Gulfside Cottages Homes for Sale

Living in Gulfside Cottages

Gulfside Cottages is one recorded plat of 30 lots on about 4.1 acres, Plat Book 11, Pages 24 and 24-A, filed in March 1995 under a December 1994 dedication by the developer, Santa Rosa Beach Properties Inc. Walton County numbers it 33-2S-21-42530 and traces it to a parent parcel on the 1995 roll. The county's subdivision header misspells the name as Gulfside Cottates, a slip to watch for when searching the county's records; the lot legal descriptions spell it correctly.

Note 5 on sheet 24-A reads that all streets shown are private and not dedicated to the public, and the dedication adds that no street, alley, easement or public area passes to the public. Building lines sit 20 feet back from the front and the street right-of-way, 10 feet at the rear and 5 feet at the sides, and note 1 warns that further restrictions may be recorded elsewhere. None of the 32 outlines meets a feature in the county's planning-overlay layer, which carries neighborhood plans, planned developments and community development districts, so no such overlay is mapped over the plat.

Under the plat's 33-2S-21-42530 series sit 30 lot parcels and a single parcel for the shared ground, whose county legal text is the streets, common areas and limited common areas as shown on the plat. The county draws that shared parcel as two shapes, a large one of 0.86 acre and a 0.01 acre fragment, so its file carries 32 rows for 31 parcels. Gulfside Cottages Homeowners Association Inc is the owner of record of the shared parcel and of lot 7, which the county classes as a site improvement and the state roll codes vacant, with no living area and 8,577 square feet of land. Lots 1 through 6 and 8 through 30 are single family in the county's classes. State records show Gulfside Cottages Homeowner's Association, Inc. incorporated in December 2001, amended in January 2003 and still active. Nothing in the plat, the roll or the registry spells out what it collects or allows.

The 2026 state roll dates all 29 houses to 2001 or 2002, six to 2001 and 23 to 2002, with living areas from 1,280 to 2,453 square feet on lots of 3,741 to 5,721 square feet. Every address is on Gulfside Way, Miramar Beach 32550.

Intersecting the 32 outlines with FEMA's national map and with the county's flood layer gives the same answer on each: Zone X throughout, with no Zone AE or VE ground on any parcel. Eleven parcels carry some shaded Zone X, the 0.2 percent annual-chance band, from about 3 percent of one lot to about 94 percent of another, and four of the eleven are 40 percent or more. These labels classify ground on a map and say nothing about a particular house's floor height.

Gulfside Cottages' only market datapoint is a Miramar Beach name search from August 20, 2026: no active dwellings, 21 sold. Twenty-one sales against 29 houses describes one past moment, not what is listed today.

Past sales along Gulfside Way, private streets and all, are tracked on the Gulfside Cottages market data page. For houses outside this 30-lot plat from 1995, see Miramar Beach real estate or every Miramar Beach neighborhood we cover.
