I just HAD to share these pictures before I signed off for the weekend (and nurse myself back to health). This is a beach house renovation that my Dad just finished- all I can say is A-MA-ZING. I can’t wait to see more of this house.
Here it is BEFORE:
They actually used the frame of the old house!
And here it is AFTER:
Street side (notice the lighthouse like detail on the roof?)
Harbor side- porches galore!
The kitchen- notice all the beadboard detail and the sailboats carved in the molding!
A delicious Perrin & Rowe bridge faucet on honed absolute black granite counter tops with a farmers sink made of the same.
Glass subway tile back-splash with special lighting to reduce the glare on the glass. I love the way this mimics sea glass!
Beachy, lovely bathrooms
The little details I obsess about: a Carrera slab seat in the shower. A perfect laundry room.
Beautiful stairs and entry tile work- also love the style of the door!
Great way to hide a TV above a fireplace…
What crappy views, right? :)
Things omitted from the pics- the putting green and shuffleboard court under the deck behind the house, the fact that the screened in porch shown above has big doors that open it right up to the dining area to allow up to 16 people to dine!
I hope I inherited an ounce of Dad’s skills!
Totally amazing. When can I move in?
p.s. the apple did not fall far from the tree!
Happened upon your blog and the house is amazing! It’s beautiful and the details~wow!
I’m enjoying your blog, hope you don’t mind if I drop by occasionally.
WOW, that is a beautiful house!
What an amazing transformation! I am SURE you were blessed with some of your Dad’s great talent! WOW! I didn’t think the “before” pic was so bad, until i saw all the “afters”!!!
Also, love your charity event outfit from Fashion Friday! :)
Absolutely gorgeous! Love the harbor side!
Wow! What a talented dad you have! Now I know where your amazing talents came from. =)
Wow! I am sooo jealous! What a lovely, serene house. It has a real beachy feel to it without being too vacation-like.
One look at the neighborhood and the lagoon and I knew where this house was. Your post reminded me that I need to get back there. I spent thirty summers there and my uncle’s house was just across the lagoon. YEA GLP. Great looking house.
It is really beautiful. What a lucky homeowner!
Thank you for posting these photos. They are amazing and give great inspiration. Your dad is very talented!
Holy cow! AH-MAZING!
Wow, your dad is a talented guy, must run in the family.
That is simply spectacular – kudos to your dad! His attention to detail and the quality of his work really shines through.
i am drooling;)
Oh, DROOL! What a fantastic house! I will have to add the pics to my Dream Home folder. :)
Wonderful details.
Gorgeous! What town?
AMAZING! WOW!
drop dead, smack me in the ass, gorgeous!!!
