    Lee - Grayton House in Southern Living, Cottage Living

    Wow! There is an eight page layout and article on the house built by Paige and Walton Lee in Grayton. I'm reading it now. Apparently they tore down a house to build this one, but kept the original feel of the neighborhood. They really have a beautiful home!

    I saw it in the doctor's office! I need to go out and buy a copy for my house porn collection. What a sweet house. Hubby and I brought the kids to the Squeeze Me In (located just off DeFuniak) a couple of years ago and saw that house being built. So cute. Love what they did to the interior. The perfect beach house, indeed! And truly great that it fits in so well to its surroundings. Very classy.

    I saw that article, too, and thought they did a really nice job. It's a super family home and works well in Grayton Beach.

    Don't you just love Karen and Rep? Jessifunn was nice enough to introduce us to them and we all had a great bike ride together last spring. Karen was telling me about the article.

    BC, thanks for the heads-up; I bought it yesterday.
    Can anyone tell me exactly where/on which street this house is located?

    I'm pretty sure it is the one I am thinking of, and if it is, it is located on Defuniak St. about a block and a half from the beach. It is in an area with a lot of little cottages.

    Yes, we must. Jdarg and family thought the world of you when they met you last month at the beach, and any rave from them is good enough for me! Now if I can just sqeeze in one more trip to SoWal before school starts up in mid-August, I will be a happy gull. Darn renters. Why do they need end-of-summer vacations anyway? I need my condo more than they do!

    a SOWAL sighting

    I caught a glimps of a SOWAL bumper sticker in the latest issue of Coastal Living Magazine. How much did Kurt have to pay for that little bit of publicity

    I have the July-August issue of Coastal Magazine on my desk actually, and I do not see anything. Must be Coastal Cottage.

    I saw the article and the pic and it was Cottage Living since I don't get coastal living.

    It was a house in Grayton beach that was featured.

    WOOOPS! I'm sorry. It was Cottage Living!!! But I don't see why Coastal Living doesn't pick up the story as well! It's on page 73 -- a story on a house in Grayton owned by Paige and Walton Lee. (Beautiful house, by the way!)

    None the less. . . .way to go Kurt!

    Re: a SOWAL sighting

    I get Cottage Living and I remember the article about that house. I just looked up the article and the sticker (it's the oval SoWal one) is on the bumper of the SUV/Jeep/whatever that car is (I'm not a car person) with 3 kids and a dog sitting in the back). Very cute photo. The family is Paige and Walton Lee and the kids are Spencer, Murphy and Elizabeth with their dog Harley. the article is on pages 72 - 138. I'll send you the article, Kurt.

    By the way, I really like Cottage Living magazine (clearly their photographer has a very good eye...)

    Grayton House in So. Living

    Just opened the So. Living for June and found a nice article on the Lee's house in GB. I was so excited to see the "SoWal" sticker on their bumper, however it is not the same as the stickers I have. Wish they had one of Kurt's design. Nice house though.
