Beach House

Located in a charming community situated between Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach. The design-build team of Benecki Homes, Melanie Turner Interiors, Source, Lew Oliver, Inc. and Chase Green Built combined their talents for the amenity-filled, high-style showhome. The new seaside sanctuary is in the Santimo development on Elysee Court, a 20-lot neighborhood nestled between the luxury communities of Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach on scenic 30A. The architecture is a fusion of classicism and modern influenced by Deco and Aegean styles. A clean, restrained aesthetic speaks to the simplicity of today's beach living.The exterior elevates proportion and scale, evident in the windows, iron balconies and white stucco facade. A lookout tower serves as the exclamation point. An elevated pool on the second floor offers tranquil views of the sky and palms. Large sliding doors in the living room and kitchen reveal the pool terrace while glass windows in a dining area open to a poolside serving bar. A happy palette of blues and yellows evokes the joy of coastal living. Finishes such as Venetian plaster accentuate the curves of key elements, such as the sexy spiral staircase. Wallpaper or an unexpected painted color are also savvy solutions. Salvaged barn beams in the living room, stained oak wood floors and brass fixtures add warmth. Bespoke tile and hardware display an exquisite level of detail.The five bedrooms and bunk room, with ample closets, carve out spaces for families and friends to enjoy beach time. A TV lounge on the second floor, along with the third floor's great room and a primary suite with a sitting room provide additional areas for socializing and serenity. The "nest," a fourth-floor hangout with a bar, space for games, TV watching, and playing putt putt is surrounded by the terrace in the fashion of a rooftop conservatory. From the terrace or the tower on the upper level, homeowners and guests can soak up the sun and watch the stars.A four-car garage with space for recreational gear, ample closets and pantries, and an elevator accommodate homeowner's needs for storage and accessibility in beach homes.The decor exudes understated glamour with furnishings from Verellen, Bernhardt, Bradley and Douglass Workroom, lighting from Visual Comfort, custom rugs from Miami Circle Floor Coverings and curated photography from Jackson Fine Art and abstract art by George Williams. Neutral and graphic wallcoverings and fabrics from Pierre Frey, Schumacher, Kravet, Romo, Jerry Pair, Peacock Alley, Jab at Travis & Co., Avant Garde, Dogwood Fabrics and Masco drive the fresh interiors.
