About Kokomo Kove

Two corrections shape this page, and both come from the same parcel roll. The first is size. Okaloosa County returns 26 parcels under this plat name, 24 carrying a house and 2 recorded vacant, on about 4.1 mapped acres. That is roughly twice the count this plat has been described with, and it changes how thin the resale record actually is. The second is the street. The county's address layer places a point on every lot here, and those points divide between two named ways, Kokomo Row and Sunfish Street, so this is a two-street plat rather than a single closed lane. The water needs stating precisely because it is the detail most easily overstated. A mapped water body of about five and a half acres lies within 50 feet of the plat boundary, close enough to see and to shape the light, but it does not enter a single parcel. Tested lot by lot, no parcel here touches, overlaps or contains any mapped water body at all. So there is no recorded lake frontage on this plat, only adjacency to one, and a buyer told otherwise should ask which record supports it. What the plat does carry is an unusually clean regulatory position for ground this close to the beach. FEMA's effective mapping puts every parcel in Zone X or the shaded 0.2 percent annual chance area, with no special flood hazard area anywhere under the plat and no published base flood elevation. The state's coastal construction control line comes no closer than 200 feet and does not enter any parcel, so none of the department's seaward siting jurisdiction reaches these lots, while the Gulf itself is within about 700 feet. The largest public holding close by is James Lee Park, 6.6 acres of it held by Okaloosa County, and this one can be measured properly: the county parcel's boundary comes within about 580 feet of the plat. Three City of Destin beach accessways sit nearby as well, but the county files each of them as a single recorded location rather than as an outline, which means the walk is shorter than the numbers the record gives. Tarpon Trail's location sits inside a City of Destin parcel of about two acres whose near edge is about 520 feet from the plat, bracketing that walk between roughly 520 and 820 feet. Pompano Trail is filed about 1,150 feet out and Barracuda Trail about 1,880 feet, each of them nearer on foot than its own figure. Construction has been intermittent rather than continuous. Recorded year built dates start at 1990 and cluster through the nineteen nineties, pause, resume for two houses in 2002 and 2003, then produce single houses in 2018 and 2022, with two lots still vacant.

HOA & Fees

Something is missing from this plat that most others carry: not one common-area parcel appears under the name. All 26 rows are house lots. Whatever the owners hold together, a verge, an entry, drainage, the edge facing the neighboring water, shows up nowhere in the county's ownership record, so the only place to look is the restriction attached to each individual lot. Ask whether an association exists in a form that can levy and reserve at all, since a plat carrying no common ground sometimes runs on very light paper and sometimes on none. And with 26 owners rather than hundreds, one shared repair moves every share a long way, so ask what has actually been assessed across the last decade rather than what this year's budget shows.

Rental Policy

Start from an unusual gap. With no common parcel recorded under this plat, there may be no association instrument of the kind a buyer would normally read for the answer, and none could be obtained, so nothing here says short stays are allowed or barred. The governing paper is more likely a restriction running with the individual lot, which is why this has to be asked address by address instead of street wide. Two public obligations apply whatever that paper says. A detached house let to transient guests is a licensed class under Florida's lodging chapter, and the license precedes the first guest. And Destin runs a registration of its own, keyed to zoning district; the county's zoning layer carries only the marker that these parcels sit inside the city limits, so the district determination itself is a city record to go and get.

Building Answers

Kokomo Kove FAQ

How many lots does Kokomo Kove actually have?

Twenty-six on the county roll, 24 with a house and 2 recorded vacant, across about 4.1 mapped acres. Descriptions putting the count at roughly a dozen understate it by half, which matters when a buyer is judging how thin the sales history really is.

Does any lot at Kokomo Kove front the water?

No, by the county's mapping. A water body of about five and a half acres sits within 50 feet of the plat boundary, but tested one parcel at a time, none of the 26 touches, overlaps or contains it or any other mapped water. The relationship is adjacency, not frontage.

How does Kokomo Kove sit for flood and coastal permitting?

Favorably for ground this close to the beach. Every parcel falls in Zone X or the shaded 0.2 percent area, with no special flood hazard area under the plat and no published base flood elevation, and the state's coastal construction control line comes no closer than 200 feet without entering any lot, while the Gulf is within about 700 feet.
