Property Description
Laketown Wharf Unit 501 | Panama City Beach, FL - Three-bedroom plus bunk room, end unit with a rare position within the building.
Located on the fifth floor, this unit represents the first level in Laketown Wharf where Gulf views begin while still maintaining a lower-floor elevation. Positioned on the southeast end of the building, with convenient access to the elevators and owners parking garage, but away from the heavy foot traffic areas.
The wraparound balcony overlooks the elevated ''kiddie pool'' deck on top of the south parking garage, featuring water features, lounge seating, and an active amenity area.
The balcony offers multiple access points, including the living area, primary suite, and a rare full door from one of the guest bedrooms--an uncommon feature within Laketown Wharf, primarily found in the first stack of the building. One section of the balcony remains shaded during ALL portions of the day and benefits from consistent airflow, creating a comfortable outdoor space for those who prefer to stay out of direct sun exposure.
The kitchen features updated recessed lighting, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Coastal furnishings complement the interior, with tile and LVP flooring throughout for durability and ease of maintenance, along with a stackable washer and dryer.
Laketown Wharf is known for its unmatched amenities. Residents and guests enjoy five pools, including one heated year-round, two hot tubs, a fitness center overlooking the Gulf, a playground, pickleball courts, and mini golf. The 52,000 square-foot boardwalk circles the lake with a nightly fountain and light show. Direct, gated beach access sits next door to Pineapple Willy's. On the ground level, you'll find a lineup of restaurants, shops, and entertainment: Juan Taco, Wharf Seafood Buffet, The Candymaker Ice Cream Shop, PCB Pizza, In Cahoots for breakfast and brunch, The Press coffee shop, The Bun Lab, and more. The property also offers 810 Billiards & Bowling, a salon and nail bar, barbecue and pet areas, a poolside Splash Bar & Grill, two parking garages, and beach chair rentals. HOA dues are $3,527.73/quarter and include water, sewer, trash, cable/TV, pest control, WiFi, and full use of amenities. Nearby recently opened attractions include Dolly Parton's Pirates Voyage Dinner & Show, Topgolf, and McGuire's Irish Pub, with Tootsie's Orchid Lounge scheduled to open in 2026, reinforcing the area's continued growth. All information is deemed reliable but should be verified by the buyer if important.
