John and Rayanne are a charming couple from the North who’ve officially declared war on winter. After years of freezing temps and icy commutes, they’re ready to embrace the sunshine and serenity of Florida’s Gulf Coast, specifically the peaceful, wildlife-filled shores of Fort Myers. Both are engineers, usually relegated to a life behind screen, so to combat indoor fatigue they try to go outside as much as possible. However, the bad weather, cold temps and rain make exploring outside difficult. The solution? A place at the beach! Nature lovers through and through, they dream of morning shell hunts, spotting dolphins and manatees from their porch, and hiking nearby trails with the ocean breeze at their backs. Their ideal beach home? Small, simple, absolutely no maintenance and of course directly on the pristine white sand beach of Ft Myers.
But at their price point, most homes are raised, which brings up a big issue: John loves a high-up view, while Rayanne is terrified of heights. John’s perfect scenario would be a pent house or an extremely high floor, whereas Rayanne get’s weak in the knees over heights and would prefer a ground floor. However, Rayanne admits that she is open to a high-floor beach home IF she gets her awe-inspiring ocean sunset view! That isn’t the only home topic they differ on. She wants a more refined beach home with higher end finishes and he wants to be budget conscious and look for something less costly. Either way, for John and Rayanne this home is the beginning of a new chapter filled with sunshine, sea air, and a little bit of healthy negotiating.
