Welcome to Up on the Roof in Seaside, Florida

Perfectly positioned directly across from Seaside’s West End Pool, Up on the Roof offers a relaxed coastal retreat with multiple outdoor living spaces and thoughtful interiors designed for memorable family vacations. From its prime West End location to its rooftop views, this home blends comfort, convenience, and classic Seaside charm.

Spacious Outdoor Living on Every Level

Up on the Roof welcomes guests with two expansive open-air porches on the first and second levels, ideal for soaking up the Florida sunshine. The first-floor porch features outdoor dining with a picnic table and adjacent Adirondack seating for four, creating a perfect setting for casual meals or morning coffee. A furnished rear porch just off the kitchen adds even more outdoor space to relax and unwind.

Open-Concept Living, Dining & Kitchen

Step inside to an open floor plan designed for gathering and connection. The inviting living room offers comfortable seating and a large flat-screen TV, making it perfect for movie nights or game-day viewing. Just beyond, the dining area comfortably seats eight guests, with additional breakfast bar seating for three. The recently updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, new countertops, and everything needed to prepare meals with ease.

First-Floor Bedroom & Full Bath

A queen bedroom is conveniently located just off the living area and includes a mounted flat-screen TV. A spacious full bathroom is located directly across the hall, serving both the bedroom and main living spaces on the first floor.

Second-Floor Bedrooms & Front Porch Retreat

The second floor hosts three additional queen bedrooms and opens to a large, furnished front porch overlooking a peaceful wooded park area. The primary queen bedroom offers ample storage, private en suite bathroom, and direct access to the porch. The recently renovated primary bath features marble countertops and a marble rain shower.
An adjacent queen bedroom also opens to the front porch, while the fourth queen bedroom is tucked away at the rear of the home. These bedrooms share a renovated full hall bath with a tub/shower combination.

Iconic Seaside Porch Living

Stretching the length of the home, the second-floor open-air porch is a true highlight. Enjoy lazy afternoons on the custom-built queen hanging bed or relax in the rocking chairs while taking in the tranquil views—an ideal space for unwinding after a day at the beach.

Third-Floor Loft & Rooftop Deck Views

At the top of the home, a third-floor loft offers a built-in workspace with two desks, perfect for remote work or planning the day’s adventures. From here, step onto the open-air rooftop deck, furnished with seating for four and showcasing sweeping Seaside rooftop views with a glimpse of the Gulf. This elevated escape is the perfect spot for sunset cocktails or a peaceful nightcap under the stars.
