About Gulf Place Residences

Gulf Place Residences is one recorded condominium, not a shorthand for everything at Gulf Place. The county roll lists 42 units at 1740 South County Highway 393: 40 residences numbered through a third level, plus two commercial units addressed C1 and C2 inside the same declaration, which makes this a genuinely mixed building rather than a residential one that happens to stand near shops. Title to the common area runs to Gulf Place Residences Owners Association, which is also the body the two commercial units answer to, since they sit inside this declaration rather than beside it. The community around it is layered, and understanding that layering comes before comparing two listings that both say Gulf Place. Gulf Place Community Owners Association is titled to eleven parcels of community property, and a second community-level body, Gulf Place at Santa Rosa Beach Homeowners Association, holds common area on the platted single-family side. Beneath them sit separately named neighborhood regimes for the Town Center, the Cabanas, the Caribbean and this building. Two homes a hundred feet apart can therefore answer to different documents and different budgets. Position matters as well: this building stands at the northern, inland end of the community, with the town center buildings and then the Six Palms and Costa Blanca condominiums standing between it and the nearest county-owned parcel that reaches the shoreline, which lies to the southeast rather than straight down.

HOA & Fees

Reading the right documents is the whole job here, because the wrong ones are the easiest to reach. This building's declaration is its own, and the body holding its common area is Gulf Place Residences Owners Association; the community-level associations and the neighboring regimes publish separate budgets that do not govern it. A mixed condominium adds a second question, since two of the units in this declaration are commercial and the declaration therefore has to allocate shared costs between commercial and residential use. That allocation belongs in diligence rather than in an assumption. Florida requires a condominium association to keep official records that include its most recent structural integrity reserve study, where one applies, and copies of all building permits issued for ongoing or planned construction. Those two items tell a buyer more about the next few years of assessments than a current balance does, and a purchase contract is the practical lever for obtaining them before closing.

Rental Policy

Rental terms here come from this condominium's own declaration, which is worth stressing at this address because the Gulf Place name covers several regimes whose documents differ. A rule published by a neighboring building says nothing about 1740 South County Highway 393. Walton County separately registers short-term vacation rentals at unincorporated addresses, which this one is, but county registration answers a county question and leaves the association's question open. That two of this building's units are commercial is one more reason to read the declaration rather than infer terms from what the ground floor looks like.

  • Forty residences numbered across three levels
  • Two commercial units inside the same declaration
  • Its own owners association and common-area parcel
  • Community-level association property on three sides
  • Two other condominiums between it and the nearest county coastal parcel

Building Answers

Gulf Place Residences FAQ

Is there one association covering all of Gulf Place?

The county roll shows a layered structure rather than a single body or none at all. Gulf Place Community Owners Association holds eleven parcels of community property, and a second community-level body, Gulf Place at Santa Rosa Beach Homeowners Association, holds common area on the platted single-family side. Under them sit separately named neighborhood associations, including the one that holds this building's common area.

Does this condominium include commercial space?

Yes. Two of the 42 units recorded at 1740 South County Highway 393 are commercial units, addressed C1 and C2, and they sit inside the same declaration as the 40 residences. That is a meaningful difference from a residential building that merely stands near retail, because the declaration has to divide shared expenses between the two uses.

Which documents actually govern a listing at 1740 South County Highway 393?

This building's own declaration, rules and budget, together with whatever obligations the community-level association imposes on the parcels around it. A budget or rule sheet from the Town Center, the Cabanas or the Caribbean regimes is a different document set. Confirming which regime a listing belongs to is the first step in diligence here, not the last.
