Gulf Breeze: Navy Cove House

The dwelling was a typical Ranch style home but architect, Carter Quina designed a new exterior, incorporating post-modern elements. [Click here to learn more about the architectural firm.](http://www.qgarchitects.com/)

The home is located on a cul-de-sac with water on two sides. This is the southern facade of the house.
The great room has a view overlooking Escambia Bay facing north.
The back porch view shows the shallow width of Dead Man's Island. The bay side of the island has narrow dune formations. Sea grasses and trees are the vegetation on the channel side of the island.
The small boat house can be seen in the center of the photograph. Dead Man's Island is a narrow strip of land separating Escambia Bay from the channel.
The stairs are located on the east side of the house. The boat ramp for access to the bay can be seen on the right of the picture.
The walkway to the bay and a view of Dead Man's Island can be seen in the center of the photograph.
The 180 degree view of the waterfront shows the boat house on the right and the deck swing on the left of the frame. The house is barely visible in the center.
A reverse of the above panorama reveals the outline of the simple spoil island.
The house is visible in the upper right of the frame. The photograph is taken from the vantage point of the channel, facing southeast. The swing is on the lower right of the frame.
Dead Man's Island is the left bank of the channel leading out into Escambia Bay.
Dead Man's Island is directly across the channel from the house. Palms, sea grass and small trees grow on the island.
A small boat is visible in the center frame. Small rocks form a retaining wall along the south side of the channel.
This is the facade of the home facing Escambia Bay.
