Happy Easter, my friends! I hope you’re being able to enjoy this long weekend surrounded by your loved ones! I’ll be cooking, baking and enjoying quiet time with my family. But before I do that, I wanted to leave you guys with a very special “Beautiful Homes of Instagram” feature.
Jessica of @carcabaroad, along with her husband Jody, designed and build this coastal farmhouse to raise their growing family. They tried to keep costs down while building this beach house and Jessica is sharing a few details about that here on Home Bunch.
Besides being busy raising their four children, they also have FOUR rental properties in Florida and, listen closely, they have renovated or built and designed all of them. How do they do all that? I am sure Jessica hides a “Superwoman” cape somewhere in her closet!
Enjoy this inspiring house tour and now you know whom to contact if you’re planning a vacay in Florida!
“People often ask how we keep our home so tighty and WHITE with four children. Our home is not always as seen on Instagram, it took days to make the entire home photo ready for the shoot. With endless options in design I tend to play it safe with neutrals and white because you can always add greenery or a pop of color with a rug, its easy to switch up a space once you become bored with it if your base is light. Our house lives well and is most definitely lived in! We make slime, we bake, we build forts, but we also are intentional about our purchases. Lately when we go on a target run we try and ask ourselves “do we need this?” One refreshing thing about moving was simplifying and decluttering and I have tried to keep up with that organization and clean slate. Rather then each kid.coming home with a junk toy, we will buy a family board game or legos, a seasonal craft. something they can do together. Like every child it can a challenge to do chores but we try to make them keep their rooms clean.”
Beautiful Homes of Instagram: Coastal Farmhouse
Welcome to our Florida farmhouse! My husband and I designed and built the 2,900 sq ft 6 bedroom 3 bath home after finding this beautiful 75 by 130 sqft lot in Paradise just a block from the beach and short walk to the intercoastal.
Curb Appeal
We kept a basic exterior to stay in the budget and added versatile siding, a double door entry, front porch and back upper deck to dress up the exterior.
Paint Color
The grey exterior paint color is Behr Sharkskin PPU25-04.
Siding: Hardie.
Dream Home
Creating this home in our minds and seeing it come to life from the ground-up was truly our greatest achievement and a dream come true.
Windows
What a curb-appeal! Windows are MI Windows 1620 Series.

Welcome
Our main goal as a family of 6 with 4 growing children was to build a house with an open floor plan that we could grow along with. I am one of six kids and we did a lot of room changes through our adolescence some of us as siblings would share rooms and then at other ages we would want our own space. I was sure to keep the future in mind while designing this floor plan. We shrunk the sq footage of the bedrooms to maximize living space and added a second upstairs living area. We we’re blessed with a beautiful view and windows and transoms were definitely on our top must haves.

Keeping Room
Definitely there’s no need for a fireplace in Florida but I’ve always dreamed of one and my husband surprised me one day and came home with it. That began the search for the perfect mantle and believe it or not the old piece of drift wood we used was sitting in our garage brought back from the Bahamas by his uncle. It was part of an old ship and all of the holes are from sea worms. Adds the perfect amount of character to this modern space.

Kitchen
As a mom of four with a husband that surfs and fishes I spend most of my time in the laundry room and in the kitchen and they are the two spaces that my husband loosened the budget belt.

We believe “to be happy at home is the ultimate result of all ambition”. Our homes are our platforms for being and doing our best in the world, and the places where we live out our most precious, private moments. We hope to install that in our children and hope they follow their dreams to their logical conclusions where they almost all boil down to having a happy home, where we and our families can thrive and enjoy happy, secure and sometimes messy lives.
