One of Panama City Beach's rarest lockout floor plans is now available. Offered by its original owners, who selected this residence at development for its privacy, flexibility and extraordinary Gulf views, Unit 601/603 has remained in the same hands ever since. With an established rental history and a coveted position at the furthermost western corner of the building, this is a location and floor plan that rarely reaches the market. Positioned away from the activity of the pool terrace, the residence feels remarkably private, yet the west-end elevator is just outside the door, providing easy access to covered parking and placing you only two floors above the Gulf-front amenity level. Its western position captures unobstructed views and some of the building's most spectacular sunsets. Here, the Gulf isn't limited to the balcony--every window has a Gulf view. From the kitchen and living room to the primary bedroom and adjoining studio, the water remains a constant backdrop. Designed as a true lockout, 601/603 offers exceptional flexibility. Enjoy the entire residence as a two-bedroom retreat, live in one side while renting the other, or rent each side independently to maximize rental potential. The studio features a king bed, with a dining area, a kitchenette with a sink,microwave, and a mini fridge! There's also a full bath and a stunning Gulf view! The adjoining one-bedroom offers a full kitchen, spacious living area, king bedroom with Gulf views, an oversized full bath and additional storage. The residence retains its West Indies-inspired character with solid wood furnishings and cabinetry, mahogany doors and travertine accents. Professionally installed wood-look luxury vinyl plank flooring runs contiguously throughout, creating a cohesive foundation with the hard work already done. A simple paint refresh and décor change could transform the interiors and allow the next owner to make it entirely their own. The gated building offers three levels of covered parking and interior-access corridors rarely found along the Panhandle. Recently renovated common areas feature bright coastal finishes and a redesigned modern lobby. Owners also have the opportunity for private storage cages for bikes, beach equipment and personal belongings. The fourth-floor grand pool terrace features a heated zero-edge infinity pool overlooking the Gulf, hot tub, comfortable lounging areas and Gulf-view fitness center. Picnic areas and barbecue grills flank both ends of the building, while east and west 15th-floor observation decks offer panoramic views. Additional amenities include the 25-person Bamboo Theater Room, game room, convenience shopping, coffee, refreshments and beach supplies. Just five minutes west of Pier Park and within walking distance of dining, entertainment and conveniences, 601/603 delivers the best of both worlds: a private western-end location with unobstructed Gulf views and the amenities of a full-service beachfront resort. Use it as a personal retreat, live in one side and rent the other, or take advantage of the lockout configuration and established rental history--an exceptionally versatile opportunity on Panama City Beach.
