2009 Tallahassee Dream Home

This Southern tidewater cottage is the perfect vacation hideaway--easily blending into the seaside scenery. The Key West style boasts a charming stone and horizontal siding exterior. The wraparound entry porch is relaxing and inviting. Double doors open into the foyer--the study with built-in cabinetry is placed to the right and the formal dining room is to the left. An octagonal great room with a multifaceted vaulted ceiling illuminates the interior. This room boasts a fireplace, a built-in entertainment center, and three sets of double doors, which lead outside to a vaulted lanai. The island kitchen is brightened by a bumped-out window and a pass-through to the lanai. Two walk-in closets and a whirlpool bath await to indulge the homeowner in the master suite. A set of double doors open to the vaulted master lanai for quiet comfort. The U-shaped staircase leads to a loft, which overlooks the great room and the foyer. Two additional family bedrooms offer private baths. A computer center and a morning kitchen complete the upper level, before opening onto the outer deck. A three car garage and motor home court with media center in the basement completes the plan.
