The kitchen features an open floor plan,
making it easy to host plenty of guests. It has a
large island and separate dining area, allowing for
plenty of seating during meals. Large windows
allow in lots of natural light. It has Cambria
Britannica quartz countertops and custom cabinets
built by Longfellow.
White barn doors on sliders are widely used
throughout the house to close off rooms for privacy,
or to allow them to be open and seemlessly flow into
adjoining rooms.
The house has two master suites, one on the
second floor and one on the third. Each has its
own balcony that provides wonderful sunset views
at the end of each day. Another bedroom features
two custom-built bunk beds, perfect for Foster’s
grandchildren. A guest bedroom features another
balcony, this one looking east and providing beautiful
views of the sunrise—a great spot to have a cup of
coffee in the morning—while a small fifth balcony
extends off a living area on the third floor.
On the street level, just outside of his twocar
garage, Foster had roughly 700 square feet of
covered space that he has enclosed in lattice and
upon which he has set up a table, chairs and a
grill. It’s a great place for when people want to
get out of the sun, escape a fast-moving rain
shower, or take a lunch break before heading back
to the beach. Foster is also converting an area that
was originally designed as a storage room into
a second kitchen.
“We do three or four big parties every year,” says
Foster. “Especially on road race day. We have a big
contingency, and we do it up right.”
The master bedroom
leads out to the same
deck to which the great
room connects.
