Bridge to home entry over lush garden walkway. The bridge has aluminum Ithaca style cable railing posts. Railings by Keuka Studios www.keuka-studios.com

Existing 1972 house gets a new modern tropical renovation to the rear that creates a fantastic space for the family to enjoy the Queensland outdoor lifestyle. High ceilings to capture sea breezes, spotted gum timber decking boards and Blackbutt timber to enhance the warmth of the space.

A view of the front balcony overlooking the lushly landscaped front gardens. The balcony railing is composed of a wood top rail and posts, painted white to match the window and door trim, with stainless steel cables below. The stainless steel cables provide a nautical look in keeping with Key West and permit more open views. The french doors may be left open and the louvered doors closed to allow ocean breezes.
