Additional Features:
Designer’s own Southport Village Farmhouse has been completely transformed and reimagined for todays’s living. After several prior renovations, the current owners went back to the studs to create a gem a home on one of Southport’s most coveted tree lined streets. The classic Historic Connecticut facade carefully masks what awaits on the interior. The spaces are open and bright and the house flows wonderfully for everyday living and entertaining. Much thought went into creating optimal use of space for storage and display. The walls are sheathed in wood paneling, Venetian plaster and leather rather than traditional drywall. The results are both elegant and chic while remaining livable and low maintenance. Landscape architect, Wesley Stout, created a amazing outdoor living area with a private pool area reminiscent of in town Palm Beach homes. Quite unusual for the Village. Come experience the house everyone knows as “the one with the orange cushions on the front porch.”
