We demolished the existing one-story home to retrofit a two-story 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom luxury home investment with the full interior design of a smart home concept. The garage would include double-height to allow for a car lift, landscaping native to Florida would be used to enhance the architecture of the home, and the design would feature a family-friendly suite incorporating ADA and universal compliant design. We ensured every square inch of this home could be utilized and functional, with plenty of storage space, living space, and entertaining space.

Located in an area prone to hurricanes and warm weather just about all year long, energy efficiency was key in the design of this luxury home investment. We were presented with a tight deadline to make this project a profitable one for the investor. Nonetheless, the home would be an art piece planned out thoroughly, identifying sun path, circulation, accessibility, visuals, and other architectural aspects.

The first floor consists of an open space floor plan, giving opportunity for plenty of natural light throughout the home, without compromising excessive energy consumption prevented by the tinted impact resistant windows. The separate HVAC units also maximize efficiency by providing ventilation to social areas, and bedroom areas individually. The home location’s sun path justifies the recessed floor plan design of the second floor promoting more direct sunlight to maintain the pool warm year-round.

With a line of sight from the foyer to the pool deck, the flow of this home creates a space where entertaining is the core of the interior design. From the foyer, you are visually led to the pool deck, seamlessly connecting the indoor entertaining, to the outdoor. The kitchen window leading to the covered BBQ porch area highlights the practicality of having direct access.

The first floor has two bedrooms with full bathrooms, one of which is an In-law suite including its fully ADA compliant bathroom. The powder bathroom is accessible from the outdoor pool shower for convenience. The second floor has three bedrooms, each with balcony access and plenty of natural light from the large picture window at the double-height foyer below.

This beautiful contemporary home was planned out with every detail in mind, making it practical and move-in ready for any new homeowner. From the carefully thought-out placement of the family room that effortlessly becomes a media entertainment room, to the double-height garage made to fit a car lift, it’s no wonder this investment home was sold in a short amount of time, and for more than the asking price.
