HOMES OF THE TREASURE COAST

Couple blends the flavor of the Lone Star
state with views off Sailfish Point
A team of four separate partners
came together and fulfilled
a mandate: create an elegant
Sailfish Point residence with a touch of
Texas flavor built in.
The project was a new construction
home for Diana and Randy Hoover
who were moving to Stuart from
Houston. They were interested in a
home structured for outdoor as much as
indoor living.
The Hoovers chose Gary Kelly of
Kelly & Kelly Architects to design the
home and Scott J. Holmes to build it.
Kelly recommended Kerry Allabastro of
Allabastro Designs for the design and
decorating. Her imaginative approach
helped realize the Hoovers’ mission
to incorporate special art and furnishings
from their Texas home. They broke
ground in May 2017.
Designer and architect walked every
step together with the homeowners,
designing molding details, selecting
flooring, cabinetry, tones.
“Everything was built from the
flooring all the way up to paint colors,”
Allabastro says.
The expansive new residence, 6,800
square feet under air with extensive additional
outdoor living space, exemplifies
an unambiguous mix of modern and
traditional, sophisticated and casual. >>
