a sophisticated beach house

This home is relaxed and elegant all at the same time.

The style is an eclectic mix of

casual, coastal and vintage.  

As one of the six homes featured on this year's 

Newport Harbor Home and Garden Tour,

its soft color palette

and intimate decor really drew visitors in.

Among the most talked-about features of this house were

the disappearing doors that lead out to the backyard.

Opening these doors creates 
a huge indoor/outdoor space. 

The gorgeous laundry & gift wrapping room 
was really popular with home tour visitors too.

The family room has a wet bar and 

wine room hidden in the corner.

I love the creative use of the stairway walls.

Here are the dining and living rooms

at the front of the house.

A lovely vignette in the dining room.

The turquoise accents in the living room are perfect!

Cozy!

Vintage accents are scattered throughout the home.

Pretty pastel flowers adorned the dining room table.

Home tour guests have lots of questions 

for interior designer Stacia Dunnam,

seen in the white top.

A pretty mercury glass vignette

in the dining room.

The most gorgeous

sand and seashell cake

sat on 

the expansive white marble island.

Stay tuned for more details of this kitchen

in a future post.

The indoor and outdoor spaces become one.

The home office is neutral and calm.

Fun bedrooms.

Souvenirs and sea treasures 
work perfectly
 together in this weathered cabinet.

The master bathroom has a circular motif.

Pretty fabrics brighten up the master bedroom.

The master closet was drool-worthy!

Here’s the large wrapping/laundry room.
What a treat to have this in your home, Heidi!

An outdoor table is perfectly in-tune 

with the indoor decor.
