Built in 1998, the 2,800 sq ft house was lacking the charm and amenities that the location justified. The idea was to give it a "Hawaiiana" plantation feel. Exterior renovations include staining the tile roof and exposing the rafters by removing the stucco soffits and adding brackets. Smooth stucco combined with wood siding, expanded rear Lanais, a sweeping spiral staircase, detailed columns, balustrade, all new doors, windows and shutters help achieve the desired effect. On the pool level, reclaiming crawl space added 317 sq ft. for an additional bedroom suite, and a new pool bathroom was added. On the main level vaulted ceilings opened up the great room, kitchen, and master suite. Two small bedrooms were combined into a fourth suite and an office was added. Traditional built-in cabinetry and moldings complete the look.

The traditional floor plan is made contemporary by sleek, streamlined finishes and modern touches such as recessed LED lighting, beautiful trimwork and a gray/white color scheme. A dramatic two-story foyer with wrap-around balcony leads into the open-concept great room and kitchen area, complete with wet bar, butler's pantry and commercial-grade Thermador appliances.
