Designed by Kevin Pfirman, architect.A low sand dune planted with indigenous vegetation provides privacy from the cul-de-sac traffic. Two separate boardwalks act as a dune pass leading to the front entrance. Along this entrance, a built-in bench is placed for viewing the tropically landscaped koi pond and fish-feeding ritual. This landscape feature acts as the initial outdoor foyer, creating a calming effect–a place to pause and reflect before entering the home.The interior of the home is one part promontory, one part retreat. The promontory entrance is placed at grade, projecting out and over the gently falling hill, creating the main living space which acts as a viewing platform of the creek beyond. This space transforms into one great convertible room when the corner sliding doors open to the great porch, swimming pool, and sun deck. Abundant daylight allows plants to thrive within this environment where the time of day, year, and tide give the occupants a sense of belonging with nature at every moment.Escape the promontory to the retreat half of the house: a two-story sleeping wing with an upstairs den and downstairs gym. As private and sheltering as this half of the home is, there are many opportunities for overlook, surveillance, and prospect as well from carefully placed windows and balconies.The home fosters a lifestyle of connectivity to nature. With a 24′ boat slip and lift steps away from the terrace, the short trip to the beach–The result is a home that feels natural and welcoming, offering comfort, privacy, and an easy connection to the surrounding landscape.
