When we were looking for a beach house, I wanted a small beach cottage, like I stayed in growing up. A small, beachy smelling (be that good or bad) little place, with only one requirement, that it be near the water for surfing. My better half, on the other hand, just wanted a place near the water that would hold our family (which continues to grow). After a lengthy search, we happened upon Grey Gulle. It was perfect for both of us (without the "beachy smell"). We have tried to make the home one that, when someone enters, they immediately feel the presence of being at the beach. It is a work in progress, but we continue to work to make the home the ultimate beach experience.
