Join us as we dive into this remarkable renovation journey, showcasing how modern style, hurricane resilience, and coastal elegance come together in perfect harmony.

A Stylish Transformation on Fort Myers Beach

This beachside home underwent a dramatic transformation that blends modern style with timeless coastal elegance. After a hurricane necessitated repairs, the homeowners took the opportunity to update their home to reflect today’s design trends. The results are a stunning custom home renovation that combines resilience with beauty.

Upgrading the Staircase: A Bold First Impression

The staircase received a complete rebuild. We replaced old handrails and balusters with sleek, modern alternatives. We also refinished all the treads, bringing out their natural beauty. The updated staircase now creates a striking focal point as soon as you step inside.

Kitchen Makeover: Sophistication Meets Functionality

The kitchen got a complete update as part of this Fort Myers Beach remodel. The owners initially wanted to keep their original countertops but decided to upgrade to luxurious quartzite, a premium stone that adds sophistication. We also installed new cabinets, blending style with practicality. The kitchen is now the perfect space for both cooking and entertaining.

Creating a Spa-Like Master Bath

The master bath underwent a complete redesign. We reconfigured the layout to optimize space and enhance the overall aesthetic. The final result? A spa-like retreat that mirrors the beauty of its beachfront surroundings.

Exterior Revamp: Embracing Modern Coastal Design

The home’s exterior was completely reimagined during this Fort Myers Beach remodel. We replaced the outdated shutters and yellow paint with a more neutral palette. Stacked stone accents added texture and style. The front door received a custom glass design, giving the entryway a contemporary touch.

Outdoor Living Space: A Serene Retreat

The outdoor living area became an extension of the home’s elegant style. We created a relaxing space with panoramic ocean views. The pool was completely revamped to complement the home’s fresh look, creating an inviting outdoor oasis.

Design Collaboration with Jennifer Sloan

Jennifer Sloan of Design & Company, the original designer of this stunning beachfront home in 2015, was invited back to refresh and update the interior to meet today’s design trends. With her deep understanding of the home’s coastal charm, Jennifer brought a fresh perspective, blending modern aesthetics with the original coastal vibe. Working closely with Alair, she infused each space with her signature style, choosing premium materials and creating a cohesive design that feels both timeless and contemporary. From selecting luxurious quartzite countertops to redesigning the master bath and reimagining the kitchen, Jennifer’s keen eye for design ensured that the home was transformed into a stunning coastal retreat that would impress for years to come.

“Collaborating with Jennifer has been an absolute pleasure. Her meticulous attention to detail and creative vision have truly elevated this home. It’s not just about updating a space; she has a remarkable ability to reimagine it. In fact, we’re so pleased with this project that we’re partnering with her on several other remodels in the area. It’s always exciting to work together on projects she was originally a part of, bringing fresh ideas while honoring the homes’ original designs.”
