From Robin Maynard

Experience the epitome of 30A living in this architecturally distinct home, masterfully designed by Carey McWhorter in 1995 as his personal residence. Seamlessly blending modern sophistication with timeless charm. Its minimalist vernacular is evident in every detail, from the flat roof terrace to the separate structure that offers versatile space, perfect as an additional bedroom, living area, or a creative studio. The home's interior is a study in contrasts, featuring exposed block walls that exude raw elegance, galvanized steel stair components that add an industrial edge, and reclaimed heart pine floors that bring warmth and history to the space.

The Rumford fireplace offers both form and function, serving as a cozy focal point, while vintage jalousie windows on the third-floor terrace invite Gulf breezes.
The design is truly harmonious within its surroundings, thoughtfully nestled into the landscape so as not to disturb the natural beauty that defines Seagrove Beach. The home's low profile and use of earth-toned materials allow it to blend seamlessly with the environment, making it a sanctuary that feels at one with the coastal ecosystem. Positioned just a half-block from the beach and within walking distance to local dining favorites, this home is a solid and stylish embodiment of 30A's unique charm and McWhorter Architects' enduring legacy.
