This new home breaks the mold of typical beach dwellings by engaging a new modern look. Organized to capture the prevailing breeze and view, the home orients its spaces in a unique way to minimize the typical footprint needs for a 4-bedroom home. The modern look and feel are completely driven by the interior program, with big open spaces to socialize or comfortable nooks for relaxing.
The entry doubles as a shaded dining porch with operable wood screens capable of protecting during the hurricane months; the porch opens on both ends to engage the master patio with its swimming area. A steel stairway leads upstairs to three additional bedrooms and another patio to engage the gulf views and stargazing.
