NatureWalk at Seagrove is a 155-acre community located in Seagrove Beach, Florida, developed by Kolter Homes that opened in 2012.[1] Seagrove is located on the Florida Panhandle along the Emerald Coast about forty minutes east of Destin, Florida and two hours west of Tallahassee, Florida. The community is on County Road 395, close to Seaside and Watercolor.
NatureWalk is surrounded by the Point Washington State Forest, a 15,000 acre wildlife preserve[2] At the community entrance is an 800-foot bridge, which is the largest vehicular timber bridge in the United States.[citation needed] This type of bridge does not require wetlands to be filled and preserves the surrounding ecosystem better than alternative bridge options while still being able maintain the weight of highway traffic.[3]
History[edit]
NatureWalk at Seagrove was previously owned by The St. Joe Company, which is the largest private landowner in Florida, holding 577,000 acres in Northwest Florida previously owned NatureWalk. When the real estate market began to contract in 2006, The St. Joe Company decided to quit its current real estate endeavors in Florida, one of which was NatureWalk. Following the St. Joe Company loss, Kolter, a private investment agency based in Palm Beach County, Florida,[4] bought the land, and developed NatureWalk.
