A Home Designed for Living
Completed in 2006, the interior was a true labor of love. Linda spent months curating furniture and furnishings from across the Southeast, creating a space that felt both elevated and deeply welcoming.
It was designed to be lived in full-time. The layout features generous office space that comfortably accommodates two remote work setups, alongside a dedicated, quiet hobby room. For nearly two decades, this home provided us with a wonderful life. We spent our days walking to the beach for swims and sunsets, exploring local craft breweries and restaurants, and filling the rooms with the laughter of visiting friends and family.
-The Next Chapter
Following Linda's passing, this beautiful home holds too many memories for me to stay, but it remains a profound testament to the life and dreams we shared here. This house was built to be a sanctuary, a place of joy, and a bedrock for a beautiful life. My deepest hope is to pass it on to someone who will cherish the craftsmanship, embrace the incredible 30A lifestyle, and fill these walls with wonderful new memories of their own.
