wall surfaces, archways and a prominent
old English-style chimney. Storybook style is
a streamlined version of Tudor Revival, ideal
for the somewhat small-to-average lot sizes

This whimsical style of architecture appealed
to the current owners, as did the
historic neighborhood itself. Equally appealing
was the recent renovation that made
it a “turnkey” home ready for immediate
occupancy.
“The main attraction was its charm and
uniqueness,” Jan notes. “We have always
been interested in homes with character and
avoided cookie-cutter ones. And St. Lucie
Estates is a wonderful mixture of people who
tend to embrace the fact that this neighborhood
is full of history. There’s a sense of pride
and appreciation.”
Other storybook style elements add to the
allure of this St. Lucie Estates house, such as
rows of single-hung windows that dominate
the façade. Their upper sash is divided with
gridded mullions and subdivided into small
single pieces of glass. On the right side of the
facade, a palladium window with its original
glass is above a pair of single-hung windows.
Extensive renovations by the previous
owners include a new roof and a newly
remodeled bathroom, along with hurricane >>
Dan and Janice Thomas fell in love with the quirky charm of their home. They also appreciated
