Carcaba Road Coastal Farmhouse


Photography by Mathers Photography

Just off the gorgeous beaches of Saint Augustine, Florida, Jody and Jessica Davis designed and built this custom coastal modern farmhouse. With a spacious backyard overlooking the marsh, breathtaking ocean views from their upstairs balcony, and an open, airy interior, this home is coastal living at it’s finest! Choosing a basic box shape and a simple roof line for their home allowed the Davis’ to build their home in a very cost effective manner. However, the intricate details throughout, abundance of natural light and premium fixtures and finishes give the home a very high end luxurious feel.

From the exterior, this home exudes coastal vibes. Incorporating shakes, siding and board and batten gives the simplistic shape and monotone color texture and adds visual interest. The white trim looks so crisp and clean against the aptly named “Shark Skin” gray. Reminiscent of driftwood, their fiberglass doors are the perfect tone for their coastal vibe.

From the moment you enter this home, the open airiness of the floor plan immediately greets you. The lines between the indoors and outdoors are blurred by the abundance of windows, transoms and glass doors allowing the sunshine to stream in.

Just to the left as you enter the home, you find a unique space that some may call a keeping room. Jess calls it her ‘birthday present opening room’ as they have found it to be the perfect spot to pile around the birthday boy or girl as they open their presents. With a fireplace making the room as cozy as can be, this is the perfect room for visiting with a friend. After searching for months for the perfect mantle, the gorgeous one you see was actually a random board Jess found in their old garage! It just so happened to be the exact size and shape she had been looking for! It adds so much character to the space with its authentic wear. Using shiplap on one wall adds just the right amount of character and the shelves create a functional way to display Jess’ favorite things.

This living rom effortlessly gives a relaxed sense of breezy beach living while introducing elements of the farmhouse style. The distressed whitewash paint on the coffee table adds the perfect farmhouse touch. The oversized sofa is the perfect choice of color and fabric to emphasize comfort and casual living indicative of coastal style. Choosing to bring in pops of color with throw pillows and an area rug adds a cool, airy feel that can easily be updated or changed seasonally.
