Every item.

Ready now, no deferred maintenance to inherit.Skylights, gas fireplace, fenced backyard, attached garage, quiet cul-de-sac lot. VA, FHA, and Conventional financing accepted -- now offered at $390,000, the most competitive price per square foot for a detached home in this neighborhood in the past year.Location, condition, and price all line up here. Come see it before someone else does. The Full Story on 1405 Ariel LaneSome homes sit on the market because they're overpriced. Some because they need work. This one sat because a buyer got cold feet after an inspection report -- and the sellers made a decision most sellers don't make. Instead of negotiating a credit and hoping the next buyer wouldn't ask the same questions, they fixed every single item on that report. Then they kept going. What you're looking at today is a home that has been more thoroughly prepared for its next owner than most new listings ever are.Start with the location, because for a lot of buyers looking in this corridor, location is the whole decision. 1405 Ariel Lane sits inside Crosswinds Landing, a quiet, established neighborhood in North Fort Walton Beach -- a straight ten-minute drive to Eglin Air Force Base's main gate, about eighteen minutes to Hurlburt Field.

For anyone PCSing into the area on a timeline, or anyone who just wants to stop losing an hour a day to a commute, this address does a lot of the work for you.The house itself is 2,130 square feet -- the largest move-in-ready detached home currently available in Crosswinds Landing. Three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a master suite on the first floor, which matters more than people expect once they're actually living with stairs every day. Cathedral and vaulted ceilings run through the main living space, with skylights that bring in far more natural light than the square footage alone would suggest. A gas fireplace anchors the living room for the handful of genuinely cold nights this part of Florida gets. Out back, a fenced yard on a quiet cul-de-sac lot gives you privacy without the maintenance of a big lot -- and a recent tree removal opened up both the yard and the kitchen, which now gets natural light it simply didn't have before.Here is what's been done, plainly, so there are
