Jump to get blown away by these sexy, exotic interiors!
First, we love the iron and two-way glass front door. No more worrying about walking around half-dressed and having a porch delivery person see you through the front door! Brilliant! Of course, when you step inside, the genius upgrades just keep coming in this 5,137-square-foot Santa Barbara-inspired home.
There are three bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, formal living and dining rooms, a three-car garage, and three fireplaces in this stellar contemporary/transitional home. Saladino, who has an extensive design background himself, has listed this beauty at 5 Bretton Creek Court for $1.685 million.
“I think the exotic materials — especially the built-ins flanking the massive modern stone fireplace — create a rich, warm feel that envelopes the otherwise open layout of the dining room,” Saladino said. “Velvet upholstery and brocade throws make it lush and sexy. The owner has a wonderful bohemian streak that runs through the decor without being too referenced or overpowering.”
The cool accent color palette helps, bringing in pops of teal and silver in just the right spots. We love the exposed beams that run from the kitchen through to the living room, as well as those sliding doors concealing the office/drawing room from the main entertaining areas. The faux alligator insets on the drawing room doors, when opened recall the deep gray/black textured paper covering the walls within.
“The columns that frame the area where the piano sits create a romantic archway further helping to define areas without sacrificing the sight lines,” Saladino added.
“The massive open doorway leading out to the patio/lanai blurs any definition of indoor/outdoor spaces to create a large inviting entertaining area,” Saladino said. “This area can be as formal as cocktails and caviar under the sunset to a raucous, fun-filled Super Bowl party with delicious grilled steaks and homemade pizzas just arms length from the action.”
Upstairs, though, things take on a whole different level of sex appeal.
We love the exotic hardwood floors that add texture to the master bedroom, which has lacquered walls and a tray ceiling that gives the room a satiny, sinful feel. The modern black marble fireplace gives the room depth and warmth, and the faux animal skins on the floor add a little naughtiness to the design.
In the master bath we see even more black marble, with the soaking tub underneath a glittering Venetian chandelier being the focal point. It feels so posh, with Art Deco touches that take you back to the 1920s. And then there’s that closet!
“I brought the Zebra striped velvet fauteuil in from the bedroom,” Saladino added, “as I envisioned a seating area fit for Jean Harlow to slip off her marabou-trimmed robe and satin slippers before entering the bath.”
