The Nautica: A Waterfront Retreat with Family at Heart
When life brings unexpected changes, a home can transform to meet new needs without losing its charm. Taylor’s latest project, The Nautica, exemplifies this beautifully. Located on a stunning waterfront property, this home became a haven for multigenerational living with the addition of a thoughtfully designed in-law apartment and a detached garage. The result is a harmonious blend of functionality and aesthetics, perfect for family living while preserving the home’s coastal appeal.

A Waterfront Dream Home
The Nautica’s serene waterfront setting provided the perfect backdrop for this renovation. Expansive views of the water are celebrated with large windows and a sprawling covered porch, offering a space to relax and take in the picturesque surroundings. This porch became a central feature, seamlessly connecting the main home with the in-law apartment while maintaining a cohesive exterior design.
A Purposeful In-Law Apartment
Creating a separate yet attached living space for the clients’ parents was the heart of this renovation. The in-law apartment was designed with care, featuring:
A private entrance to ensure independence while staying connected to the main home.
An open-concept living area, offering a spacious and welcoming atmosphere.
A fully equipped kitchenette, blending style and practicality.
A cozy bedroom and en suite bath, ensuring comfort and accessibility.
The apartment’s design mirrors the aesthetic of the main home, with consistent finishes and thoughtful touches that elevate the space.
A Detached Garage with Purpose
The addition of a detached garage not only enhanced the property’s functionality but also contributed to its overall charm. The garage provides ample storage and workspace, while its design complements the main house and apartment, creating a unified look across the property.
Thoughtful Design for Multigenerational Living
Taylor’s approach to The Nautica was guided by the clients’ need for a home that could grow with their family while honoring its waterfront beauty. The project prioritized:
Seamless integration: The in-law apartment and garage were carefully designed to look as though they’d always been part of the home.
Accessibility: Features like wide doorways and a single-level layout in the in-law suite ensure the space is welcoming and practical for older family members.
Connection to nature: Large windows and outdoor spaces emphasize the home’s stunning location, allowing the family to enjoy the water views from every angle.
Your Dream Home Awaits
The Nautica stands as a testament to the power of thoughtful design in creating a home that truly meets the needs of its family. Whether you’re planning for multigenerational living or dreaming of your own waterfront retreat, Taylor’s expertise can bring your vision to life.
