HOMES OF THE TREASURE COAST

The pool area, which includes two fire pits that double as fountains, is
anchored on either side by impressive white pergolas that provide the
Gibsons numerous outdoor areas where they can relax and entertain.
to the open outdoor space beyond the property, as well as
the firepit and pergola.
Enclosing the master bath are farm-style barn doors that
are not at all rustic.
“It’s a modern interpretation of a barn door,” Robert
Banov says. Painted bright white and hung on surfacemounted
black metal-brackets, the black and white combination
introduces the luxurious and stylized bathroom.
A large white tub is backed with turquoise-colored ceramic
Glazzio tile called Andalusia, liberally veined with
copper-colored variations. Dual sinks and dark cabinetry are
accentuated by toe-kick under-cabinet lighting. His and hers
walk-in closets occupy one side of the room with a doubleside
entry shower on the other. The subtle blue pebble floor
gives the shower room a touch of color.
A detached three-car garage is connected through a
breezeway. “The front entrance is for guests,” Amy Banov
says, “but the homeowner uses another entrance every day.”
The Banovs’ signature drop room is a transition space for the
homeowner, a place to drop your things and take off or put
on your shoes.
“We like to have clients enter their home into a place that
is not a laundry room,” Amy Banov. “We wanted to make it a
fun space,” Robert Banov says, “more personalized.”
Quality work, experienced subcontractors, exceptional
setting all add up to success. And polo in the community
enhances the specialness of the residence. On Sundays,
match-day, the grandchildren particularly enjoy watching
the fast-paced action as horses and players battle on the open
grass field that anchors the community.
A blue stone-filled fire pit, under the south side pergola, gets plenty of use
when the Gibson grandchildren come over to make s’mores.
