PORT ST. LUCIE HOMES
the hangers found at the top. The frameless glass shower is
a “car wash” with two shower heads and four sprayers with
six-way diverters, Gulash said. Throughout the home, including
the master bedroom, TVs are recessed into the wall with
supports and dedicated outlets to hide wires.
For their 1-year-old daughter, Talyn, the couple converted
the bedroom off the master into a nursery complete with a
recessed changing shelf and a paint scheme appropriate for
a princess.
Where there was an empty outside porch is now a
screened-in lanai with outdoor kitchen, tumbled marble
countertops and a gas grill connected to the home’s propane
system fed by an in-ground 500-gallon tank. Electric outlets
were added along with hot and cold running water.
Every light fixture inside and out was replaced. While the
home does not have a pool, Gulash wired it so electric is
available and a gas line was installed for a pool heater. Attic
decking allows for additional storage accessible from pulldown

stairs.
EXTERIOR FRESHENED UP
Except for paint, very little was done to the exterior of the
home, which is CBS construction with barrel tile roof. The
landscaping, which had been neglected, was brought back
to life by Gulash, who was a golf course superintendent in a
previous career.
From 2004-2013, the Gulashes were “storm chasers” picking
up the pieces of natural disaster with as many as 135
people working for him. “I have had them (homeowners) cry
on my shoulder after their home was destroyed and I have
had them cry on my shoulder when the work was done.”
Both guest bathrooms were completely redone with new tile floors, new
>> showers and new countertops.
The Gulashes chose the color Tiffany blue for 1-year-old Talyn’s nursery. Beadboard below the chair rail gives the room a kid-friendly look.
