Southern Living Idea House 2009

Wes and I toured the Southern Living Idea House in Port Aransas. It was a beautiful home. Here are some photos we snapped while taking the tour!


Double sided outdoor fireplace-- Check

4 outdoor porches-- Check

There was another washer and dryer directly across from this set! If I had this setup I would never complain about having to do laundry again!
2 washers and 2 dryers-- check




Chandelier in bathroom-- check









This was up in the loft area.




Outdoor shower--check

I wasn't able to get a good picture of this because of the light but this area is detached from the house. You can see the kayaks hanging above, the the left is a fish cleaning area (with granite countertops I might add!!), to the right was the outdoor shower. Also to the left is a stair case that leads up into the mother in law quarters.

Mother-in-Law Quarters--Check


This house "checks" out! (you'll have to excuse my cheesiness ;o) )

This house sold for a measly 1.8 million dollars and the guy who it was sold to bought it as a vacation home! Chump change... I know! We had alot of fun touring this house! You can see more photos at http://www.southernliving.com/home-garden/idea-houses/texas-idea-house-2009-00400000050550/
