Situated just blocks from the city’s downtown and famed beaches, the Chelston model home blends West Indies and Old Florida-inspired architecture and design. Transom windows attract generous amounts of natural light to accompany the fully furnished Chelston’s island-inspired colors from the award-winning Romanza Interior Design. The three-bedroom, three-and-a-half bath home offers a study, formal dining room, and first-floor master suite with two walk-in closets and French doors that open to the linear pool’s raised spa. Trellises, a freestanding fountain and a secluded fire pit add to the outdoor living ambiance and complement the linear design of the custom pool, which is finished with mood-hued brick mosaic glass tile. The second floor offers the perfect retreat with a loft, wet bar and two guest suites. Image ©Advanced Photography Specialists

Having two young boys presents its own challenges, and when you have two of their best friends constantly visiting, you end up with four super active action heroes. This family wanted to dedicate a space for the boys to hangout. We took an ordinary basement and converted it into a playground heaven. A basketball hoop, climbing ropes, swinging chairs, rock climbing wall, and climbing bars, provide ample opportunity for the boys to let their energy out, and the built-in window seat is the perfect spot to catch a break. Tall built-in wardrobes and drawers beneath the window seat to provide plenty of storage for all the toys. You can guess where all the neighborhood kids come to hangout now ☺
