This week Craig and I had the opportunity to view some homes in the 2009 Parade of Homes for Walton and Okaloosa County. This is a great event to see the latest designs and building trends. All the builders worked very hard on these projects to get them ready in time and it is definitely a must see if you are in town or a local in the area. All of the homes are amazing and we focused on the homes in our South Walton Area primarily the WaterSound and WaterColor homes. Every year these are our favorite homes to view. It is a lot of work and the builders deserve a pat on the back for making it happen in such a difficult market. The number of homes in the parade was down this year…however they had 31 great homes to view from Crestview to Sandestin to WaterSound.
This week I am going to start the list with three homes in the Parade of Homes since they were all amazing and each unique enough to make my list.

Home in WaterSound: Best Interior – 12 Shorebridge Circle by Dune Construction

David Lillienthal with Dune Construction did a wonderful job of building the 3,021sf WaterSound home for a second home owner. The interiors were amazing and designed by Kelly Porter-Smith of Porter-Smith Design. This house was also a Parade of Homes Blue Ribbon Winner. This WaterSound home had walnut floors, hand distressed cypress beams and columns, extensive wood walls, custom iron railing, custom cabinetry and lots of natural stone and tile throughout. This WaterSound Luxury Home was my Top Pick for Best Interior.
