Seagrove Villas coming down in 2007
As developers of Nature-Walk at Seagrove searched for beach access for the community now under construction on County Road 395, Seagrove Villas was offered for sale.
Rick Olson, of Olson and Associates of NW Florida and NatureWalk developer, had previously described the purchase of two homes on the beach near the intersection of County Roads 30A and 395 as the possible location of beach access for the new community.
With the purchase of the Seagrove Villas property, a mile and a half from NatureWalk, Olson?s company initiated neighborhood outreach meetings with local property owners to discuss ideas, questions and concerns about the project.
The proposed project includes a beach club with two swimming pools, spas and 300 feet of beach frontage. Also planned is a 2,400-square-foot retail shop, a gulf-front restaurant, underground parking and shuttle service between the beach club site and NatureWalk. Twentyone beachfront condos are part of the project.
Following the neighborhood meetings, project plans have been modifi ed to address community needs and have been resubmitted to the county staff for review.
There will be a public hearing before the Walton County Planning Commission in January. If the project receives approval from Planning, it will be reviewed by the Board of County Commissioners in a second public hearing in February.
If the project is approved, Seagrove Villas will be demolished after
Labor Day, 2007. Developers anticipate the new beach club project will be
completed in 2009.
