Every aspect of this home, created by Geoff Chick, strikes notes that reflect its picturesque surroundings -- from its sturdy all-concrete construction to cedar shake siding that dovetails with nature. Beyond the gate, the well-trained eye will notice the decommissioned brick paver drive imported from the streets of Charleston, S.C., leading to a two-car garage and a commanding second-floor entryway.

Ensuite baths offer custom, paneled linen closets, handpainted Mackenzie-Childs accents and matte quartzite countertops.
Throughout the home, you'll find writing desks and computer nooks that offer serene hideaways for productivity. Multiple areas of the home were fitted for a family's furry companions, from the dedicated dog room with Dutch door to the hidden dog gate in the stair post to a dog-washing station complete with a quartz sink. Even the gulf-front pool was created with pup-friendly features in mind, such as a shallow shelf for relaxing in the sun. A spa with waterfall feature gives the entire family a place to unwind, near a screened porch with outdoor kitchen.
The second floor is home to a standalone suite over the garage, reminiscent of a charming carriage house, with a full ensuite bath, storage/sitting area, and bunk beds, offering a private retreat for guests.
