Ariel Dunes Condos for Sale

About Ariel Dunes

Ariel Dunes is recorded as two condominiums rather than one. Walton County's roll carries 220 residential parcels at 112 Seascape Boulevard and 229 at 122 Seascape Boulevard, 449 in all, plus eight cabana parcels platted separately at the first address and one commercial unit in private hands. The roll returns 450 rows for those 449 residences because one parcel at 112 is drawn in two parts and comes back twice, which is worth knowing before treating any row count from this record as an inventory. Numbering tells the towers apart: designators at 122 begin on a first level while those at 112 begin on a second, and both stacks run to a twenty-fourth, with ten residences repeating on most levels and six on the top. Nothing about the address reaches the shore. Measured from the towers' own parcels straight down their own column, about 1,000 feet of other owners' ground lies between them and the seaward limit of platted land, and the last owner before that limit is Surfside Owners Association. Most of what stands in that stretch is other buildings and private homes rather than open association ground: restrict the roll to common area and institutional use codes and it returns fifteen parcels in the names of Seascape Homeowners Assoc Inc, Seascape Resorts Inc, Surfside Owners Association Inc, Sea Cabins Owners Association and Majestic Sun Owners Assoc Inc, but run the same box unrestricted and it returns hundreds, most of them other condominiums' residences and single-family parcels. Whether a purchase carries any use of the golf, courts or beachfront around the buildings is a question for the recorded documents and for the resort company; the parcel conveys none of it. Publicly owned beachfront is a measurable distance away: Walton County's Scenic Gulf Drive Regional Beach Access, the public parcel addressed 907 Scenic Gulf Drive, sits about 1,220 feet from the towers measured parcel outline to parcel outline, and it lies to the southeast rather than due south, about 830 feet east and 890 feet south. The county's own listing for that access publishes what is there: parking, restrooms, a water fountain, a beach conditions flag, seasonal lifeguards, and accessible parking, accessible restrooms and an accessible boardwalk, which is worth knowing before treating a walk of that length as the plan. Sampled across the towers' own parcel footprint, the federal flood map returns areas of minimal hazard only. A condominium building of three stories or more owes a milestone structural inspection by a licensed engineer or architect, on a clock that starts from the certificate of occupancy date, and that date is not on the parcel record.
