WATERSOUND WEST BEACH

WaterSound West Beach, FL 2008

Inspired by the rich traditions of northeastern maritime architecture, the Sagamore incorporates simplicity and sensibilities synonymous with its southern coastal use. Spacious porches, deep overhangs, asymmetrical massing, and long inhabitable dormers are but a few of the features that make this shingled hybrid unique yet familiar.
