This is one of my favorite houses down by the beach. It has
incredible designer details and mixes antiques with seashells and beachy
accents.
Great
curb appeal is achieved here with a clean palette of
white
and traditional brick and is finished off with a long
wrap-around
porch and citrus trees in pots.

custom made seashell address
medallion
hangs on the porch.

The
living room is a perfect mix of antiques
in
an ocean and sand color palette.
A
natural fiber rug and
window
shades pull it all together.
My favorite part of this family room is the seashell encrusted
fireplace surround. It has all the amenities a family could want, including
easy access to the backyard swimming pool.
The white kitchen gets a bit of color from the turquoise tile
backsplash, and a breathtaking mermaid mosaic highlights the kitchen and sets
the tone for this seaside theme. Majolica plates in greens adorn the window on
the right side. The rich wood floor gives the whole space warmth.
The dining room greets visitors at the front of the house and is
just off the kitchen. It's walls are a vibrant turquoise venetian plaster
and the dining chairs are a sandy colored linen, finished off with playful
striped seats. French doors open up to the front porch.
Perfect
balance and symmetry makes this room simple,
and
the colors make it so fun!
The master bedroom is a quiet
sanctuary
with its own private outdoor retreat.
The
soothing colors continue on through the master bath.
I love the mix of bohemian chic antiques
with the colors of the sea.
A
nice little quiet spot in the hallway.
A
fun,beachy spin in one of the bedrooms.
Here the
decor has turned sweet and feminine.
A
useful study nook at the top of the stairs.
Custom
pierced cabinets define the laundry room area.
A beautiful pool, a fire pit with
comfortable seating
and a barbecue station enhance this
backyard.
Notice the second mermaid mosaic.
This one is the focal point of the
outdoor space.
A
third story deck is blissfully enjoyed,
especially
when gorgeous Pacific sunsets
can
be easily spied from a comfy spot
on
the outdoor sofas.
