Southern Belle Antiques
About
Southern Belle Antiques shares the same short stretch of Perry Avenue Southeast as several other small Fort Walton Beach retailers, sitting near the Uptown Station area just off Eglin Parkway close to downtown. According to its Yellow Pages business listing, the shop keeps notably long hours for an antiques store, open Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., meaning it is accessible to browsers essentially every day of the week rather than limiting itself to a handful of weekday hours the way many small antique dealers do.
As with most independent antiques shops, inventory at a store like this typically turns over based on estate purchases, consignments, and individual finds, so a specific list of what is currently on the floor cannot be confirmed without an in-person visit or a call ahead. The shop’s name, Southern Belle, fits a familiar naming convention among antique and vintage dealers across the South, though the specific character of its inventory, whether it leans toward furniture, glassware, jewelry, linens, or a broader general mix, was not independently verifiable through a working business website or social media presence at the time of this research.
Perry Avenue itself sits in a small commercial pocket near downtown Fort Walton Beach, within walking distance of the Uptown Station development and a short drive from the harbor along Miracle Strip Parkway. That location places Southern Belle Antiques among a handful of other antique and specialty shops in the same few blocks, giving browsers the option to visit multiple stores in one trip rather than driving across town. Antique shopping in this part of Okaloosa County tends to draw both local residents furnishing homes on a budget and visitors looking for one of a kind pieces they cannot find in a big box furniture store.
The business’s exact founding date, current ownership, price range, and any social media presence could not be independently confirmed beyond its basic directory listing, so this entry should be treated as a starting point rather than a complete picture of the shop. Its address at 119 Perry Avenue Southeast does fall within Fort Walton Beach’s incorporated city limits according to U.S. Census Bureau records, unlike some addresses just a few blocks north along Eglin Parkway that actually sit across the boundary in Cinco Bayou. Anyone planning a special trip to Southern Belle Antiques, especially outside of its listed hours, should call ahead first to confirm the shop is still operating at this location and that those hours remain current.
