Realtor: Nykki - Middleburg, FL
Lisa and Amber are best friends with a bond built on long beach walks, a shared sense of humor, and a whole lot of time together thanks to their husbands being on the road most of the year as touring musicians. While the guys are out playing shows, these two have created their own rhythm at home. Originally from Dallas and South Carolina respectively, these self-proclaimed “flossy” girly-girls now live in Florida and are totally joined at the hip. What started as the occasional hangout has turned into a real sisterhood, and now, Lisa is relying on Amber to be a second set of eyes and ears as she realizes a lifelong dream: buying a beach house. With their husbands away, they’ve got the freedom—and the say-so—to pick a place perfect for cocktails, outdoor BBQs, and all that life on the coast affords.
For Lisa, the dream of a beach house is all about peace and escape. She wants a space that feels like a retreat, somewhere she can relax, host her daughter, and create new memories away from the noise of daily life. Amber’s on board to help her find it, and as her closest confidante, she’s not just tagging along—she’s helping lead the charge. The two of them see this as more than just a home search; it’s an adventure they get to share and the potential of an oasis replete with access to the sorts of activities they love: beach walks, tanning, and swimming.
They’re focused on the north Florida coast, close enough to their everyday lives, but far enough to feel like they’ve stepped into vacation. Their budget is $500,000, and while they agree on most things, like wanting something cozy, light-filled, and low-stress; Lisa tends to be the practical one, while Amber brings more of the big-picture vision and energy.
Their biggest challenge might just be narrowing down the options. Lisa wants something that feels move-in ready, while Amber is encouraging her to have a little vision, she prefers homes that you can make your own.This beach house isn’t just about sun and sand. It’s about celebrating their friendship, stepping into something of their own, and making the most of the freedom they’ve got while their husbands are out chasing their own dreams.
