Wellesley Drive Residence by Reagan & Andre Architecture Studio brings Santa Barbara flair to a young family’s home. Inspired by Spanish Revival and Mediterranean styles, it balances indoor–outdoor living, comfort, and timeless elegance. From its red tile roof to vibrant textiles, every detail evokes a soothing beachside ambiance.
Mediterranean Exterior and Flowing Patios
First, the off-white stucco walls and classic red tile roof define the home’s façade. Consequently, walkways link multiple outdoor patios, creating seamless transitions from the living room to sun-drenched lounge areas. Moreover, wrought-iron light fixtures and decorative arches reinforce the Mediterranean spirit.
Warm, Wood-Beamed Interiors
Next, inside Wellesley Drive Residence, exposed wood beams stretch across high ceilings, adding structural drama and rustic warmth. In addition, a central stone fireplace anchors the living area, inviting family gatherings on cool evenings. Furthermore, large sliding doors flood the space with light and open fully to the gardens beyond.
Vibrant Textiles and Soothing Beach Tones
Meanwhile, vibrant textiles—turquoise cushions, coral throws, and sandy rugs—layer warmth and character over neutral floors. As a result, each room feels both lively and restful. Likewise, the color palette—soft blues, sandy beiges, and crisp whites—recalls coastal panoramas and keeps the atmosphere calm for everyday family life.
Family-Centered Comfort and Timeless Elegance
Finally, this home caters to a young family of four with flexible spaces for play, work, and relaxation. The master suite opens to a private patio, while bedrooms overlook flowering courtyards. Ultimately, Wellesley Drive Residence proves that classic Mediterranean design can suit modern living—offering both enduring style and effortless comfort.
