The Point Residence

Inspired by grand-antebellum architecture, but designed for a young California couple, this residence, located in the Point neighborhood of Palmetto Bluff, combines old-world elegance with a modern flair. A formal front façade, with overscaled columns and grand stair hall, lead into a large living room open to the kitchen and surrounded by a wraparound porch. Marble, paneled walls, herringbone floors, and brass hardware create an upscale setting while the wide sliding-glass doors that open onto the expansive screened porch allow for contemporary indoor/outdoor living. Carpeted bedrooms, his-and-hers master baths, and a third-floor loft office create comfort and modern convenience for this young family.
