We had some great weather, clouds and sun over the past two weekends. Such being the case, I took some new photos that really update showcase how great this house looks against a beautiful blue Galveston sky. Enjoy the slideshow and check out the updated shots in the gallery.

New Beachtown Dream Home paint scheme viewed from primary dune walkover.
Well, after days and weeks of consideration, we chose our exterior paint scheme and the home is now painted. And we couldn’t be more pleased. See if you don’t agee. New pictures are now posted to the Gallery.
Because we designed our home to match the look and feel of the homes you will see at Seaside, Florida, we went with a bright blue color scheme. At first it seemed too bold of a color choice, however, we quickly realized that when the sun is at full strength, it tends to wash out the colors. So lighter blues ended up just looking white.
The colors are as follows:
Note: We only used top-of-the-line Sherman William paints designed specifically to handle tough coastal environments.

Gourmet cooks are going to love the Beachtown Dreamhome's amazing kitchen.
Again, I am always shocked by how much work is done between our visits. This past weekend, we finalized the details of our exterior paint plan and were thrilled to see the dark hardwood floors, carpet, kitchen lights, and cabinet hardware all installed.
Our “Something’s Gotta Give” inspired kitchen is nearly complete and our Seaside, Florida inspired coastal vernacular beach home is just weeks away from being done.
We have decided to hold our second open house over labor day weekend. So if you have been secretly reading this blog and have been wanting to tour the home for yourself, please plan on attending. Stay tuned to our blog for official open house hours.
Until then, enjoy the new pictures in the gallery!

This "Something's Gotta Give Kitchen" looks great with the new paint.
It is amazing what our builders have accomplished in just two weeks. All interior painting is completed. All trim work is done. Cabinets are fully installed. And our amazing Barn Door Room divider is finished and installed.
The interior sliding barn door might very well be one of my favorite surprise features in the home. When fully opened, the entire first floor flows from front porch to back. When closed, you have an entire suite closed off from the rest of the home.
Enjoy the pictures. I’ll be posting more in the coming weeks as we complete our cabinet hardware, bathroom accessories, ceiling fans, and exterior paint selections.

Down at the Beachtown Dream Home today to pick interior and exterior paint colors. I was extremely excited to see the kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, and media room granite counter tops installed.
I am absolutely thrilled w/ our choices.
I can’t wait to see how all of hte cabinets and islands pop once the walls are painted.
As far as our paint colors, we are going with blue, light blue and white. The exteriors will also be blue, white and some grey.
I look forward to posting pictures. Once I get the final paint swatches from my designer, I’ll scan and post them.
And for the record…we were out on the Galveston beach today and no tarballs! A bit overblown in my opinion.

While I can’t say these are final just yet, these amazing Circa brand lights are definitely our top choices for the kitchen and nook area and the Barn Light Electric company galvanized lights for porches, stairwells and to light the ground floor under the home. These lights have the perfect look and feel for this coastal inspired Beachtown Dream Home.

Beachtown Dream Home cabinets and oversized island.
Well…it has been a long time since my last blog entry and a ton has changed in the home. Our builder let the trim carpenter loose and he has done an absolutely amazing job making the cabinet and built-in elevations an amazing and beautiful reality. We have added and updated pictures on the gallery page.
Enjoy!
