Washed with warm breezes and soft colors, this beautiful home offers the sense of relaxation that has made Florida famous. The island setting and lush vegetation gives this home a flavor of the tropics. The soft-yellow exterior highlighted in white is a distinct contrast beneath the mottled gray-green tile roof. The spacious, three-car garage is a well integrated part of the two-story home. The causual, tropical tone continues at the rear of the house where a deep, covered entertaining area meets the pool. Tile roofing lends durability and a sharp look to this Florida home. Although roomy on its own, the living room appears even more spacious because of the bank of windows that opens onto the rear garden. Just inside the front door, the dining room combines with the foyer and living room to create an open area perfect for casual living and entertaining. The master retreat begs for furniture with bold proportions and rich fabrics. An open corner is devoted to a sitting area. The master bath sparkles with a mirrored wall and beautiful cabinets. A substantial portion of the main level is devoted to the family room/breakfast room/kitchen area. In the family room, a wall of built in shelves flanks the fireplace. Set away from the daily living spaces, the study offers retreat and comfort. The secondary bedrooms are ideal for children or teenagers. Just down the hall from the upstairs bedroom, a study loft inludes plenty of counterspace to accomodate the computers in the family. It's a wonderful plan. The rooms flow and all seem to connect to the outdoors.
