry storage.
The serene primary suite enjoys its own private screened porch overlooking the lake, a custom-designed walk-in closet, and a luxurious spa bath featuring marble finishes, dual vanities, and an oversized shower with rain, wall, and handheld shower systems. Every bedroom offers exceptional comfort with custom closet systems and beautifully finished baths, while the versatile third-floor bonus room provides additional space for guests, a home office, or media room. Every detail reflects quality craftsmanship, including upgraded designer lighting, custom window treatments, whole-house sprinkler and security systems, two Rinnai tankless water heaters, built-in speakers, hidden storage, and extensive custom millwork throughout.
The charming tower retreat, surrounded by fourteen windows with remote-controlled shades, opens to a private balcony where sweeping lake and sunset views create the perfect place to unwind. Forest Lakes is one of 30A's most sought-after gated communities, offering a rare combination of privacy and convenience with resort-style amenities including a two-tier pool, pavilion with outdoor fireplace and grilling area, playground, walking trails, expansive green spaces, and a scenic boardwalk spanning the lake. With no short-term rental restrictions, this remarkable residence is equally suited as a primary home, vacation retreat, or exceptional investment opportunity.
Custom designed, expertly built, and positioned on one of Forest Lakes' premier lakefront homesites, 68 Okeechobee Circle represents a rare opportunity to own one of the community's finest residences.

Buyer research checklist
Items worth confirming for 68 Okeechobee Circle, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- Built in 2017: 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.
- FEMA flood zone X: flood insurance is not usually required, but get a quote anyway — FEMA reports roughly one in four flood claims come from outside high-risk zones.
- 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.
- Waterfront: confirm seawall or dock condition and permits, and ask who owns and maintains the shoreline.
- 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 $20,738/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price; the seller's current bill is not a guide 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 68 Okeechobee Circle and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 68 Okeechobee Circle was built in 2017 and has 4 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 68 Okeechobee Circle in?
68 Okeechobee Circle is in Forest Lakes 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 68 Okeechobee Circle differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $20,738 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. 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 68 Okeechobee Circle in a flood zone?
The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone X, outside the special flood hazard area, so flood insurance is not usually required by a lender. It is still available and worth quoting; confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and 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.

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.
