5935 Gulf Dr, Panama City Beach, FL 32408

Set directly along the sugar-white shoreline of Panama City Beach, The Headliner at Hadley's Beach is a newly constructed Gulf-front residence combining architectural scale, elevated interiors, private beach access, and short-term rental flexibility within one of the area's most intimate coastal enclaves. Hadley's Beach includes just 26 homes, with only 16 true Gulf-front residences, making this an increasingly limited opportunity for direct waterfront ownership in Panama City Beach. Across approximately 5,700 square feet and three levels, sweeping Gulf views, five panoramic door systems, a heated private pool, and more than 1,300 square feet of outdoor living create a home designed around the water from nearly every vantage point. Built by Thor Construction & Design, the residence pairs refined coastal architecture with a material palette that feels substantial, current, and quietly sophisticated. Venetian plaster, custom cabinetry, oak beams, Visual Comfort lighting, and expansive walls of glass bring texture and warmth to the interiors while allowing the Gulf to remain the defining visual element. Five panoramic door systems positioned across all three levels open the home toward the shoreline, creating a fluid connection between interior gathering spaces, covered porches, and the beach beyond. The second level serves as the natural heart of the home, where generous living and dining spaces unfold around a chef's kitchen designed for both everyday life and large-scale entertaining. Custom cabinetry is complemented by Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, while the open layout preserves long sightlines to the Gulf. Floor-to-ceiling windows and broad openings fill the space with natural light and create an effortless progression from the kitchen and living areas to expansive outdoor terraces overlooking the water. Eight spacious bedrooms and eight bathrooms are thoughtfully arranged across the residence to accommodate family, guests, and multigenerational gatherings while maintaining privacy throughout. The upper-level primary suite is positioned as a private Gulf-front retreat, complete with its own lounge and panoramic water views, creating a quieter sanctuary removed from the home's central gathering spaces. Outdoor living is integral to the experience of The Headliner. More than 1,300 square feet of porch space spans the residence, offering multiple settings for open-air dining, morning coffee, relaxed conversation, and sunset views. The heated private pool extends the home's resort-style atmosphere, while direct private access leads from the residence to the white sand and turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico. An elevator and garage add convenience across all three levels. Hadley's Beach offers a distinctive position within Panama City Beach, pairing the privacy of a limited residential enclave with convenient access to the area's dining, entertainment, live music, and coastal recreation. Days can begin on the Gulf, move easily into the energy of Panama City Beach, and end back at the residence with sunset views from the porch or evenings beside the pool. Offered fully furnished and with short-term rentals permitted, The Headliner offers flexibility as a primary residence, second home, vacation property, or Gulf-front investment opportunity. For buyers searching for a luxury Gulf-front home in Panama City Beach, a newer construction beachfront residence with a private heated pool, or a short-term rental property directly on the Gulf of Mexico, 5935 Gulf Drive brings together architecture, scale, location, and direct waterfront access in a setting designed to be experienced from sunrise through sunset.
