House- Salt Box Lane Cottage

Starting with a simple blueprint, we watched this house grow every day into something really special for our client Jim Steckel. We looked at each white space on the plan and created tile designs for the bathrooms, the kitchen layout and cabinet designs, added arched doorways, cypress accents and vaulted ceilings. We also created a new finish for the tongue and groove pine walls that gave them a velvety gray appearance so the natural texture of the wood grain shows through. And for the flooring, we custom finished oak wood planks by first wire brushing, then white washing, sanding and finally finishing with a stain- very beachy and reminiscent of driftwood. Top it all off with a few mercury glass pendants, a driftwood orb in the stairwell and a beaded chandelier in the dining room and we had a pretty spectacular beach home. Not only was it a lot of fun but we couldn't be happier with the end result.

Let me start by saying "I love every single one of your homes!" I absolutely love the look of this velvety gray pine wood wall! I would love to know your technique to try it in my own home. I have tried so many different methods and haven't been successful. Thank you so much! Brooke

    Old Seagrove Homes was created out of a chance meeting one summer night on a roof deck overlooking the beach in 2007. While Alex was already running a construction company, Cynthia had studied fine arts and design. Three children and many projects later, the couple knew that what had started out as a construction company, was quickly growing into something much more. Today, Alex and Cynthia Rice work together as a design team, building inspiring homes from conception to construction and custom finishes. Thanks for following along with us!
