We hope everyone stayed safe during the hurricane last week and our thoughts are with those who were impacted. On the eve of the long weekend last week, two of our favorite projects came to a close and we are so happy for our new homeowners!

Our last Point Verona project is now home to a wonderful couple from DC who are excited to explore Charleston and the Lowcountry with their family. Despite working with us remotely, this couple’s vision of a coastal retreat seamlessly came to life over numerous conference calls, emails and Facetime sessions. Stay tuned as we partner with Emily Stallings of Stallings Studio to furnish and style the home for the professional photoshoot!

Our newly renovated home on Buist Avenue in Park Circle is also saying hello to its new homeowners this weekend. This house made a huge transformation during the renovation process and before picture can be found in our blog post from May 23rd, 2019. I know the new homeowners will enjoy the scenic duck pond view from their double-decker porches as they settle into their new home.

We could not have executed either of these homes without the help from our DCH team, subcontractors and suppliers. We want to thank everyone for their hard work and support in turning these projects into the homes and retreats that our homeowners will cherish with their families.

Our thoughts and prayers are going out to the Bahamas and to everyone who was affected by the hurricane.

Our second Point Verona home came to a close last week and we are thrilled with how it turned out! Located in the Point Verona community off of Harbor View Road, this home boasts an incredible view of the Charleston Harbor from the rooftop deck. These homeowners will enjoy sea breezes and cocktails (from the top floor wet bar) while watching sailboats zig-zag to Fort Sumter and back. The interior of the home has a transitional calmness where modern elements harmonize with traditional elements. The traditional picketed staircase threads through the home’s modern vertical floorplan from the great room to the rooftop. The great room encompasses the kitchen, living room and dining room and is bathed in natural light from a dozen oversized windows. The large wood-stained island is the main feature of the kitchen. It complements the darker variations seen in the light oak flooring that runs through-out the house. A leathered quartzite slab sits atop the cabinets where variegated grey and brown veining picks up on the wood-tones of the cabinets and the grey-tones of the tile backsplash. There is an underlying symmetry through-out the kitchen that demonstrates how well-thought-out the space is. Overall, we are excited for our homeowners to get settled into their new home and enjoy the harbor views.

We completed our first Point Verona home earlier this week and we couldn’t be happier for our new homeowners. This 4-story, vertical, James Island home is embellished with sleek modern finishes through-out and features an expansive marsh view from the rooftop deck.

The kitchen’s satin black cabinets are draped in a grey-veined, white quartz and accented with champagne bronze pulls. The angled Brizo, lux-gold, faucet with knurled detailing adds a touch of glamour to the kitchen and complements the glossy, handmade, herringbone tile splashed behind the gas range. The cone pendants’ sleek caged canopy profile is seen repeated in the ultra-modern, black and gold, Peregrine ceiling fan.

The design scheme is then carried into the powder room where a lucite & gold framed mirror magnifies the black & white, deco-tiled wall. The natural wood elements of the living room floating shelves and the powder room custom-made, floating vanity bring warmth to the space.

The marine wire staircase along with the three-dozen windows make this home bright, light and fresh. The wet bar and bathrooms are adorned with modern fixtures and geometric mosaic tiles while the shiplap-clad 3rd floor ceiling draws you up to the rooftop terrace. We can’t wait to see how house 2 & 3 turn out in our Point Verona project!

While celebrating Thanksgiving with our family, we were able to reflect on this past year and we are so thankful for old & new friends, past & present projects and new homes & new lives.  We have had an amazing time revitalizing homes in the Park Circle Neighborhood and we met so many great people along the way. We are thankful for our new friends at the Carolina Youth Development Center as well as new friends at several local businesses in the Park Circle Neighborhood.  We are thankful for all of the new homeowners and are honored we were able to help them create new homes and become part of the Park Circle community. We are thankful for all of our local vendor and supplier relationships and the professionals that work with us to deliver our homes to our customers. We are thankful for our great team of carpenters and subcontractors who are the backbone of each project.  We could not build homes without them! We are thankful for past project homeowners and their recommendations that lead to current and new projects for our company to be involved in. Last, but certainly not least, we are so thankful for the latest addition to the Delpino Family, baby Knox!!

This winter you will find us in the midst of the holiday celebrations. We will be helping out with Toys For Tots and we will be participating in the Park Circle Christmas Tree Festival. Charleston Home + Design Magazine will be releasing their winter issue in the next few weeks so be on the lookout for our feature! We will also be finishing up a gorgeous 2^nd floor addition & remodel in the highly desirable Avondale neighborhood in West Ashley just before Christmas and we will be starting two new renovation projects in the New Year. We are expecting for 2018 to be an exciting year for us and we can’t wait to share it with you! Stay tuned for project updates, design tips, and fun events coming up. We hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season and a happy New Year!
