クリスマス今週オープン！ 加熱プールをプライベート！ 広い海の眺め！

Sandy was inspired by my husband's family beach house designed by an architect from Mobile in the 1950s. My husband took design elements from this family beach house as a model for our house. Sandy's modern architecture combines concrete, stainless steel, cedar, pine, and Ipe (a Brazilian hardwood about as hard as concrete) to make a beautiful, masculine, powerful statement. Exposed construction materials emphasize both its strength and beauty.

First came the lot. We found the lot that had everything we were looking for. See Unique Benefits below for an explanation.

Storm surge is a reality here, so building back from the beach a little onto some of the highest elevation on the peninsula protects us and positions us to having a really great view of the beach and our lovely adjoining neighborhood. Sandy sits at the dead end of a little road on a water access point--so the beach is JUST RIGHT THERE. We have the best of both worlds here at Sandy: a house that sits on the edge of pristine beach wilderness and a location near the town center. We never have to drive our car when we are here; we either walk or ride bikes wherever we desire to go. We live in harmony with some very special wildlife, including the sea turtle and beach mouse, yet we walk a short beach trail to a well-stocked marketplace that provides us with all that we need. If we do choose to drive somewhere, we are an easy, 15-minute drive to all the chain places (Rouses, Publix, Target, Wal-Mart, Walgreens, etc). And though we are also this short drive to some famous festivals-- including Shrimp Fest and the Hangout Festival--we find ourselves being totally grounded by our therapeutic paradise here at Sandy.
