Contemporary Family Residence, the River Road House

Situated in Sewall’s Point, Florida, this family residence measures about 12,300 square feet. The house is perfectly built on the hillside with amazing view of the water and landscape beyond. Finished by Hughes Umbanhowar Architects, the house is designed for a young family that desires a great relation between out and indoor. Completed in 2008, the house exterior is mainly highlighted some elements such as glass, limestone, stucco, and mahogany outline, creating a charming look to the design. The house is very opened to the outside with two dominant volumes, a large swimming pool and green garden. The courtyards and cantilevered decks are the most perfect spot to enjoy the inland waterway and refreshing surrounding view. The interior is furnished in contemporary style with modern furniture such as the bulthaup kitchen. Some elements like mahogany, Minnesota limestone and plaster finishes create a gracious look of the interior design. The River Road House is a complex residential building that looks very comfortable for a living space.
