Facing the Atlantic with stunning views out to sea, this newly renovated house strikes all the right chords of style, sophistication and relaxing escape. Located directly on the oceanfront along some of the most pristine white sand beaches of the central east coast of Florida, the area is an outdoorsy tropical paradise.
Embracing the breezy beach vibe, the house is cool and serene with white on white interiors punctuated by a sleek and chic selection of designer European furnishings and custom detail. Professionally decorated by a Miami design firm, there are furnishings from Poliform along with a few antiques and a pair of classic, vintage swan chairs designed by Arne Jacobsen for Fritz Hansen. A collection of original 'horizon' monotypes completed by the artist over several years between the late 1970's and early 1980's are also featured throughout the house.
Designed and built for beach fun and relaxation, this beach house in Florida also a stylish state of the art residence that takes design and function seriously. We love the luxurious custom finishes, striking designer furnishings and art collection and the perfect deck lounge right on the sand.
The upper floor is illuminated by east facing windows and doors that lead out to the deck lounge and includes the sitting room and an open plan state of the art chefs kitchen and dining area. An origami-inspired staircase custom designed by Process Architecture leads to the three bedrooms below, one of which was designed especially for kids. Stylish, and family friendly, this is an ideal oceanfront vacation destination.
