Lot 5, WaterSound Beach Phase 1, (Dune Ridge) Walton County, Florida
This Gulf-front home in WaterSound Beach, recently featured in Decor magazine and also featured in the NY magazine The Week, is the 4 year-long collaborative work of
Atlanta Architect Kenneth Lynch, local Interior Designer Georgia Carlee & local Builder Mark Breaux. The original owners envisioned a legacy home to be passed down
through the generations. Improving upon what was already one of the most magnificent homes in NW Florida, the current owners made considerable investments that
include the installation of exterior gas lanterns & a Control 4 smart home system. They also enlisted local Interior Designer Paige Schnell to fully furnish all 7,228 square
feet with custom pieces which the current owners will consider selling. The only community along 30A to significantly retain the dunes once found along its entire length,
WaterSound Beach offers only 13 Gulf-front lots, this home site special for its 150-foot depth bordered to the west by a boardwalk that leads to the beach & 44-foot width
facing the expanse of cascading dunes fronting the Gulf. Approaching from the driveway on the east side or from the boardwalk on the west side, it is easy to imagine a
ship moored along the dunes, ready to depart on a fantastic voyage. A screened breezeway which joins the second levels of the main & guest houses creates an entry
portico. One step inside the front door of the main house reveals a grand staircase. Its curved walnut treads puddle onto the Peacock Paver ground-level floor & gently
swept banisters open to embrace guests as the staircase descends from the second level. On the opposite side of the stairs is a powder room and den with access to a
screened porch. The den features a wet bar, a casual dining bar as well as space for a game table. Beyond the den is a guest suite with private bath & screened porch with
access to the boardwalk. The elevator provides convenient access between levels, but casually climbing the staircase from the first level to the second reveals an elaborate
Sinker cypress basket weave ceiling with walnut cross beams & dramatic cove lighting that draws the eye to a picture window framing views of the Gulf beyond a covered
porch. Gulf-side of the staircase is the dining room & the living room with gas tabby stone fireplace & built-in media cabinetry, opposite which is a cozy sitting area. The
kitchen is well-appointed & conceals most of its storage & appliances with wood panels custom-designed to discretely blend with the surrounding horizontal wood panel
wall surface. There is, in fact, very nearly no dry wall used throughout. The north side of the third level features an office & bunk room with whimsical cedar shingle walls &
sliding barn doors
