NEW BEGINNINGS:

T
first home. It seems every year our New Year’s list includes at least one major home improvement project that requires planning and staging. Home Shows offer us a great opportunity to see a vast number of vendors, products and the newest home innovations. If we had to drive around town and visit all the exhibitors at just one Home Show, it would take at least a month. Home Shows are well worth the price of admission especially when winter drives us all inside for weeks on end. Home Shows are places to make your dreams become reality.
O EVERY BEGINNING, there is an ending and to every ending a beginning. For each endeavor in life we undertake either measured by time or task, there is a starting point and a finishing point. Once again, we find ourselves at a new beginning as the year behind has now transformed us into the year ahead. In December, just a few days before Christmas, Winter Solstice closes the book on Fall for the year. Winter is the only season that begins in one year and ends in the next, maybe that is why it seems so long. In fact, winter rarely ends on its final day of March 21st, it lingers on and on. By press deadline on this issue, we will have all entered a new year, a new calendar for planning, a new set of goals for our lives, our homes, and our family. This issue begins our Home Show season for 2020; it’s a great place to begin for all our home improvement projects and upgrades. We get to browse all the vendors, ask questions, get price estimates, show specials, and generally get fully informed on the new home projects we have planned. Each year we set a number of new goals for the year ahead. For some, it will be a new home, for others an addition or major project to our existing home and for others, it may be the big step of buying your
We have taken great strides to get our magazine out to more and more readers with every issue. While many receive the magazine through direct mail, others still pick it up at some of their favorite and most frequent stops each month.

ROWING UP IN CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS, I have always been surrounded by big chain restaurants – the kinds that everyone knows and loves, that you see at various rest stops on road trips and end up often choosing simply based on familiarity in new cities. After spending four years in a small town in Rhode Island throughout college, I came to know and love family-owned eateries that not only provided excellent food and drink, but really
made you feel right at home. There is nothing better than sitting back and relaxing with family and friends at an establishment that is truly focused on hospitality, details, quality and making sure that you are comfortable and happy. That is why I am so thankful to not only have dined at some of the best restaurants on the South Coast, but also to have met some of the nicest, caring restaurant owners that made my experience above and beyond expectations.

stunning, quaint town with beautiful
waterfront views. For lunch, I headed to KATE’S SIMPLE EATS, which is an
absolutely adorable café that started off
around 5 years ago solely as a retail shop.
Kate, the owner, began selling sandwiches
and salads, which before she knew it turned into a full-blown menu that kept Marion
residents and Cape tourists asking for more. After gutting the entire shop and rebuilding
and decorating, Kate’s Simple Eats was born! Now, 5 years later, the restaurant has a full menu that seasonally changes, a liquor
license, unique cocktails and a beautiful
seasonal outdoor patio. In the summer, they
offer live music on Thursday nights and have also become very popular for private events such as baby or wedding showers. The art
that is showcased throughout the café is from local artists, which is available for purchase. Kate’s Simple Eats is the perfect place to hang out with friends or family or grab
something quickly to go. The ambience of the café represents Marion as the sailing town
that it is, with the logo stemming from the foot tattoos of pigs and roosters that sailors used to get for good luck.

comfortable, with staff that truly makes you feel as if you have known them forever. The
walls are also full of art from local artists, and, if sold, The Atlantic Bistro donates to various charities in the community and area.
Chef Chris presented me with some of the
most popular items on their current menu,
Chicken Rice Bowl and the Turkey Apple Brie
Sandwich. The Ginger Chicken Rice Bowl was an amazing combination of diced chicken,
ginger carrots, shredded cabbage, cucumber
and black sesame scallion vinaigrette, all over a bed of white rice. It was perfectly portioned
and so delicious that I never wanted it to end! Next was the Turkey Apple Brie Sandwich,
which I was honored to be the first person to
ever try! Hands down, it was the best panini I have ever tasted in my life. It was full of roast turkey, apple compote and whipped brie, all
grilled on their harvest whole grain bread. Not
to mention, it had brown sugar and cinnamon flavoring, offering the most mouthwatering
combination of savory and sweet. I could not stress enough how fresh everything tasted –

eff Robinson’s impetus for building a second home on Cape Cod was the treasured family vacations he spent as a child in the idyllic seaside locale. For the new house he and his wife envisioned, they wanted a place where their four adult children could create memories of their own when they visited with their kids. Such a house would have to be very special, as would the team tasked to create it—architect, builder and interior designer.
Beneath a lofty tray ceiling with grasscloth panels, the great room mixes finishes, fabrics and textures while keeping the focus on the amazing ocean view.

With the architect, Erik Tolley, and builder, Mike Nardone, in place, a designer was needed to round out the team. Jeff and Nancy Robinson met with Irina MacPhee, owner of Pastiche of Cape Cod and the three hit it off instantly. Ten months later, at the reveal, Jeff, rarely speechless, found himself in a state of awe, searching for words. “I usually set my bar high,” he says. “I had high expectations for [Irina], and she blew them away. She is so darned intuitive, and she captured our lifestyle beyond what we had hoped for.”

Designers Irina MacPhee and her daughter Adin Weatherley are creative problem-solvers who share a passion for details.

Woven cane chairs complement the dining table’s distressed wood surface, which is both beautiful and practical.
To be a successful interior designer these days requires a lot more than having impeccable taste and a good eye. You have to be part psychologist and part mindreader. “It’s all about really getting to know the client so that I can make good choices that reflect them,” says MacPhee, who has received numerous awards since opening her business 32 years ago. With the Robinsons, she understood that their lifestyle was relaxed and family-oriented and that they wanted their home to be comfortable and have a coastal aesthetic. That was the start of an overall vision plan that would ultimately require decisions to be made on many levels, from window treatments to plumbing and everything in between. “People often don’t understand how many details are involved,” says MacPhee. “It’s not like HGTV.” With a roadmap in place to get her clients to their dream house, MacPhee ticked items off her list: a light and airy color palette, user-friendly finishes and fabrics, a variety of textures. She guided her clients but no decision was made without their approval.

A soothing blue-and-white palette was chosen for the master bedroom.
“My goal is to develop a level of trust,” says the designer. “I am their advocate.” Drilling down to the specifics, seafoam, subtle blues, neutrals and soft silver shades dominate in the Great Room and play off surfaces like the distressed white dining table and stacked stone veneer of the fireplace. Wide-plank engineered hardwood floors are both attractive and durable. Translucent drapes filter the natural light that pours through big windows and folding glass doors that bring the outside in. A mere 120 feet from the Atlantic, the Robinsons’ house rises out of the dunes looking not unlike a ship perched atop ocean swells. Its 3,000-squarefoot volume spread over three levels is more vertical than horizontal, as the structure is built on the footprint of the modest 1940s ranch it replaced. Not a huge home by today’s standards, it’s one where “every single inch matters,” observes MacPhee, whose acuity as a creative problem-solver reveals itself throughout the home in, for instance, clever storage solutions. “Scale is especially important when you have to fit everything in without having the home feel overcrowded and cluttered,” she adds. “There has to be balance.” Take the great room’s lofty tray ceiling, for example. While a high-backed sofa and chairs would have fit the room’s height, they may have interfered with the spectacular ocean view. On the other hand, keeping the furniture low creates what could have become an overly airy space. MacPhee’s

solution? Grasscloth on the ceiling imbues a warmth that paint never could, making the room feel more intimate without causing six-foot-two-inch Jeff to feel claustrophobic. On the third-floor, lower ceilings have a variety of angles and eaves that reflect the varied rooflines above. While it’s a delightful play and sleep space for the Robinsons’ grandchildren, tricked out with cushions in user-friendly fabrics, it’s also comfortable for adults, especially if there’s a need for overflow sleeping space. Adin Weatherley, MacPhee’s 25-year-old daughter who works hand-in-hand with her mother, was instrumental in designing this space, particularly ironing out details from a millennial’s point of view. “People her age will take the industry to the next level,” notes MacPhee, alluding to the age group’s facility with technology. Today, incorporating USB ports and outlets for electronic devices into a home’s design is as essential as measuring correctly for furniture. So is clear and frequent communication—among the team of professionals and with the clients—if you hope to achieve an outcome equal to the Robinsons’. “We chose Irina for her experience, her portfolio, the way she communicated that it was about “us’ and what we loved,” says Jeff. “It was pretty clear, pretty quickly, that she would create a home that would be in our family for generations.” CHL Pastiche of Cape Cod 8 South Street, Dennis Port, MA 02639

TRANSITIONAL TRANSFORMATIONS Television host PJ Antonik is an expert on home transformations. With his wife Lizzy, business partner and lead designer, their lives have transitioned, and it’s all good.
IF
YOU’RE FAMILIAR with the real estate
community on the South Shore you probably have seen one name pop up more and more. Oak Development & Design (Oak) has been rapidly spreading their name and has done so quite differently than most build and design firms. Oak was started by entrepreneurs PJ and Lizzy
Antonik in 2015. PJ was working as a marketing and sales executive, struggling to pull himself out of debt from student loans. PJ’s strong family background in construction management and real estate was the springboard for his idea of flipping a house off Rockland Street in Hingham with a spare $50K that he and Lizzy had run into. Could he have applied that extra money to the loans? Sure. However, PJ saw a bigger opportunity to make their money work for them. He took the risk and thus began his first venture in real estate development. For the next nine months, he worked his day job in Acton, MA and then made the commute down to Hingham every Friday evening. He worked 7 days a week transforming a short sale into a turn-key home that sold in two weeks. As a result, he knocked out half of his loans in one shot and thought to himself, “maybe we should do it again?” Thus Oak DD was born. What PJ didn’t realize was that during that first project he had set the foundation for long term business. He told himself that he wanted three things to happen during that first build:

1 - Everyone would get paid the day they gave him a bill. 2 - He wanted to be known for quality, rather than someone who comes in and installs the cheapest finishes and runs away. 3 - He would treat everyone involved with respect and gratitude along the way. These three ideas have become the scaffolding of Oak DD. Fast forward 5 years, over a dozen builds and two kids later and Oak DD is one of the fastest-growing spec home outfits on the South Shore. Oak specializes in finding the worst of the worst and turning them into beautiful, turn-

key, custom homes. What separates them from the rest of the crowd in their competitive world is their attention to detail and timelines. “We work tirelessly to find the right partners to work with and people who can move at the speed we expect,” says PJ. “Obviously, the most important thing for us is quality, but the second most important thing is not wasting any time throughout the process. Remember,

of complex building requirements. Having come out of college with a degree in video/television PJ thought, “Why not start documenting this journey?” After a year of filming, PJ started a home renovation TV series called “Heart of Oak” in 2018. The series aired on NESN this past spring. The show highlights the Oak DD team as they navigate their everyday, real-life journey through the risks and rewards of building homes from the ground up. This is all while raising a family and juggling two rapidly growing businesses! What sets Oak Development and Design apart is they don’t hyper-focus on any one type of project as a spec build. “I like to think I’m in the business of Real Estate, I’m not a house flipper,” says PJ on his approach to his business model. “If we find a house that just needs a facelift then, sure, we’ll flip it, but our version of a flip is to send our demo crew in and fully gut the thing.

nce Oak DD started to grow its employee base, PJ saw a need for a physical office space; working out of his truck was just not going to cut it any longer. Refusing to pay rent, PJ struggled to bring an ugly metal job site trailer to his projects. “It just wasn’t on brand,” PJ explains. Naturally, he started to think outside the box and thought ‘why can’t we have a job site trailer that looks great, and can function as our showroom?’ What better way to accomplish this than a tiny house. “I always wanted to build a tiny house but had no reason to do it. This gave me an excuse!” PJ laughs. The result - a fully functioning tiny home on wheels that acts as the company office as well as a showroom for meetings with potential buyers. “What I did not realize was how many people would love it, and as a result, it ended up being way bigger of a marketing piece than I ever expected. I can tell you this though - it was a TON of work to build and I can guarantee we will not be going into the tiny house business!” For more information go to: www.oakdd.com Contact: pj@oakdd.com Follow our television series at: www.heartofoaktv.com Instagram - @heartofoaktv Facebook - @heartofoaktv

New England Home Shows Makes Home Improvements Easy
I
N THE NEW YEAR, everyone has a variety of different resolutions that they try their best to stick to. Some people have resolutions pertaining to their career, their overall health and wellness or their financial state. A lot of people, especially homeowners, will set resolutions pertaining to home renovations that they have been meaning to get to or can finally afford to make happen. If you are looking to renovate your home but you are not sure where to start, think about adding a home show to your calendar. Why attend a home show? Here are a few reasons how this will help you align on your home renovations:
· You will be inspired. First and foremost, home shows will help to inspire you for both interior and exterior renovations. You may see some new ideas that you had not previously thought
of, and you may learn different techniques on how to accomplish these renovations. There is no such thing as too many ideas, especially when it comes to how to design your home.
·
You can compare prices. If there are a few items or ideas that you have had your mind on, you can visit home shows to compare different prices and see where you can get the best price for what you are thinking about. This is a smart move especially before making those final purchases, to make sure you’re getting “the best bang for your buck!”
· You can meet contractors. At many home shows, a lot of contractors will attend, which is a great opportunity for relationship building. You never know, you could meet the perfect Phone: 978-506-5189 contractor for your home renovations, or even a complete rebuild! Email: Sales@Lei-Smartalex.com BY BRITTANY RAYBURN www.lei-smartalex

HE SOUTH COAST OF MASSACHUSETTS extends from Cape Cod on the east to the Rhode Island border on the west, with much of the land sitting along Buzzards Bay. The region is full of farms, wineries, beaches, and history, providing a far more relaxing environment than the major cities on the nation’s east coast. From the Southcoast you can be in Boston, Providence, Cape Cod, the East Bay including Bristol and Newport, RI or even Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket and Elizabeth Islands all in less than one hour. For prime proximity, there are few places on the East Coast that can match the Southcoast region for living. For decades this diamond in the rough has gone unnoticed by the masses throughout New England. The Southcoast is open for business, open for living and has opened the eyes of many who have found a better life in this emerging region of Massachusetts. BY TIMOTHY BRANCO

About Massachusetts’ South Coast The region as a whole has a population of a little over 300,000, with over a third of its population living along Buzzards Bay in the New Bedford area. The South Coast is a diverse part of the country with both wealthy and blue-collar areas, fantastic scenery, and some of the nation’s best fishing along its expansive coastline. If you’re considering a move to one of the towns on the South Coast, you can expect a far different lifestyle than in a big city, but this way of life binds you to your community in a way that urban centers struggle to replicate. When people move to the South Coast, they get to enjoy many amenities, from the landscape to arts to culture and more. The Southcoast offers proximity to the ocean, mountains and plenty of sites and activities to explore. Affordable homes, great schools, and uncrowded neighborhoods make the region an optimal place to raise a family within tight-knit communities creating an ideal work-life balance. Whether you’re interested in history, trying out new restaurants or enjoying a relaxing weekend on the beach, there is plenty for you to love about the South Coast. The area embraces diversity and cultural traditions with food, celebrations and festivals in every season. The Southcoast is a place where you will find multi-million dollar coastal estates, historic city residences, country properties

Because of the nature of its geographical location it is convenient to the major metropolitan cities of both Boston and Providence. Currently the market across the area remains very strong.

2019 with overall sales down around 2%. However, the luxury market,

compared to 8 in 2018. This growth in the luxury market helped propel the
median price point of all sales up 4%. The increase in price has also had an impact on the

In the 19th century, Fall River was the leading textile-producing city in the country with hundreds of mills operating. Today stately historic homes and repurposed mill properties are now retail and residential centers for residents. Just south of Fall River, there is a small section of Rhode Island that is cut off from the rest of the state, here you’ll find Tiverton and Little Compton, RI. They were once part of Mass Bay Colony and are more connected to Massachusetts by bordering communities than Rhode Island. Both Tiverton and Little Compton are beautiful seaside towns and popular summer home communities along the mouth of the Taunton River and the Sakonnet River.

Cape Coral is home to progressive education facilities and an extensive parks and recreation networks. Located on Florida’s Gulf of Mexico, Cape Coral is a “waterfront wonderland.” 10601.26.4.Gobbi.indd 1 The Cape Coral housing market is always active.

Healthier Looking Hair & Skin Many people do not realize the small daily things that you can do to your hair and skin to keep it healthy and looking more alive than ever. Using products with more natural ingredients can ultimately create less work for you over time. Here are a few simple tips to keep your hair and skin happy, especially while the outside temperatures are low. BY MEGAN WARD 6 2 COASTALHOMELIFE .CO M
J A N UARY • FEB RUARY 2020
Skin
Moisturize twice a day. Especially in the winter months when your skin dries out more easily. When moisturizing your face, the most appropriate time is 3 minutes after you get out of the shower. Selecting a moisturizer that is best for your skin type and the time of year is vital to how your skin will appear. Mario Badescu Skin Care allows you to select products based on your skin with simple and gentle ingredients. www.mariobadescu.com | $24-28 t
Along with using the proper moisturizer, avoid taking long hot showers that dry out your skin, especially during the cold season. Avoiding sugar can also have a surprising effect on your skin’s appearance. Refined sugar and processed foods have a large impact on acne and inflammation. Avoiding sugar altogether not only prevents cavities, but clears up your skin, making it less oily too. Instead, replace your sugar fix with lemon water or fresh fruits.
JANUARY • FEBRUARY 2020
Hair There are many misconceptions around washing your hair, but believe it or not, you should not clean your hair every day. This will help to preserve the natural oils on your scalp, keeping your hair moisturized and ultimately less greasy in the long run! It is also important to use a sulfate and paraben free shampoo when you do wash your hair. Sulfates remove the natural moisture from your hair and can dry it out more easily. A product such as Love Beauty and Planet has a variety of hair products without parabens and sulfate for every hair type. lovebeautyandplanet.com | $ varies

Spraying a heat protectant before using heat on your hair can make or break your hair health. Once I started using a heat protectant before straightening my hair, it made my naturally curly hair much more healthy and less ‘dead’ looking. Whether you are using a blow dryer, straightener or a curling iron, a heat protectant such as the CHI 44 Iron Guard Thermal Protection Spray can do wonders to your natural hair’s appearance. chi.com | $6.50 - $16 t
