Tallahassee: Live Oak Cottage
iPIX Photography by Robin Spooner

Named for a majestic tree that shades the rear of the property, Live Oak Cottage is located in SouthWood, a master planned community by Arvida, a St. Joe Company. The 3,200-square-foot home is designed for homeowners approximately 45 to 60 years old who are experiencing significant life-stage changes.

Architects Carson Looney and David Kenoyer created this plan for couples who are approaching retirement and whose children no longer live at home. Mike Reininger, senior vice president of creative services for The St. Joe Company, says, "We wanted to come up with a design that would respond in tangible ways to the unique needs of baby boomers who are in transition." Timothy Edmond, Arvida's Capital Region president, adds, "It demonstrates the newest trends in floorspace design and efficiency." The single-level home with its large windows looks friendly and familiar. "We wanted Live Oak Cottage to have roots as a traditional house yet, at the same time, produce a fresh image," says Carson.
